Grabbed a can of this last time I was in the local Publix. Had read it's a good cup through the AeroPress. Turns out that's correct! Very tasty cuppa!

Illy is very readily available in Italy. We lived in Milan from mid 2010 to mid 2011 and consumed many gallons of Illy coffee made in our French Press coffeemaker from IKEA. Timely memory as we were there during Christmas and New Years 2010/2011. Spent 4 day long weekend in Florence to enjoy bringing in the new year with some good friends who were there on assignment with us.
I recall one of your posts that you spent some time in Italy too. Really a cool
place! Il dolce far niente from my signature means loosely the sweetness of doing nothing! I was well trained in that lifestyle after our stay. Thanks for listening. Ciao.
Yeah I loved it there. If I could live anywhere it would be Trieste. Just an amazing city.Illy is very readily available in Italy.

Same thing. The “Go” is just a smaller version of the original.
Ok thank you. So the quality is the same? I like the way the go can all.be stored together. It looks like it may be more convenient.. Also it's only 2 dollars different between the two. Do you think it's worth 2$ more for the go ?
You can’t go wrong with either. Yes the quality is the same. I have both and use the original more often than the Go but if you travel often I can see where the Go would work better for you.
I use mine mostly at work. Have a small back pack that I keep everything in; AeroPress and accessories, hand grinder, small digital scales , thermometer for the kettle and filters. Doesn’t take up a lot of room. Here’s what I use

Mmmm coffee this morning. Fresh beans from @BarberDave and the new pot from my wife. I like the coffee this way!
Is that a Chemex?
Different brand but same style. This one will eventually end up in the motorhome so didn't want to risk breaking a Chemex brand. But needed to make sure it worked
it does

After returning to our (new) french press for a few coffees, my wife has been asking for a moka pot coffee to start her day and expressed interest in an Expresso (sic ) machine. Looking at the Breville Cafe Roma as an espresso intro and, from what I can tell, it seems to be a great starter without breaking the bank.

The espresso machine was my gift last year! It's still running strong. I am up to 6 different ways in our home to make coffee.
