Cappuccino Capers No.01: My Place

Welcome to the first brew of my ground bean obsession inspired entries. That sentence is a mouthful and so is the beverage I desire. Not simply brewed coffee. Steam pressed, liquid, black, bean gold. Or Espresso in it's native Italian tongue. I still like a little milk in my coffee so it's cappuccinos for me. In this series I will take you on a tour of some of Toronto's tastier grind houses.
Sometimes I think that I've become so much of a coffee snob that I say the only good cappuccinos in the city  are brewed right in my own abode. There's something I really enjoy about the process of making cappos. Grinding the beans. Filling the portafilter. Tamping the grounds. Steaming the grounds. Steaming the milk and finally, combining the two liquids to create a creamy, bitter-sweet elixir. If I don't get to do this once a day it feel's like my day is incomplete. Cappuccino Capers No. 01: MyPlace
