How to Brew Perfect Iced Coffee

Enjoy Your Morning Coffee with Simple Brewing

My personal favorite way to enjoy my morning coffee is to brew it using an espresso machine and pour it over ice. This combination provides a refreshing start to the day.

Find an Affordable Espresso Machine at the Thrift Store

One of the most reasonable places to look for an espresso machine is your local thrift store. When searching for a used machine, make sure it turns on and includes the handle and portafilter (the metal insert with holes that holds the grounds).

If the machine is missing the portafilter or basket, you can often find replacements online, or you might find another machine nearby with the necessary parts.

My Functional Find

At my local thrift store, I found a 1984 Salton Ex-8 for around $15. It works perfectly and provides me with high-quality coffee every chance I get.

Save Money with Used Equipment

Of course, you can spend money on a newer and fancier model, but the quality difference in the result is rarely worth the extra cost, in my opinion.

In summary, finding a used espresso machine can be both economical and satisfying. Start your day with a delicious homemade iced coffee with our delicious brews!

Enjoy the simple luxury of homemade iced coffee without breaking the bank.
