And that is my concern, how?? If I frequent their establishment, I expect steaming hot coffee at the click of my fingers... just because i cant actually click my fingers doesn't mean they can take all foofing day over it..

It's your concern because you frequent places that employee monkeys such as Starbucks/Costa/Whorehousecarphone

Even the staff in McDonalds can produce hot coffee without any problems

No but it was interesting and amusing all the same I love latté too, I make them all the time at home, two shots expresso to about half a pint of steamed milk and a nice microfroth on top, yum The machine I have lives on the worktop with all the bits and bobs sitting on the hot plate on top, it takes about 2 mins for the boiler to come to temp and about five for everything else to heat up nicely.

I bought some Whittards flavoured Arabica last week, Irish Cream and Amaretto (not together), hardly the choice of a connoisseur but yummy all the same
