I wanted to be the first to respond to your questions, especially since it was a rare thing to be "contemporary" in time with a post of yours. I usually find them later and sometimes too late, days later. I'm sorry and I apologize...
Our great poet, Blaga, once said: "I don't wish to crush the world's corolla of wonders..."
Sometimes I agree with that, sometimes I don't, but in the case of the coffee I don't want to know too much about recipes and techniques. So I don't know if what you're drinking is really a cappuccino, but it's very similar. It's a cappuccino for the ladies this one with cocoa or chocolate flavors. I'm thinking someone might say that any kind of cappuccino is a woman's drink... I've been drinking cappuccino only for a few years now and but I think it's too late to change, haha...
I really like your Solis Sage Barista Espresso Machine! It has a vintage shape. I have an automatic, modern, capsule-operated one and it doesn't make me too happy but it has an advantage. It forces me to go a few times a week to my favorite coffee shop, where the baristas are my friends and I drink the best cappuccino for my taste. It's also extra large, about twice the size of your cup.
A very nice photo at the end, you are dreamy and please let me think you are thinking of the holiday where you will meet a very blue sea again!
The photo on the end was first photo taken this year. Its one of the six I took then 😅. If one could say I was dreamy I was maybe...reflecting on the year it has just passed and the year is about to come.
No need to apologize. If you're apologizing, what I can I say? I am Always behind on others posts, yours included and I apologize too. I read many posts when I see them, but not commenting. 😳😐 not that I dont want to, but its quite challenging sometimes considering time...
I dont care much either if this is a cappuccino or a latte. 😅 its just perfect, thats important ♥️.
I dont think a cappuccino is a ladies thing...though some say it and believe it. I know men who drink coffee since forever and they preffer cappuccino. If you dont have a problem with milk, I dont see it why not. Its maybe more easy to take in, or simply because they prefer a milder taste. But yes, men usually drink espresso, a flat white or a long coffee.
The Solis is an older version, but its similar with what they have now on the market. My husband wanted this manual espresso machine. He did his research years back and said its a good option to enjoy a coffee at home. I dont know. I am not the one who research for days 🤣, he is. Now I am happy for it. I think that going out for a coffee makes your days better and happier, makes you enjoy your day, and plus forces you to take a walk, if walking ofc.
I appreciate your comment. I saw it yesterday but I havent the time to reply. I just did now to all the comment Ive got! It took me half an hour just to reply to all of them, I am grateful to receive so many comments! 🥰♥️♥️
Well, at the end and the beginning of the year, yes, your thoughts are much more complex than those dreaming of a seaside holiday.
I have also been drinking cappuccino for a few years now.
This manual espresso machine I think is a good choice and worth the time spent finding it.
It would seem that some people do not understand how hard it is to search for something on the net, many offers come to you, and you have to look for information and reviews, which are often antagonistic and more confusing than helpful. It's hard to make a decision. So you have to be happy that someone else is doing the work.
I have the same problems with replying to comments... and that's not productive. Pretty much everyone expects replies as soon as possible, otherwise they do not read or reply.
Yes, totally agree. Its hard these days and dont know what and how to trust buying all kind of products. I am myself same way as my husband at times, its just that he's way much better than me.
I try to reply as soon as possible too, but sometimes other things come at first and then I lose it.
The important thing is that we sometimes manage and enjoy exchanging a few words with people we like.
I now like to wish you a good and beautiful week!
Thank you! Have a lovely week yourself!
