...time for a shrine update; starting with this gorgeous piece of custom woodcrafting by the master, Mr. Dave Stephens. He replicated the original E61 style handle in Macassar Ebony for me :-) (Click for larger image)

Very, very nice Jon. I love the older machines and I really love that one. Enjoy! OH, PS, what ever happened with the knives?

In real life, my name is Wayne P. Feed the newbs, starve the trolls and above all enjoy what you drink!

No need to spend mega $ and build an new extension to have great espresso. With a bit of shopping around and patience, I built this setup for a little over $1000. The total kitchen space occupied by the whole setup is about the size of a 14 inch cube (14x14x14) and I'm ready to pull shots in only 10 minutes from cold. With the manual pre-infusion, pressure and temperature profiling, taste is only limited by your barista skills. Small is beautiful ! (Click for larger image)
