Okay. A teensy bit of a joke post, but this baby does make good espresso.

I can vouch for it. Ray pulled shots with this breadboarded contraption in Portland. Or is that your office setup, Ray? (Don't tell me John let you take it home.)

Heehee. The first prototype (from Portland) lived in my home office. This one is currently in my office office. We're working on a production-worthy version of this prototype right now.

I recently got a Linea Mini and have been fixing up an older, beat up Robur. I took it to a local autobody shop who did an awesome job!

And yes, I used to be a nespresso drinker...

Well you made a massive leap forward, great setup!

+1 outstanding setup, now the mods begin....

Thank you both! One of the things I have learned from photography is that if you have a goal and you can afford to save up and wait then it's often cheaper to buy once, at least if you have a habit of hanging on to old gear. I definitely plan on passing the LMLM on to some family in many years!

This forum has been an amazing resource over the past couple years I've been lurking. The mods to the robur are definitely in progress.

Fellow photographer + espresso gear heads unite! We couldn't have picked more expensive careers/hobbies!

Both of those hobbies + ham radio! Once in a while the old VISA has a heart attack!

If you single dose, I'd whole heartily recommend a container based solution.

Very nice setup Nick! But seems like a strange place to put the bean cellars - right in the window where they are exposed to UV light. Why go through all the hassle of using bean cellars only to do that?

PS Nevermind, I see now that this has already been discussed. Sorry.
