  1. Coffee maker recommendations? by RKBA · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    On a somewhat(?) related note, I have a Gaggia Syncrony Digital coffee maker and it makes wonderful freshly ground coffee with a "crema" on it (it doesn't use paper filters so retains a *LOT* more flavor) but the water and coffee bean containers are too small and I can't use the steamer at the same time as I'm making coffee because the steamer doesn't have a separate heater tank.

    Does anyone know of a better coffee maker they can recommend?
