My wife of 28 years and I have never enjoyed coffee. We've had a regular drip coffee maker for when family and friends would come over. My wife recently begun to drink coffee to keep here awake while doing some big projects. She'd add lots of sugar and milk to hide the coffee flavor. I thought to myself that she'd probably enjoy an espresso machine. I did my research and decided on a automatic machine sense we had no clue as to how to make an espresso. The Dinamica Plus has been a big hit with my wife. She absolutely loves it. And I have to say I've enjoyed a few drinks myself. This is very easy machine to use and has made my wife happy. So it's a win.
