I also got a brew tool tamper for Christmas from the wife.

beautifull tool.

Any coffee related christmas goodies?

 

I received stainless steel Brew Tool tamper from my girlfriend

 

Nice.

 

Got 2 bags of beans from Aroma, a set of cappuccino cups and saucers (matt black with white on the inside!) and a new timer that works with AA batteries.

I got a tamping mat & group head brush and 6 Glass Cappuccino cups. Awesome!

 

So this may be a silly question but do you guys take that shower mesh part off before back flushing?

There’s a clear, often mustachioed, overlap between those who love great coffee and ride fixed-gear bikes to work every morning.

 

Bike powered coffee grinder.

 

This is so cool.

I got an earopress for the office... Makes an espresso that gives you a kick in the nads so hard that it bumps your andrenals straight into your brain and makes it bleed adrenalin!

+1 for aeropress. That thing makes unreal coffee. And I don't have to wait for it to heat up like my Sylvia.

Aerpress gives a nice clean coffee. ...Thumbs up for it

I bought myself two pitchers today at makro and westpack. Finally getting consistent shots from the pavoni and enjoying the coffee

Ha ha the pitchers don't help with the shots lol.

 

They do however help with the milk I add for cappuccinos ;-)

Must admit One of the highlights of my coffee making is the milk pour , working on that latte art. Good pitcher plays a big part in it.

A few attempts

[Weight Weenie]

Wide cups definitely help!

Could make a nice little wall print

Anybody know much about these machines? Looking for something that will do a good cappuccino as well as espressos.

They good machines but require frequent servicing.
