Well, things are always moving and changing. For the moment, the 2 sjs are out, the new A.C. automatic is in, my machine remains the same and now there is neon on the wall, replacing a shelf that used to hold Disney collector cups. I still have those cups and a lot more and one day I will make a holder for them but until then, this is what I wake to every morning.

Before shooting espresso pics, here's my new (temporary) setup. Tonight I have actually completed the kitchen coffee bar, but the pics have to wait until tomorow...
Moved into a house with my (then soon to be) wife in May 2007 And of course the shrine evolved as well...this was where I got the stainless kitchen prep table

The new shrine!! (And new camera!) OK - as many know I finally bought a house, so here's the breakfast area/coffee bar
During 2008 I mostly kept that setup, but I got rid of the Mazzer Mini and purchased a Macap M7K. Early in 2009, I replaced the Super Jolly with the Mahlkoenig K30 In mid 2009 there was an opportunity for me to buy a very slightly used Mazzer Robur, which replaced the Macap M7K
And then, in the summer of 2009, I replaced the Wega with a LaMarzocco GS/3 (I changed jobs in January 2009, and had some new budget...)
And now I also have a Vario-W and Ceado E7 as evaluation grinders (both are terrific). These swap in and out on the bar depending on what testing I'm doing....
