Nespresso - Yes!
Coffee, and more. Just off-topic discussion. Kick up your feet and have a cup.

@stringy I looked into making Turkish (aka Greek) coffee, but one of the problems is you need a very fine grind (much finer than even espresso) so you need a specialist grinder to make it (and they're expensive) so I gave up on the idea.

Just buy it pre-packed, don't worry about getting it any other way.

Like I said, Charalambous is my favourite (Bravo is the cheapest and most popular, but it's nowhere near as good). You can get it in different sized packs in mediterranean delis.

If anyone's interested I'll post the method for making it (I worked in a Greek restaurant in 1985)

Oh, I am just enjoying my simple Nespresso. I have a cup of regular brew with fresh ground coffee in the morning, then it is my Nespresso. Quick, easy, and tastes great to us.
