A expresso maker for my boyfriend on our 3 years anniversary

Hello,

Are there any gift ideas for my boyfriend for our 3 years anniversary? I am thinking on getting my boyfriend an expresso maker for our 3 years anniversary, I mean he mentioned he would like to get one. However not sure which brand is good. Don't want to get one that doesn't work well. He isn't into sports. He likes music though. I have given him a ring, watch, personalized clock, turn table, iHome, Rock Band 2, and scarf on previous gifts.

Hopes anyone can help me. Thanks.

 

You'll be in for a bit of sticker shock if you start looking into a good espresso machine. The most important thing to look for in one is to make sure it has a pump. Espresso is made by pumping hot water, under pressure, through densely packed coffee. Machines without a pump wont have enough pressure to fully extract flavors from the coffee leaving you with, basically, drip coffee.

 

You called espresso, expresso and now you switched it around LOL

Anyways, no espresso, Street Fighter IV is the gift for all man, shows the manliness through fighting LOL

No such things as Expresso.
Lieutenant Aldo Raine might suggest it's Italian for "Express".

 

Then why did someone mention expresso and in this thread, the title is expresso =="

 

I don't know.

I'm just waiting for Ralph to come and prove me wrong. -bigsmiles

 

Wow .. looking at the list of stuffs you got him in the past and for only 3 years .. that does seem like a whole lot .. usually the gal is on the receiving end; not so much for the guy.

I don't know how serious ya'll are but gift during/whilst in relationship should be personal and from the heart; not based on value. You can certainly make something up ...

As for an espresso machine .. ppl usually get it when they live together .. home appliance ..

 

I dun really like espresso but if I were to get one I'd get a Nespresso or a Krups one.... both of brands have variety of prices.... starting from ard €150

 

^ Krups sucks .. don't get it .. I dunno about Nepresso though..

 

I am looking at Mr. Coffee or DeLonghi for espresso machines

 

Dunno which Krups uve got/tried la... my sis says its good... *shrugs*

 

Different tastes, just like how I like girls that a mature and a tad bit older than me, and phil likes girls that are young and naive

 

hahaha

 

i only know Krups

Anyone know if Mr. Coffee is good?

 

i think the one in the office at the client site i'm working at is Krupps?
it's a lil big... but makes decent coffee (and hot chocolate!!) hehehe

price tag... well last i heard it was about 3k or so...

 

by giving this gift u will mean he needs to wake up ? xD

 

cuz asians can't pronounce the words correctly, creating words they "thought" to be correct which is not...plus the UK accents are killing the english (making ppl here unable to understand)

btw did ppl noticed in Healing Hands, the nurses/doctors say "pulse" as "p-au-se" LOL
