Espresso thoughts from South Italy

Posted on by

bleedingespresso.com is a site run by Michelle Fabio, an American writer and attorney who left the Anthracite Coal Region of Pennsylvania for her family’s ancestral village in Calabria, Italy.

Her site is filled with recipes, tips on blogging, book reviews, local happenings, and no non-sense thoughts. In the ‘Links’ area is a very large list of Italian bloggers and sites of interest to people thinking about moving to Italy. This hits home with us, while our family is from Sicily, we are looking to move to the northern area in the near future.

Automated Home Espresso Machine

Posted on by

Krups has introduced an espresso machine that is fully automatic. Add your water and coffee, and it will brew a cup to your specifications. The system is controlled through a digital menu with many options. Hardware features like a water filtration system and a steam nozzle for frothing milk are included. Krups states that you only have to clean the machine once a year too!

The Automatic Espresso Machine XP7225 is small enough to keep on your counter, 12.5 inches long, 9.5 inches wide, and 14.25 inches tall. Priced at $999.99 it is way more than the mini DIY machines but is amongst the lowest priced for full power Espresso Machines.
