yes, this is what I was thinking of! I think it looks really nice, and I agree that chrome box clones are getting a little boringDon Task wrote:I'm guessing that was me... I wrapped my Bianca with automotive wrap...although I went the black route. >Heres a link< to the thread if your interested.

My original post to this thread was back in 2002 in page 170'ish. Not much has changed fundamentally other than 3 houses later, a divorce, 2 dogs, and several dozen girlfriends later here we are (in no particular order LOL...). I live in an area where quality anything is entirely nonexistent, so nobody to share my addiction to espresso with.
Might be switching to either a 2 group La Cimbali or La Espaziale or maybe a single gs3 La Marzocco (still dream
of one). To be continued.......
Keep it simple and keep it enjoyable. It is about coffee, not quantum physics!

This looks pretty similar to the last time I posted a couple of years ago but there are some improvements on the inside. The Doge has SSP 83mm espresso burrs and the KitchenAid has SSP brew burrs.
The lever has been overhauled with all new fittings, wiring, and thermocouples to turn it from a prototype to a permanent performer. I also replaced the kludged Gaggia classic boiler with a Silvia brew boiler. Now it is more reliable and ready for another 5-10 years.

Delightful setting and I do like that you carefully color-coordinated the cups with the "modern accents" on your machine!

I found your original post from 2012 - nice to see these machines performing well in the long run. I love mine - the reliability and consistency is quite remarkabledgasmd wrote:image
