How do you like that Cimbali grinder? The lines are much nicer than those of the Max and Jr grinders.

The Magnum does great results. Not to be compared with my former Rocky.

Yes, but you review things - I am just a humble home barista...

As am I. The test equipment just visits, everything else I had to spend my kids college fund on.

It would be nice if they built a Max in that case (hint hint Cimbali). Or even the Jr hybrid, I think that design would be much easier for many home baristas (and significant others) to live with in the kitchen. The brushed stainless box of the Max and Jr are very industrial looking, but you can't beat the grind.

For my first anniversary with Miss Silvia, I installed an Auber PID and purchased a new style Rancilio portafilter. Although I am happy with my current setup, visiting this forum often won't help prevent catching upgradeitis. :wink:

I have had this setup for several days now and still getting the hang of it, but I am happy with the shots I am cranking out already, though I know they will get better. I love the way this looks on the counter, though my girlfriend was quite surprised to see how much room it takes up. I am winning her over though with morning Macchiatos!Image

VERY happy with Anita. Note the yogurt cup and skewer for WDT - very effective but decidedly messy. We'll see if I outgrow the Rocky and the process in the future...
