However - there is this charming little coffee shop - drive through! - in Lenoir, NC - The Blue Moose Coffee Lodge - and they do all sorts of specialty coffees . . . must be a gazillion calories in some of them . . . Wish I had their menu so I could share.
I hopefully will remember this post the next time I am in that direction.
I was at the OBX and I guess since it more of summer place that they dont drink much coffee so I stop in this coffee house and they only had perculated coffee or coffee in thermos to serve you in a little styrofoam cup.

I dont mind that one but I like the peppermint latte better and I do not like the egg nog latte. It not even egg nog it just taste like nut meg on coffee.
If I could I would have a latte every morning for breakfast, made with 'real' coffee and 'real' half-and-half. What coffee maker would be best for me? I would say the most I'd like to spend would be $300. BTW I prefer coffee without added flavorings and would like the coffee to be ready in maybe 5 min. Most of the previous threads on this topic are either out of date or do not emphasize wanting to use fresh milk.
Before jumping into an expensive piece of consumer machinery that will inevitably breakdown, try getting a moka pot and a frother. Neither should be more than $30 or so. My BIL, who teaches in Rome, uses this combo daily to make something that's close to but not quite a cappuccino.

I think this is a good suggestion. I imagine the thrill of an at home espresso maker fades quickly. I am tempted though!
The need for humans to make art everywhere is amazing
