V12man Posted April 14, 2016 Posted April 14, 2016 Thanks. Yes I was thinking 5k for the Oscar so your price seems right to me. She is a good friend I'm very fond of so I will let it go for 5. My partner says she has seen the Linea online for 58k. It's a lot of money for coffee is it not. I will try contact Koldserve and see what they say.Call Foodserv too - and please pick a great grinder first - otherwise it will be a waste and you will not get the quality you want to get in the cup.
cadenceblur Posted April 14, 2016 Posted April 14, 2016 I hear you. Also had an Oscar and it is best to avoid the "multiple stepped" upgrade approach and just get one that will blow your mind for time to come. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
HappyMartin Posted April 14, 2016 Posted April 14, 2016 Call Foodserv too - and please pick a great grinder first - otherwise it will be a waste and you will not get the quality you want to get in the cup.I have a Simonelli MDX grinder. Had it as long as I have had the Oscar. It's been very reliable and gets very good reviews. I paid 12k for it three years ago. In your opinion will it be suitable? Thanks for the advice.
the nerd Posted April 14, 2016 Posted April 14, 2016 What a difficult choice it would be for me: http://www.home-barista.com/forums/userpix/21_dup1_img_2247.png

That is the GS3, no its a home/commercial machine. Ask V12 about it, he has one at home from what I remember... Great machines! I love the look of the GS3...
cadenceblur Posted April 14, 2016 Posted April 14, 2016 Yip, an early generation one. Doesn't need to be plumbed in. But apparently it's advisable to plum the MP versions. It's actually a robust domestic machine. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
HappyMartin Posted April 14, 2016 Posted April 14, 2016 And it's even more expensive. Nope. Linea mini it is. More than enough money. Actually way too much.
the nerd Posted April 14, 2016 Posted April 14, 2016 The Linea is so pretty ha ha I like it to... Or a Slayer, but lets not go down that road... HappyMartin 1
cadenceblur Posted April 14, 2016 Posted April 14, 2016 Only read good things about it. I guess you can't go wrong with a La marzocco Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
the nerd Posted April 14, 2016 Posted April 14, 2016 Ok I had to: http://slayerespresso.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/matte-black-SM.jpg cadenceblur and V12man 2
cadenceblur Posted April 14, 2016 Posted April 14, 2016 Slayer... Mmmm Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
cadenceblur Posted April 14, 2016 Posted April 14, 2016 That's just wrong. There's a guy sprudge that does customizations. You should see some of the Slayers he's done. Was thinking of customizing my machine but too pricey Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
cadenceblur Posted April 14, 2016 Posted April 14, 2016 Like twice the price of the mini... no. Wayyyy more
HappyMartin Posted April 14, 2016 Posted April 14, 2016 Slayer very pretty. Anything is pretty after the Oscar. I have a dog bowl that is better looking than the Oscar. the nerd 1
