The Reddit exodus caused by this regrettable API policy change that kills 3rd party apps, has left many of us without the subs we grew to love. r/espresso is one of these subs for me, but it wasn’t on Lemmy. I created this community in the hopes that we’ll get a Lemmy c/espresso going strong.

I’ll get the ball rolling with a Moss Original haha. I haven’t been able to pull my morning shots the past few mornings, but I’ll either post tomorrow’s morning shot (hopefully) or my afternoon espresso macchiato.

Here’s for a new beginning to an old community!

    This looks tasty! I have to admit that I am not an espresso guy. I have had a few in my years but do not stalk Starbucks. Coffee black or with 2 creams and 2 sugars for me please. Although if I did have an espresso maker I probably would use it on the weekends.

      This picture is actually the r/espresso icon, and it indeed looks super tasty!

      Personally, I don’t actually like Starbucks. It tastes too burnt to me. I do see how people like it, though, so I’m definitely not hating. It’s just not for me. If I’m not drinking eapressos, I do black.

      I started with a Mr. Coffee espresso / cappuccino machine like, a decade ago. I got it as a gift and I only used it on the weekends. Then I was gifted a bag of Larry’s Beans coffee and realized that coffee is actually delicious on its own.

        It’s been a while since I’ve had one. I will put that on my to do very soon list.

          I’d be interested to know what you think when you do try one!

          Honestly, though, it’s not for everyone, so don’t think you have to love them to be in this community <3
