Not a coffee break, a caffeine break. A period of abstinence from caffeine.

A friend suggested this to me a month and half ago. She said I should stop drinking caffeine for a while. I'm like, Give up coffee?? No, she said: caffeine. She said I could drink decaf. There are good...

Hi,

I just got my Weber EG-1 today.
As a first try, I headed to dial in my espresso. I started with locking in my core burrs against each other to get to the absolute zero point. Then I adjusted as the Weber support rep suggested, by changing the grind size 4-6 full numbers...

I've read a lot about them before purchasing. I read about those having...

Hello!
I recently purchased a used Brasilia Century as a winter project. I'm in a rut and hopefully can get some advise.
