I love it. I'm a big fan of super automatic machines. Our first was a Jura Capresso and this is now our second Gaggia. Actually, it's our third Gaggia. I liked our previous one so much I bought another one to use at work. And I'm thinking about repeating that with this new one.

If you haven't already done so, spend some time watching machine videos on Whole Latte Love. They will help you make a solid decision.

EDIT: Something to consider...
These machines, generally speaking, don't like dark roasted, oily beans. Some will tolerate them but only if you set the grinder to its coarsest setting but then it'll make terrible espresso. I'd suggest you first determine what beverage you'll make most frequently using your preferred roast and brand of beans and then selecting the machine that best suits those scenarios.

I'm about to start running PoE cable through the soffits and maybe some Cat 6 in the walls. This should make things a bit easier. (He claimed naively.

)

MassWholeBimmer · 12-28-2023, 02:02 PM

Don't know why I waited so long. One camera strap with "quick disconnects" for all my cameras, lens, etc...

JJ 911SC

Just arrived. Fairly hefty and it came with a full-size screwdriver to attach the one screw to the handle. IKEA, please take note.

Guess what I'm making for breakfast tomorrow...

A new home for Dr. Oetker?

A coil pack for the winter beater

Vinnrox250 · 01-01-2024, 10:57 AM

More shoes. I got a little carried away.

Buug959 · 01-01-2024, 04:03 PM

Ordered some new anchors, both front and rear. Yellow Stuff pads and USR slotted rotors. Oh and they also include caliber lube.

Hahahaha. Woah. She really had an addiction. No, I don’t have the kind of room she does. lol. But I do probably have 40 pair or so.

Don’t get me started on cologne or sunglasses.

600 Lumens LED REDLITHIUM USB Low-Profile Hard Hat Headlamp. My nephew had one up at the cabin this weekend. Incredibly comfortable on my bald head, and so bright even *I* could see.

///MPhatic · 01-02-2024, 01:27 PM

Got this on sale for $199 (shows over $300 now).

wrickem · 01-04-2024, 06:02 PM

Ego power shovel for where the snowblower and plow can’t get to easily.

Now we just need some snow, we’re having a long snowless streak in NJ and I love the stuff and want some.

MassWholeBimmer · 01-04-2024, 06:07 PM

Now that my camera gear is getting a bit heavier, time for a more robust monopod...

I have a similar Ryobi snow brush that I bought over a year ago. Last year we had just one storm that dumped a grand total of 2" of slush. It didn't work so well in that mess. We might be in for some snow later this week or next weekend, but if we don't get any, I won't be disappointed.

One of the dealership had a sale on Windshield Washer Fluid, $3.50 US a Gallon.
