Espressotime,
Thank you! I hadn't made the connection to the space program before, but now that you mention it, it definitely fits.
I have always been a NASA fan and do enjoy slipping the surly bonds of Earth. Perhaps there was a subconscious connection that influenced me when making my purchase.
Thanks!
Post a pic of your home espresso setup... - Page 181
Just received my Super Jolly E from Prima coffee. Loving the speed and low noise so far!
I had a hell of a time dialing it in, needing almost 12 shots. I've never used a Mazzer before and was therefore unfamiliar about how sensitive the collar-adjustment was.
My miscellaneous shelf, Mazzer included a pretty nice (convex) tamper and tamping stand, yet I didn't get a lid with my mini-hopper. Lame.

Alex, let Prima know. They'll get it sorted out. I love the Super Jolly. The first time using it, it can be difficult to dial in, but I think being new to any brand of grinder would be a similar experience. They are consistent machines, though. I can now set-up an unknown mazzer and get it dialed in with just a couple shots. By the way, what a great view from your espresso station! I wish I could stare at something other than a wall whilst I make coffee!
I just ADORE my Domobar.

- Place it somewhere prominent to show the world...not tucked away in the corner
plumb the water in
plumb the draining
Randy, doesn't frying splatter on your precious? We have a kettle in similar proximity and it is always dirty from the fry panrlevine wrote:As promised, here's mine. Brand new Alex Duetto II. It's a little cramped right now, but I'm working on moving it to a cart-style setup. Not pictured: the Baratza Vario-W that I'm expecting any day now.
Also not pictured: La Pavoni pre millenium Professional that the Duetto replaced.

I'm a member long time and I've never posted here... Now that I have a renovated apartment and a space in the kitchen for me (wife is a saint, of course), here it goes...
Testing this ProM Espresso and using Elektra Semi with pressure profiling from a small board from Korea (PWM, of course, I was lazy to make something with Arduino)... These days I've used the Achille but it seems after some high pressure something is leaking. Not news... And the work in progress:
Actually one Mini Gaggia (yes, have another...), Elektra MCAL and Caravel are working. I plan to add a shelf above the whole counter top (160cm) and it could hold 4-5 machines.
BTW, I got this Faema Velox that I'm restoring and I plan to add it at the right corner, above the sink.
Márcio.
