 i just got a nescafe dulce gusto today... my espresso is as good or equal to what i pay more for at the local cafes with their 1kEUR+ machines

just need the baby "bica" cups to go with it now

the best coffee is a shot, in a heated small ceramic cup, sipped slowly, everything else is extravagance and decadence 😀

 yeah i think what makes it better is the good quality coffee... the two main brands you see here in #madeira for coffee are Delta and Sical, and there was another one... Torrie - these are the three you see most often in the numerous cafes dotted around the island

best coffee i have ever enjoyed has always been Lavazza Oro and this Buondi stuff i got to start with for my machine is pretty much high quality also, i'll have to search around for options

everything else you get at cafes here includes UHT milk, which is an abomination
