Pretty much done.

Old baristas never die. They just become over extracted.

Thank you. Yours is very impressive! It appears that we both like Craig Lyn's bean vaults, although I do have a Weber Bean Cellar on back order for the counter.

Thanks. I love my coffee and espresso toys and I do love the Craig Lyn's bean vaults. They work great for single dosing and look good on the counter. :D

I'd be interested in this too, as I'm looking for a similar solution! Ty in advance!

Having had the GS3 for a few years now, I wanted to give her a fresh look.

I thought I'd try wrapping it as it was fully reversible if I (or the wife!) didn't like the look.

I used 3M's 2080 series wrap, which is pretty decent stuff and relatively easy to apply. It's also very heat tolerant as they use it around the engine bays of V12 Lamborghini's!

I made the side panels a few years ago and the inserts are removable - they just slide out. So it was easy to replace the existing white insert with a carbon fibre wrap.

I found some small, red La Marzocco logos that normally go on the drip tray of the Linea Mini. Painted it matte black to match and fitted it to the front of the drip tray to finish it off.

I'm pretty chuffed with her new stealth look.

That's exactly what my kids said when they saw it too!

You should be chuffed, old man!

Did you apply contact paper to the cup tray and drip tray, too? If so, that must have been a painstaking job with a razor blade or an Exacto knife.
