☕ - The hot beverage that powers the world!

Coffee gadgets - It's always great to learn about new gadgets. Please share your favorite hardware or full setups. It might inspire newcomers to experiment!

Local businesses - Please promote your local businesses. If you are not the owner of the business you are promoting, kindly ask the owner if it's okay. It would be great if the business has a physical store to include an exterior or interior shot.

Hi, I have been making french press coffee for the last 2 years. Recently got my hands on Aero press. Now planning to get Gaggia Classic Pro Evo (metal series).

As of now I have a hand grinder (burr) and have option to procure pre grounded coffee from local roaster.

Just wanted to know your thoughts. Which was your first espresso machine? How was your experience? What's few things I should look out for as a beginner? What's your favourite recipe?

Bookmarked. I will try to use the machine as is , while I save up some money and muster up courage and time to get this done.

Yeah. I would take my time too. It will take time to get good with the machine anyway.

I would also take my time if I modified one, I wouldn't want to hurt myself or ruin the machine.
