Coffee and submarines

Monday, August 15, 2005

Although I’m currently on a decaf kick (helps me wake at odd hours of the night, when Fionnuala calls), I’ve always had a yen for a good espresso machine.

Over at Engagdet, there’s some spirited debate on the topic.

It seems the Rancilio Silva (shown) has a lot of admirers. And it looks like a bit of an Italian submarine. Which is interesting, given the rather spectacular efforts now underway to move just such an item from Cremona to downtown Milan.

But given the Euro/Dollar exchange rate, it sure is pricey (the espresso machine, that is, not the submarine).

Update: I think I may have got into something I can’t stop: http://www.coffeegeek.com/
