13067_ 072

We all need more energy in the day, and this summer Italian coffee giants illy are making that easier than ever with the new Francis Francis Y5 iperEspresso Machine, a one-touch operation with two programmable volume settings that makes preparing espresso at home quick, delicious, and easy. Efficient in speed, the machine also features an aluminum and glass body, combining form and function in a sleek design.

Joining the expertise of the new release, illy master barista Giorgio Milos arrives with a new blog that covers everything coffee. The web portal hosts a multitude of articles like “Coffee: Even Better with all Five Senses” that are ripe with invaluable tips such as “The shade of brown in your cup should directly correlate to preparation method, setting up the taste experience to follow,” and “I urge (make that, plead with)-you to sip, never guzzle coffee or any other fine beverage.”

As every coffee enthusiast knows, it’s never just coffee, and Milos’ blog expertly articulates his (and our) passion. Check it out here, and purchase the Francis Francis Y5, available in both Black ($279) and Satin ($299) finishes, here.
