Even a stove-top "machine" (Bialetti Moka Express style) like I use?
According to the wikipedia article on the method (I know, I know...
man I hope Chuck doesn't see this post... :-)

Wikipedia? Wikifreakingpedia?!! And you call yourself a
librarian?!!!

:-)

and to my way of
thinking, the water/steam is actually hotter than 100C when it heads
up through the grounds. As opposed to an electric machine, which uses
pressurized 100C water. Which would also explain why espresso from
my electric machine tastes different than the stove top method, come
to think of it... (the electric machine sits in a cabinet, don't use
it very often.)

Just curious. It's all good to me!

Me too. We've been drinking a so-called "Cuban style roast" that's
done by an Austin company, and I'm totally addicted. (Poor choice of
words there ... sorry.)
