    Wow, £11 for 48 coffees seems very expensive. We have an espresso machine that uses ground coffee. I buy Lavazza at Costc0 for under £4 for 500g and this does over 50 coffees. The machine has a milk frother and I bought syrups on amazon too. It could be cheaper for you to buy a new machine if you drink lots!
  • Which lavazza is it please? I use the lavazza Rossa ground and I'm trying to find the cheapest place to buy.

    Sorry for the thread hijack!!!

    It's the Rossa one, it's either £3.59 or £3.69 I think. I used to buy Illy but the large tins are only actually 250g! Haven't found anywhere cheap to buy that.

    Wow that's fab! I love the Rossa - I'll look into Costco. Thanks very much. I bought a Gaggia Cubika Plus espresso machine before Xmas and I'm even more addicted than I was before!

    As this is a shopping, rather than Old Style thread I've moved it over to the Food Shopping & Groceries board where you may get more replies.
