    I gave this recipe one star because the author knew how to use the internet, the keyboard, and an espresso machine. The recipe (not recipie) is called Perfect Espresso Without an Espresso Machine yet the last sentence of the recipe description cleary states, "The recipe is for an espresso machine or a small 2 cup coffee machine like the Black & Decker quick brew." Anyone else see the problem here?

    This is a great recipe for those of us who love espresso based drinks but can’t justify spending the big bucks for a decent espresso maker. I doubled this recipe and mixed it with a big (“Venti”) travel cup of hot coco plus two extra spoons of coco powder mix. The end result was a cheap, quick and easy Mocha Latte type beverage. It wasn’t quite as good as “Starbucks”, but it wasn’t $6.00 a cup either. Thanks BUZY-LADY! This drink kept me buzzing for the rest of the day.
