I have a Nespresso machine - pumps out coffee at 19psi.

You dont have beans , you have Nescafe capsules. This is my machine

This post is going to sound anal and nit-picky, but I'll
get on the
soap box in any case:

> Percolaters all pretty much work the same and no

percolation..

In fact there are a number of different designs for
coffee machines,
of which percolation is only one. Percolators rely on the
water being
recirculated through the coffee, whereas for the typical
filter
machine the water on passes through the coffee once, at
atmospheric
pressure.

Espresso and Moka machines force the water through the
coffee at
pressures greater than atmospheric pressure. This has an
impact on
both the flavour and caffeine content. (Espresso actually
contains
less caffeine than a conventional mug of coffee, although
few would
believe it).

Grind your own
and keep
> the Beans in the fridge !!!

The way in which the coffee beans are roasted and the way
in which
they are ground can also have a profound effect on the
coffee flavour.

There is a shed load of information about making coffee
on the web -
http://www.rappahannockcoffee.com/drinks/index2.html
is
as good a
starting point as any.
