Re: Coffee machine

French Press definitely brings out the flavor in coffee. A tip when brewing French Press... the water should be right around 195* (which is very hot.. lol). This is the ideal temperature for coffee to disperse the appropriate flavor.
A fun thing to do is pair coffees with different pastries and deserts. Some coffees taste excellent with chocolate, berries, nuts, caramel, etc. We do these pairings often at work (I'm a Barista at Starbucks) If you ever want to find a good combination, stop into a Starbucks location and ask an employee what kinds of coffee taste good with your snack of choice. They'll have some options for you.

If you ever want to get a nice personal espresso machine, I highly recommend the Barista machines. Though a little pricey, I tested one today and it brews excellent espresso shots. You can even get pre-packaged espresso pods so you don't get grounds everywhere!
