Now raise your hands who is a mocha<\/strong> lover!<\/p>\n The world of incurable coffee drinkers is divided on this ancient dilemma. Today we try to find an agreement to one of the greatest dogmas in the history of humanity: is the espresso prepared at the bar or the coffee prepared at home better?<\/strong><\/p>\n Espresso, a good and fast coffee!<\/strong><\/p>\n The espresso is the coffee that is prepared in bars and cafeterias<\/strong> using the professional espresso machine and comes with the classic cream on the surface.
