You're right about hotel coffee by: Nick (The Coffee Detective)
Glenn, hi
Thanks for the comment. And you're right about hotel espresso. I'm often amazed and disappointed by the terrible espresso drinks I get at hotels. They have wonderful, expensive espresso machines and simply don't know how to use them.
Recently I was served a cappuccino that comprised a terrible espresso base, a light milk froth...but no milk. i.e. a bad shot of espresso with a bit of froth on top! It was disgusting.

Aeropress has saved me too by: Glenn
I travel a lot for business and always take my Aeropress, a grinder and my beans that I am drinking that week.
Hotel coffee leaves a lot to be desired and sadly most staff cannot use their commercial espresso machines to extract a shot that even comes close to that made with an Aeropress.
All reviews of coffee gear are conducted by me, Nick
Usborne, after trying the equipment for at least one week. For all coffee the
reviews, the beans are ground and tasted by me, with help from my wife. None of
our reviews are paid for.
