A couple months ago, my wife and I decided to up our coffee game.
We ended up getting a nice <a href="https://www.oxo.com/conical-burr-coffee-grinder.html">OXO Coffee Grinder</a> with the hopes of trying different coffee beans. We started small getting some local beans, but then I got it into my head to look into a coffee subscription service. We ended up going with <a href="https://www.drinktrade.com/">Trade</a> and for the last several months have been getting a new bag delivered to us every other week from various roasters from across the country.
I&#39;d like to say it stopped there, but then we decided it would be a good time to get an espresso machine. We ended up getting the <a href="https://www.breville.com/us/en/products/espresso/bes500.html">Breville Bambino Plus</a>. I can&#39;t say I have any regrets with that decision. Being able to make a latte at home is convenient. It takes a little more work than simply pressing the brew button on my coffee maker, but they&#39;re delicious. Lauren even was able to make a vanilla simple syrup to up the latte game. I&#39;m hoping to be able to get using the machine down to a science enough that I can quickly and easily add some espresso shots to my coffee when I need that extra oomph in the morning.
Over the last several months, we&#39;ve gotten some coffee beans we&#39;ve really liked and it&#39;s nice to be able to try some coffee from shops we otherwise wouldn&#39;t be able try. If you like coffee and want to give a coffee service a try, I&#39;d highly recommend it. We&#39;ve been happy with <a href="https://www.drinktrade.com/">Trade</a>, but there are plenty of others out there.
Also, thanks to the <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/wirecutter/">Wirecutter</a> for helping figure out what gear was best for us.
