How many coffees a day mate?

Cheap'ish auto that works pretty good is a Saeco Royal Professional.

Has a little attachment with a hose that you can run in a jug of milk (sitting in one of those small 12V fridges) so it froths automatically for you into your cup... and its designed for about 50-100 coffees a day.

My dad has one at his bakery and it makes that many a day, hasn't missed a beat. I have one as my spare machine and we have the same machine at my work, no dramas.. as long as you keep them clean and descaled, there shouldn't be a problem with that sort of usage.

Obviously beans are entirely down to personal taste/preference.
Personally, I use Essenza beans. It is Premium Arabica Coffee roasted daily in Perth.
The most important thing being that they are roasted daily. So I buy 250g of beans roasted that morning about once a week.

Roasted locally in Mt Lawley.
Call 0412 207 660 for orders.

That one looks like a good solution

OK Joe, I have ordered the beans, lets see if they are better than the unbeatable (IMO) purecrema beans.

All of your recommendations, except the velvet espresso, I couldn't see that on the site, but i was only looking under normal blends, not fancy shmancy flavored crap.

Sweet!

Nah they don't have any of that flavoured bullshit at Five Senses.. you can only buy Velvet blend at Velvet Espresso.

I've not tried Elixir blend either, but again you can only buy that at Elixir Espresso... that would be right up there with the best also.

I was thinking it seemed like something from Velvet Espresso but just assumed that five senses roasted velvets beans.

I read the post wrong

I got the following from five
