Seattle Coffee Gear is the answer to a very specific question: How can I make an excellent cup of coffee at home? Unfortunately, we're probably all too familiar with the bitter and diluted 'coffee water' -- you know, the kind of drip coffee you'd find in a roadside diner. If that's all coffee could be, we wouldn't be here! In fact, the quest to find out how to make delicious home espresso led our founder, Victor, on a journey through trial and error, wasting money on machines that didn't fit his needs and getting frustrated by the lack of practical information available. When he eventually found the perfect machine, he became convinced there had to be a better way to get from 'coffee water' to espresso. So he took his experience and turned it into a business: The kind of company that provides skilled, knowledgeable advice on everything from the best machine to meet your needs to how you can make that delicious espresso on your own. Armed with the singular mission to provide unbiased and customer-centric service by a crew who love what they do, Seattle Coffee Gear has grown from Victor's great idea into a unique and innovative leader in home espresso machines.
