Although people say it's hard to make siphon coffee, it's really not - what's a pain is the alcohol burner that comes with it. Although I really didn't want to shell out more $$, I decided to take the plunge and boy what a difference. So worth it if you make siphon coffee. Takes all the hassle out - now it's an everyday thing, not a weekend thing. Note, I do pre-boil the water.
Ordered for the first time recently and it was a pleasure. This is by far the best price I found for illy capsules and they were at my door in 2 days! I'm a customer for life!

Thank-you for the product demos and great salesmanship. We love our Rocket Giotto and Baratza Vario grinder. Excellent combo that delivered superb results after a very brief opportunity to develop our skills (the machines were perfect but the new owners needed some adjustment). We appreciated the advice on accessories too! We'll definitely return to Espresso Planet during our next visit to TO. Cheers, P.G.
Select your grinder carefully! For espresso, the grinder is at least as important as the espresso machine itself. To make the perfect shot of espresso, a grinder with a large adjustment range is important. Lower cost grinders generally produce dust particles that can negatively influence extraction. Selecting a grinder to make regular coffee is easier as generally a coarser setting is acceptable.
