hmm interesting! I hung out mostly at Faema, La Marzocco, Ghirardelli, Fellow, Flair, Artpresso Design, and Synesso at the expo, my apologies that I did not recognize you.

No need to apologize, not knowing what we looked like makes it hard.

This is what the HB lapelle pins were supposed to be for!

Maybe next year we can make sashes, didn't see many lapels at the show.

Thanks for the pics! Wish I was there (live in CT) but visiting family in FL this week. Speaking of OE, I brought my handy Fixie and just finished grinding two 45g batches for French Press (from home roasted beans I also traveled with).

Looking forward to meeting some of you sooner or later.

Enjoy the show!

Today I met someone who's been reading HB for 8 years but never joined. Wait he so much appreciated the site because it's taught him so much. Really cool nice young man, he was at the OE booth to get Doug's signature. He's been using a Pharos for 8 years

Nice to hear,

The one person that actually recognized me was a Facebook admin (Scott Steele) for the Facebook group Espresso Machine Restoration. I post abbreviated topics of my projects every so often there and he was appreciative of my contributions. Really nice guy
