Excellent find, HB. Imagine a world where espresso boiler capacity is expressed in caliber units.

Dan,

Glad you posted that, I was going to last week and spaced on it.

It can be found over on Boingboing.net and they have a link to an original article detailing his workshop and business making the machines.

Sniffing roasted coffee aromas that have been fractionated by a gas chromatograph is an enlightening experience: one may recognize the aromas of roses, Darjeeling tea, chocolate, vanilla and violets, as well as truffles, soup, cheese, sweat and even what is called cat scent, which, if diluted, smells like sauvignon blanc wine but in a concentrated sample is disgusting.

Wow, it's even a "mis en bouteille"? Must have been really expensive.

Yes!

I knew you'd trip over that listing, Timo!

One wonders if the canapes served at that house would've suited, say, Renfield? (teasing, running like mad. . .) All that's missing would be authentic rat-tail demitasse (mouse-tail?) spoons!
