I bet you have bought appliances throughout the years and no matter how wonderful they were made out to be - they inevitably ended up locked away in the back of some cupboard. How many gadgets have you bought like that - how about all those slice and dice gadgets you have purchased and yet you NOW still reach for the knife when preparing food. It is just to hard sometimes to get them out, clean them and then put them away. Easier to grab a knife. Our coffee machine on the other hand has sat on our kitchen bench for over 4 years now and I can honestly say that with the exception of holidays away from home, the machine has been used practically every day. This is one machine that won't be locked away at the back of some cupboard. Most Coffee Machines are very pleasing to look at and having one on your bench is a big plus - they are very compact and look great, fitting well in any kitchen. Each morning my husband rises first and heads off to the kitchen to make coffee, so for the last four years I have been spoiled with my morning coffee. So I have the choice of sipping my wonderful coffee in bed or heading off to my favourite place to enjoy my morning 'cuppa'. It is amazing to me that we can have such a machine and that it is affordable to most people, as coffee machines can range from very cheap to extremely expensive. However we as consumers are able to buy machines of high quality and with amazing technology - until only recently only available in coffee shops and restaurants. We only buy whole beans for our machine, we can use ground coffee as well, but prefer to have the machine grind the coffee during the coffee-making process. This ensures that the coffee is fresh and tasty and OH what a wonderful smell that permeates throughout the house. Since our coffee machine moved in I have never had an instant coffee, just the thought of it make me cringe. My coffee of choice is a flat white or a cappuccino, but most machines can make a variety of coffee styles to suit your tastes, e.g. latte's, long black, etc. Coffee Machines are a great bonus when someone comes to visit - as my husband has virtually adopted it, I get to sit and chat while he makes the coffees for our guests - yes our coffee machine is a big hit with our family and friends. It always feels good to sit down and sip on a wonderful coffee that is just like one bought in a coffee shop, sitting down in your favourite place with a great book. It doesn't get much better than that. Then there is the cost savings - although we still love to occasionally visit a coffee shop, our costs are greatly reduced having our machine at home. I also feel that fresh coffee beans have to be much better for you than a jar of instant coffee, just going by the smell and the taste it just feels right. Coffee has lots of health benefits, but of course everything in moderation - it is packed with antioxidants and even has weight loss benefits. Coffee can increase your metabolism, control your appetite and can even help detoxify your body. Did
Slide 2: you know that there is a growing body of research that says coffee drinkers are less likely to have type 2 Diabetes, Parkinson's disease and Dementia. Although this is very promising, it doesn't give you a green light to over-indulge. Another great thing I love about having our machine, is the fact that when we visit markets or get to travel, we can pick up lots of different gourmet coffee beans, as well as flavoured beans and some specialty coffees. So my advice is if your thinking of purchasing a Coffee Machine, go ahead and check them out - I am sure you can find one that would suit your budget. The cost of our machine was around AUD$790, but it has certainly paid for itself over the four years, especially when you take into consideration that a standard trip to a coffee shop normally sets you back between $15 and $30. Have yourself a nice coffee today, don't rush it - sit, sip and contemplate. Enjoy the moment, look around and take in your surrounding, sip your coffee slowly and taste every mouthful - make it your special part of the day to just spend 10 or so minutes in your own little world - it will do you a world of good. ==== ==== For Coffee Machines Reviews and Articles Check out this link http://home-coffee-machines.net ==== ====
