Johnnyguitar? Hilarious! When I found my Conti Prestina for $200 and hadn't yet bought it in my early search for a Cremina, I didn't know what it was. So I asked Doug and Barb. They said, if this is too much of a project for you, we'll take it! I drove over to Oakland, loaded that heavy box into

I see what you mean. I gotta slow down the ripples but keep my pullback moving. I am pretty happy with the progress I'm making, especially thanks to your feedback!

My DF83v grinder arrived yesterday and I was so excited. However, that excitement has certainly dissipated very quickly, but I'm hoping it can get resolved. Now that I have it in the flesh, the bellows does make it look very steam train like... I had quite liked the aesthetic of the big angled tube, but the dosing bellows definitely
