If you read this blog you know I’m on the quest for the perfect cup of doppio espresso. Usually a La Morzocco machine serves the best coffee until today. At the Metropolitan Market I had a double shot from a Synesso espresso machine that was so smooth it was almost sweet. It was the best cup of coffee I have ever had.
Synesso is a local Seattle company that start building espresso machines when Starbucks switched to automatic machines a few year ago. So far, to date Synesso has made 900 machines, like I said they are small. A three head machine sells for about $12K, so it’s for serious coffee shops. Already they have set up to export the machines which is the smartest thing to do. The rest of the world takes coffee much more seriously than we do, if you can imagine.
I’m going to go down to tour the plant some afternoon, and will write about that when I do. In the mean time the Metropolitan Market, another local company, is where I know you can get a great cup of coffee.

About David Losh
In 1984 I got my Real Estate license and worked in a small company called Advance Properties. The owner was extremely interested in Real Estate, building, and land development. Most of his work was concentrated North of Seattle. Since the 1970s I had worked for Real Estate agents in Seattle as a contractor, mostly preparing properties for rent, and sale.
After a few years my skill level increased considerably concerning land use, building code, and development practices. Escrow, and lending offices were housed at the Advance Properties building so it was easy to get involved in all aspects of Real Estate. It was very much a family owned, and operated business.
Over the years my Real Estate license has been at a variety of Real Estate companies, and offices. Nothing compares to those early years, or that sense of family. Real Estate has gotten to be corporate owned.
My hope with this blog is to share with you some of the things I've learned. If you have Real Estate needs, or want contractor help, I refer freely to what best suits you. If you should choose to work with me you'll find a great resource.
My Real Estate license is at Skyline Properties in Northgate. Skyline is a locally owned company that is a desk fee office. There is a wide variety of diverse agents. It helps me with some of the other projects that I have, and mentoring that I do, to be able to work with people from other cultures.
Here in Seattle we are close to Vancouver BC and are the gateway to China. Boeing has a great trade relationship with China, as does Microsoft have with all of Asia. We are a culturally diverse community, and it helps me to be invlolved.
