Ah yes...i lusted after one of those a few years ago...unfortunately those are pretty sought after...mid century ,atomic age stuff. That is what we call machine age art.!!!!
Exactly! Taste is the primary thing. The last one makes coffee of the same taste as a regular moka maker of the Bialetti type, so absolutely OK. Quite frankly, I think the best coffe is made in a French press coffee maker. That's the type I use the most. With freshly ground beans, of course, and carefully monitored water temp when poured on it.
@Carlsson Sorry to do this to you again... My 1984 Atomic coffee maker still in use every day... Cheers Tony
Cruel! I'm envious of all of that ..table ,chairs and the Bush let alone the machines! Nice pics guys!
Pinecone weights, check, maple leaves, check, cuckoo, check. Looks like I've got the same thing. Funny I was just playing with this at the weekend, trying to decide it's fate, I thing it's going in the loft. No atomic coffee pots though sadly.
Nice Patina!... it belongs out of its box.I would like to see a pic of it in the loft! Loft? Does that mean just upstairs?
You're an evil man! Nah! I can bare to see that picture once again. It's a very nice apparatus, and a great view.
We like this thread direction. Lately my Mochas have been producing bitter results, have my tastes changed? Have my ingredients changed? - I'm buying the same stuff. Don't know yet... How about this for a machine message ? I suppose it was moaning about being empty... Sweden - date as shown. It made really good coffee when it worked.
And you use the same water as before, i.e. you haven't changed locality? Just out of curiosity... why are you in Sweden?
Right. Lack of coffee! Is that British for coffee empty? Seriously? Maybe you have to go back further than 2008 to reset it? sir...what ya got there is a right lack of coffee!
Yes, I found the machine message very amusing. Apparently the software developer had a sense of humour! There are other photos on the internet so I'm not the only one who liked it. No I haven't changed the water supply and I think the theory to go with must be over extraction. As far as I know I'm doing anything differently but there is always the excuse for another test. I have some Mollbergs Blandning Hela Bönor to use for that which neatly comes around to Christer's question about how come I'm in Sweden - work. I do one week in UK and one week in Kista, Stockholm, turn and turn about - it's a lot of fun but too many hours are spent on trains and planes.
Aha. Work in Kista. Do you work in the telecom area or similar? Mollbergs blandning (not Möllbergs ) is a nice one from Zoega. I use Zoega coffee myself, and Mollbergs blandning is often the choice I make.
Bah I've been called out guilty as charged m'lud. Yes I spotted the mistake and corrected it. I just made a very slow pot and ended it early. Much improved.
