I really wanted mint inker Tina, but couldn't get them before orphan espresso stopped carrying them.

I bit the bullet and paid for shipping from the UK retailer that was mentioned in a recent thread.
I had been lusting for these for quite a while before I broke down and finally ordered them. Unfortunately it doesnt look like they have the tina line

For storage, there are these 'cases' for fine china tea cups - the ones that I have were purchased locally decades ago, but are similar to the first item shown here: http://www.organizeit.com/china-storage.asp No experience with that vendor, just that page shows the typical options. Amazon, AliExpress, etc., probably have better pricing.

My wife found this piece of furniture at a thrift store to serve as an overflow storage for my espresso machines, espresso and coffee accessories, and extra cups. They're in the plastic bins.

I only use one cup at a time, but have a lifetime supply of Illy back ups. As for storage, right now their home is atop a 1959 Altec Lansing 604c...

As you might guess, there is no Mrs. Almico and I don't get many visitors

But there is really good music to go with really good espresso.

Looks like an Altec 604E - I love it!

I have some room at my house...

I just ordered my first demitasse and cappuccino cup from Intelligentsia since they have 40% off their 20th anniversary cups right now with a coupon. I use these two cheapo latte cups from Amazon currently and they are a bit large.
