How did I ever live without a esspresso/cappuchino machine?

YAY! You'll love having one. I will never go back now.

Oh good! Nothing worse than having a new toy and you can't play with it, lol!

Those recipes look good, I may try some!

Johanna, so you make coffee in your coffee maker and when you want the froth milk on top, you use the appliance you showed us, right? Hmm interesting!

I don't buy "espresso" coffee for mine, although I have done, I just use the normal coffee. *GASP!* He heee.

Jenn you MUST post and tell us when you get yours. I LOVE it!

I make a normal pot of coffee. I steam my milk in the frother. I swipe off some cream and put it on a coffee cup,along with a bit of the milk from the frothed and pour the coffee over it. It is a cafe o'lait. You could drop some sweetner in there, too. That is my new normal routine. I intend to give up creamer and use the skim milk I already purchase. Skim milk makes lovely foam.

I also make a poor person's latte, as described in my first post.

Johanna, I was thinking about it and reading that link. I love the way you do it as you are getting so much more in one go!

Not only the full pot of coffee, but your frother makes a lot too.

Good job, lol!
