Using the Colombia from Highlander, I made 2 portions. One using the V60 Dripper and another using Aeropress. And then the last portion, Starbucks Instant Colombia.

    Not surprising. It’s a natural progression from an automatic machine. Pretty soon, they’ll have the 3-in-1′s and the 5-in-1′s.

    5-in-1???
    3-in-1 = Sugar + Creamer + Coffee
    What’s the other missing ingredients?

    Starbucks Columbia Instant tastes burnt, stale and flat.

    Hi Mrs Chan,
    Last night finally i have chance to show off my Vibiemme Double Domobar espresso machine with the coffee bean Highlander to my friend, not mistaken at least 50 shots my daughter was doing, some of them (not kaki kopi) also cannot stop of drinling,when time said good nite, they told me to noght sure cannot sleep because drink too many cup of my coffee, but worth it, they paid money also cannot get the taste they got it here, afterall next day is sunday, no worry. I was happy because what i paid for really wortrh it, good machine+good griner (Anfin Bet)+ still not a good barista already have such a good result, give us more time we sure will produce better result.
    thanks you for your good recommentation.
    Hope to see you soon and learn more from you about coffee
