Waiting for delivery of a carimali 2 group semi automatic, with Mazzer grinder.

 

All accessories etc as well.

 

Its a reconditioned unit, bought through the importer.

 

Here is a pic during the reconditioning.

 

Now you just need a Barista... :)

The Scott Rao one looks like the one to get.

 

He has a few good youtube videos out too - The one to have really is the Illy book - it's huge and covers just about everything.

 

Scott also contributes a fair amount on home-barista.com, and his work is good, but relatively lightweight compared to the first 2 - Schomer used to be regarded as the god of coffee in the US, still highly regarded these days, but probably less of an icon than he was 10 years ago as the coffee scene has exploded.

That Illy book is $95 as an ebook!!!!! That's a lot of beans. Must admit I'm tempted

 

Buy it in hardcopy - it's a coffee table book for sure...

 

I lent mine to my brother a couple of years ago.... hasn't come back yet... :)

 

Fortunately his kids are less likely to destroy it than mine....
