Starbucks Barista home espresso machine – Part 1

Instructional video produced in 1998 to accompany Starbucks’ branded home espresso maker. It features the “revolutionary new” Rapporto filter, occasionally referred to here as the “porta-filter.”

Part One covers the basics of how to create espresso drinks with your new machine. The basic steps are: prime the machine, steam the milk, prime the machine again, and brew the coffee – either using ground espresso or Starbucks espresso pods. So simple, it takes 10 minutes to explain!

Daisaku Shoji Ltd. exhibited the “Handpresso” mobile espresso machine at the Autumn 2008 Tokyo International Gift Show.

The Handpresso works with high pressure extraction using an air pump and doesn’t require electricity, so it can be easily carried with you when traveling such as to the beach or mountains for enjoyment of high quality espresso anytime and anywhere. The Handpresso, which was developed in France, is a simple, compact unit with a hint of elegance and is cherished by espresso fans worldwide.

“It’s very simple to make espresso with the Handpresso. Simply pump the machine to a pressure of 16 bar, add coffee powder that comes in a small pack, and pour in some hot water. Now you can easily enjoy delicious espresso anytime no matter where you are.”

BUNN BTX-B ThermoFresh 10-Cup

There is a saying that you have to kiss a lot of frogs before you find your price. This has been our experience with other coffee makers….from Mr. Coffee 12-Cup Programmable Cone Coffeemaker, Black to Black & Decker to everything in-between. Finally we decided to bite-the-bullet and buy a Bunn. The Bunn BXT-B is not for everyone and if you don’t plan on brewing a pot every few days you may shun the fact that the Bunn is always on – it really is an expense.

One thing to recognize – please follow the initial set-up guide (I briefly describe it in the video) if you do NOT follow the initial set-up you will likely ruin your Bunn and void your warranty.

Things that I like

- Brew coffee fast…. like 3-minutes fast – I have time to brew a *few* pots in the morning prior to going to work.
- Great Taste – much better than the traditional drip-through method.
- The thermal carafe is awesome – Bunn states that it will keep the coffee hot for 90 minutes, but I find it drinkable for much longer than that.
- Doesn’t steam while brewing – makes it much safer for my cabinets
- Hot water on Demad – just pout the desired amount of water into the top and catch the hot water at the bottom (great for tea….. although it may be a touch warm for hot chocolate).
- Bunn quality – I expect to own this thing for 10 years

Things that you should know PRIOR to purchasing

- Again, this thing is always on… always pulling electricity
- Requires Bunn filters
- You probably will want to buy whole bean coffee such as Batdorf & Bronson Kenya AA, Whole Bean Coffee, 12-Ounce Bags (Pack of 3) and using a burr grinder. I use a cheap one Cuisinart DBM-8 Supreme Grind Automatic Burr Mill but it works well
- You may want to use filtered water
- Does require an occasional cleaning
- It is higher/taller than a standard coffee maker – save yourself some grief and make sure that you have a minimum of 16″ clearance
- The tank remains warm o the touch..always
- I would HIGHLY recommend in spending the extra $$$ and buying the thermal carafe – absolutely worth the extra expense
- Not programmable at all – no clock or fancy electronics on the Bunn BTX-B. It simply brews coffee

Final Verdict – If you make at least a pot a day of coffee this is likely to be an investment that will pay major dividends. Easily the best coffee maker that I have ever used.
