I have been keeping a secret from all of you for a month. I BOUGHT A COFFEE MACHINE MONTH AGO!! Haha. Actually I didn’t mean to keep it as a secret. Just kind of lazy to upload a picture of my coffee machine onto my blog. I feel that I am not doing my coffee machine justice if I merely blog and not upload a picture of my cool new gadget. Before you start judging me and saying that I am a spendthrift, allow me to justify my spending. I understand that coffee here is cheap. The coffee machine is cheap too!! J I bought it at 64 dollars!! The cheapest one I saw in singapore was 600 plus!! I think it’s because of the coffee culture here that provides the demand for coffee machine and thus, justifies the production of coffee makers and increases domestic supply of coffee machine. I suppose the price of coffee machine has to be competitive to rival cheap gourmet coffee around aussie. Whatever it is, I am just happy that I got it.

Now, I can enjoy coffee whenever I want. I can be my own barista and customize my own drink. Anyway the machine is a small version of the one used in startbucks. It is cool, cute and really useful. Most importantly, I feel pro while making coffee. I never expect myself to make nice coffee at home, given my history of coffee making revolves around 3 in 1 coffee. My coffee is definitely not as nice as the coffee from starbucks etc. However, the standard of my coffee is satisfying and beyond my imagination. I feel quite shy to boast that I actually make better café latte than coffee club express in NUS. I am also shocked by how good I am. I have to admit that the first coffee I made was a disaster. But I always believe in sheer determination. I read lots of stuff online so I picked up quite a bit of coffee making knowledge.

I hope the one day, I can make coffee that are so nice that my ah-mah will prefer my café latte to her all time favourite kopi-O.
