\"\"…or: Why for heaven’s sake spend 2’300 CHF on a coffee machine? Well… let’s
\nstart with the story of ugly-tasting coffee and what I’ve tried so far. At work we
\nhave a Schaerer coffee machine that makes good coffee, real good coffee! But
\nfor home use, this machine is a tad too big and too expensive (7’250 CHF).<\/p>\n

Then in our office, we have a Nespresso machine which relies on the capsles from Nespresso. The machine is not too pricey (around 250 CHF) if you go with the smaller machines. Okay, but the coffee is rated about 0.50 CHF per espresso. And since this machines don’t have a too big water tank, you can’t opt-in for a normal coffee but only espressos (45ml). Their taste is good, no doubt, but espressos are strong and hefty. So not the optimal start into a morning if you have early shift and are tired. It’s like the Kaffee Onko commercial, where the fist comes out of the coffee mug. (See a parody of the commercial clip below).<\/p>\n
