My High-Tech Equipment

For every task there is necessary equipment! So here is an overview of the tools I will be using.


#1 The Metal Barista Cup
It may not be a necessity, but it is very handy for espresso style drinks. I use it to foam milk in because the curved sides prevent flying foam from getting on you. Ikea $5.99

#2 The Milk Frother
This simple piece of technology creates milk foam/froth and mixes the drink. I couldn't live without it.
Ikea $2.99

#3 An Espresso Maker
It doesn't have to be $200 to make espresso. I picked mine up on clearance for $10 and it tastes the same as Starbucks! GSI $35

#4 PerfecTea maker
Now you don't need my fancy loose leaf tea maker, just something that can brew tea. Teavana $19.95

#A Mug
We, of course, need a mug to drink our creations. I like ceramic mugs without any graphics, they can take a beating and the microwave surprisingly well!

  1. I just found your site while googling starbucks + paleo... I will continue to follow your posts! Great equipment, I have got to get that espresso maker. Perfect for camping! Also I've never heard of a milk frother, only a steamer.... on ebay looking for one now...
