I am fortunate enough to have the option to work from home several days a week. Extra nice is the coffee at home is much much tastier than in the office :D

I prepared this "latte macchiato" style drink with a 4-cup moka pot, 16g of store-bought high roast coffee beans (not particularly good), 170mL water. 100mL milk, warmed in the microwave, foamed with a small electric whisk.

Easy to prepare at home with simple tools. I don't have any fancy espresso machine 😥 Result looks good, tastes not bad either. What hold it back in terms of flavor is the quality of the beans. I am just trying to get through this bag quickly as to not waste.

I am able to make better than coffee shop's espresso with my de'longhi Dedica. I had to upgrade the handle (to a bottomless portafilter) and tamper though. I use a bodum burr grinder for my coffee. took a bit of playing with the coffee weight to get what i wanted but once I dialed in it made me a coffee snob.
