Make An At Home Barista Bar - Echoes of Laughter

With winter just arrived with a ton of snow, we like to stay warm and cozy at home whenever we can. Sometimes it just takes too much effort to go out into the cold to do a few errands or even to head to our favourite coffee shop to have the barista whip up one of favourite hot drinks.
But now, we don’t have to with the help of our fantastic
Philips Saeco Minuto Focus coffee & espresso machine. {You may remember I wrote about our new machine here and here}

With this amazing fully-automatic, bean-to-cup coffee machine, we can play barista right in the comfort of our own home and create tasty coffee and delicious espresso with the lift of a lever whenever we want.

The Saeco Minuto Focus has amazing features that make being an at-home barista fun and easy… including a memo function that saves your favourite settings for length, strength and temperature so you can get that cuppa just the way you like it every time!

The 100% ceramic grinder allows us to play with coffee richness by providing 5 adjustable settings from the finest grind for a full-bodied espresso to a course grind for a lighter cafe creme.

Did I mention how you can start with fresh coffee beans? That’s right…you can use fresh coffee beans right in the same machine! {Or you can use ground coffee too.}

One of the features that my family loves…the Saeco Minuto Focus comes equipped with a classic milk frother for creating delicious milk specialties.

So making tasty coffee and espresso at home with fresh ground beans and frothed milk has truly never been easier with this do-everything-in-one machine.

Of course, no at-home barista bar would be complete without some flavoured-syrups, tasty toppings and marshmallows for those hot chocolate lovers since the machine can dispense hot water too!

So, just like at the fancy coffee shops, you can create any flavor latte, cappuccino or mocha you desire. I absolutely adore treating our friends when they visit with our barista bar too. It is so wonderful to be able to have such an amazing machine that allows us to create something special for them.

Of course, no drink would be complete without a sprinkle of cinnamon, nutmeg, cocoa or sugar.

Having a at-home barista bar is really a dreamy thing.

The bests thing in life are often enjoyed at home….whether it be the company of family or friends, a great meal, or that perfect cup of coffee.

This gorgeous coffee/espresso machine gives us the luxury of pouring the perfect Italian coffee every single day.
