I live in Sechelt on the Sunshine Coast and have been using stove top espresso pots for years. In fact, in the past I have purchased one at Starbucks. Imagine my surprise when I went into the Starbucks location in Sechelt and had to repeat 'stove top espresso pots' 3 - 4 times to the store manager. I may as well have been speaking Greek, and was shocked to learn she's never heard of them and didn't know what they were. They had a French Press and some high tech unit of some kind, but not one stove top espresso pot. Mind boggling that a well known coffee store wouldn't carry a stove top unit and even more mind boggling that the manager didn't even know what they were.
I was informed that the gift shop in the Trail Bay Mall carried them, and when I called to check, indeed they do and the owner was far more knowledgeable than your Starbucks manager.
Just thought you'd like to know. Yes, we are somewhat isolated on the Sunshine Coast but really!
