    Cafetiere coffee and espresso based coffee are fundamentally quite different things.

    At home you could get a fancy machine or you could just buy a little stove-top espresso pot, I think they're very sweet.

    At work, you could get a small pod-based machine (Nespresso or whatever brand you like) I imagine. I doubt it's going to convince the true coffee snobs but as a compromise in cost and convenience I think it could be worth a shot(!)

      The stove pots are excellent - but I'm not sure about the aluminium ones...

        When abroad, I had learn that I can't ordered just a coffee, I have to ordered an expresso, otherwise I get a huge cup of terrible coffee.

                Nothing wrong with a big mug of coffee.

                  Moka pots have always been aluminium. It's rare to find one that isn't, which is a pain as I have an Induction hob at home

                      Bunch of snobs.

                      Just get a big tub of Nescafé and go wild.
