Coffee cappuccino machine

Post by tamada » October 11, 2022, 8:47 am

Mrs tam had a nice vacation away from her rels and enjoyed her morning cappuccino. She's back home and fed up with the squatters getting into her preferred 3-in-1 so she's stopped buying them and foregoing morning coffee. I am wanting to get her a simple to operate, non-capsule coffee machine where she can make her own cappuccinos and the rest of the buggers can try and steal Yai's red cup dross.

Anyone bought something not too fancy or expensive that can make a decent cappuccino? Online or local is fine.

Coffee snobs will hate this but I buy the 23-1 coffee sachets. I mix in a spoon or two of Moccona instant (although no sugar or dairy, it tastes too sweet for me). I pour in about 16 oz of boiling water mix the hit it with an Electrolux hand mixer and presto a pretty good cappuccino style large coffee. That's my morning sorted and helps with hunger pains too.

It can be frothed up with most any mixer/blender/aggressive stirring for the right effect.

I take the little 23-1 sachets with me when traveling too. If you want to try a couple, let me know.

Good tips, thanks. The pods would be a good way of keeping the grubs from freeloading on the coffee but it doesn't make frothy coffee. However, I picked up a cheap frother thingmie from the 'Middle of Lidl' last year so that may be the solution.

Thanks for DM's rapid intervention, I grabbed the last Take-5 machine from Col. The coffee bags ordered on lazada arrived this morning and Mrs tam is very, very happy with her frothy coffee.
