Oscar and Mazzer Mini.

Using the naked portafilter right now. I drink, Americanos, and heat the water with the steam wand. This works quite well. The machine has ridiculous steam...

It's not the acquisition cost, it's the disposal fee when you're done where it really gets expensive.

...That's what the pre-nuptial insurance is all about when purchasing this brand of coffeemaker. If its offered, get it!

Ive never had vacuum brewed coffee before. At the last coffee trade show I was at in DC they had a few demos (large scale 5 or 7 pots at a time) but the crowd was too thick.

hand grinder huh? talk about old school... but I guess it becomes somewhat of a ritual... like your cigar pre-light routine.

That's pretty much the setup I would love to have. Hard to improve on that pair.

OK Introducing me to vacuum brewing and the option of old school hand grinding.
BUT...Can a hand grinder be set for consistent, reproducible grinds?
It's just a nut changing the opening size of the grind...Hard to have a setting switch for various grinds.


hmmmmmm
