I've had my 59 year old Faema Lambro for 8 years. Absolutely no interest in another machine

What else should I try for straight espresso?
I drink 99% straight espresso and I believe Caffe Lusso Lionshare is the best I've used. I've ordered it more continuous times than any other coffee. Their service and shipping is great

Grinder for La Marzocco Linea Mini, max budget $1500
I have owned a K30 and now own a Monolith Conical. The K30 was a great grinder but the Monolith is so much better for single dosing. I feel that after several months it's "broken in" and I no longer use RDT nor WDT. I get the same, superb results every time

KafaTek Monolith 68mm conical single-doser

Mahlkonig K30 vs. Monolith Conical?
Eric, I've owned both. The MC replaced a K30 I used for 5-6 years. The MC will add about a minute to your prep time. You lose about 5 g. of coffee a session with the K30. If you want to alternate coffees, the MC is superior. If you get a bag of coffee

Going rate of used La Marzocco GS3 MP and/or Mahlkonig K30 Air?
FYI - I sold a 6 year old K30 Vario on eBay last week for $875. It was in great condition. I had it as low as $600 for a time on CG and got lots of "send me pics" and "if it's still there when I'm readies", but no "buyers"

Help! I'm downgrading! La Marzocco GS3 to....
Thanks for the most interesting history lesson David. Jerry did take to drinking in the more traditional bluesman way - at least when he was staying in the Clarksdale, MS area. I run into Leland and Maryanne often when I'm in Clarksdale
