A special place...

A special coffee maker ratings for a special place
From where I live, a tiny kitchen is not uncommon. Tabletop large enough to fill more than a few appliances is a rare sight indeed. Thus placing my KRUPS XP5080 on my kitchen table (permanently too!) testify its importance to my life. Whether is it in the morning (when the night before seemed so abrupt and the day ahead lies so indefinitely) or in the evening when burning the midnight oil is in the agenda, my coffee machine never fails to give me that perfect dose of caffein fix. Simple and easy to use, it has served me many years, faithfully churning out cups of frothy aromatic coffee, and thick foamy layer of steam milk to go with it. It is belittling that its price was a humble US$200 (approx), but its worth and value can never be measured, for it sits in a special place in my heart, and kitchen table.
