FYI, we originally bought the house because we loved the fact that it incorporated a circa 1790 barn (thus the exposed beams, columns and barn-board ceiling) into a home with a modern de...

Post a pic of your home espresso setup...

We built a new kitchen and my wife thought it would be a good idea to have a separate area for my espresso gear, so I took her at her word! {image}

Custom Hybrid Terranova Grinder
