I have a small kitchen, and a flair, so mine lives in a small cupboard with all its attendant accoutrements. It’s very quick to get out and put away though, there’s almost no extra steps to keeping it like that
I love it. I’ve not used a Robot, but I did a lot of nerding out about the choices before I bought this one, and it really works well. Having the pressure gauge and the long lever allows a good bit of accuracy, and if you get a second basket you can make shots back-to-back pretty fast if you keep the kettle simmering. It’s quite a big bit of kit, but I have a cupboard that it goes in nicely, and looks fantastic through the glass so it doesn’t eat my whole worktop.
It’s definitely more work than a normal machine, but if you want something that does pre-infusion and all that, it’d cost way more than I could afford, so this is a good compromise between price and capability
I think that anything from public image repositories, or from somewhere like Pixelfed/Flickr that is put up with a CC license would be OK.
I’ve never got a good photo like that, as I use a Flair espresso machine - being manual it’s a bit too involved to be snapping photos mid-pour, I don’t have the dexterity or extra arm necessary!
Yeah, that’s not worked for me either, it just micromanages my current hyper-fixation in great detail and depth. It’s a two-wolves situation, with impulsivity and in-depth nerdery

You love to see it
In fairness, it’s a fucking good t-shirt.
You can’t just jump on us, yell “giddy-up!” And call yourself an ADHD jockey, that’s not cool

It may be cliched, but how about an image of the underneath of a portafilter as a shot’s pulled?
Mask was the bomb
I know how he feels
My next vehicle will be an early 90s Mercedes.
Ed Milligan’s looks like he’d struggle to be the source of his own problems
Close encounters of the herd kind, surely

So what else do you listen to instead? Asking for a friend…

Fuck yeah
Council houses are the answer to so many problems
The results of the last few bulbs are mind-blowing, this is such a weird effect
Looks like there should be a Brazzers logo somewhere on there
But the Argentinians can pull that crap? Almost as if FIFA is somehow corrupt
