TBone2K Posted July 20 #1 Share Posted July 20 We have been making our own iced coffee lately and I've read a cruise ship hack for making your own is to get espresso from the Diamond Lounge. Does Symphony have this? I saw in some videos they have what looks like a coffee machine. The other part of this is a protein shake that comes in 300ml cartons. So I assume that would be okay.

The coffee machine in the now renamed crown lounge has a button close to espresso but not quit. Maybe it's called something else. I wouldn't call it espresso. I googled it and yes 300 ml is less than 17 oz so yes you can bring 12 of them per cabin. 300 milliliters = 10.144 us fluid ounces Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anton Posted July 20 #3 Share Posted July 20 The machines have an espresso option, in fact the new Melitta machines they are installing fleetwide have a double espresso option - but as noted above it's not like that made on a real espresso machine. More like really strong regular coffee to my tastes. I have to add three espressos to the cappuccino I make every morning to get it tasting right. It might do for an iced coffee since you are blending it with a protein shake. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can feel the daggers as I get a second cup for my wife. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nelblu Posted July 20 #7 Share Posted July 20 I get a double cappuccino. Unfortunately, on Easter Anthem sail the machine was out most of the sail. Very disappointing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cublet Posted July 21 #8 Share Posted July 21 Hello, I was on after Easter and the (new Melitta) machine had been replaced with the (old) WMF machine. Regards, Cublet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inconsiderate of the other people waiting in line.for a simple cup from the machine. How about at least making your 4 cups for yourself, and then letting others make their cup and getting in the back of the line to make your next 4 cups. m 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UGH. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
