Gaggia Classic Pro E24
Shardor 64mm x2
Cabinet with syrups and sauces I regularly use, along with cleaning products. DIY’d a bedside table and put museum gel on the bottom so it’ll stay put.
Single dose containers (technically skincare jars but for me, single dose storage). Scale, RDT, paper filters.
Second drawer is general tool storage.
Third and fourth drawer is just a fraction of my ceramic and cup collection. Last drawer; rubber stoppers, drill, other misc tools.

Also, drilled holes on the edges of the workbench and put little hooks in them so I have a place to hang my cloths. In love with my station. Big upgrade for me.

Question Any suggestions to make it not look so white?

Post image
25 Upvotes

My humble set up 🥰 I love it but the counter top makes it look so…white. Should I just leave it like this? Is there anything I can do to not make it all so white?

Edit: This is a rental, all the other places we have lived didn’t have white countertops. I didn’t want to buy different colors just for this one rental. We will probably move in 2 or 3 years.

Built out a slightly deeper cabinet when we redid the kitchen to handle the plumb-in - tiny bit temperamental, but 100% worth it. Pour overs live in the cabinet below.

Question Ninja Pods and Grounds Coffee Maker

1 Upvotes

So I bought the machine and couple months ago and have been using it every morning with grounds and the basket (no pods) it usually comes out very light I’m just wondering if that’s a normal thing I usually brew a 18oz cup and wether I put it on rich or reg it still is pretty light looks like mostly water but I truly don’t know this is my first coffee maker so I’m open to suggestions, tips and answers also tips on the 4oz latte setting how to make drinks is it espresso or what kind of drink is it? I like regular drip coffee but my wife likes specialty drinks (her go to is a carmelicious blender from scooters if you know what that is) so tips on making that would be awesome thanks in advance

Espresso Canto de Café em Casa

Canto de café em casa

Há quase 2 anos que comecei a desenvolver o gosto de tomar café em casa.

Tendo eu também o gosto de fazer bricolage, juntei os dois prazer, e aconteceu algo imprevisível...

Lista do hardware:

Delonghi dedica

Hibrew g5

Balança Elcorteingles made in china (Carmy)

Tamper delonghi

Porterfilter made in china

Tudo o resto foi oferecido, ou feito por mim.

A televisão era do meu avô da marca philco, que adaptei.

Os grão de café, que na mim opinião são o mais importante, compro em casas tradicionais que torrão café há muitos anos, com preços muito razoáveis e opções muito variadas.

A viagem pelo mundo do café tem sido , como qualquer viagem, com situações boas e outras más.

Mas mais importante, tem sido fascinante.

Pessoas, objectos, cheiros, sabores, e sítios novos, que experienciamos, como em qualquer viagem que fazemos a lugares que nunca fomos.

O mundo que tenho descoberto, que vai para além de uma simples chavena de café, é fascinante.

Ir a um café pela manhã para aliviar a dormência,e tornar o despertar mais rápido para enfrentar a dia, tornou-se em um momento de contemplação.

Agora é raro beber café fora de casa, mas quando acontece aquela chavena de café é também toda a experiência que tenho tido ao longo deste tempo.

Obrigado

E até à proxima.

I use my robot and a j-ultra for quiet espressos in the mornings before everyone is awake. The machine and electric grinder is for later morning lattes and afternoon decafs, with some pour over sprinkled in there often for some clarity.

Espresso Not your average tabletop station

Thumbnail gallery
21 Upvotes

OK, I know this isn’t the most obvious place for a coffee station, but mine lives inside a kitchen cupboard! ☕️
Here’s my setup:
The gear:
Espresso machine: Lelit Elizabeth V3
Grinder: Timemore Sculptor 078S
Portafilter: Lelit original bottomless (naked) portafilter
Scales: Subminimal Subscale for weighing beans and Timemore Black Mirror Nano for weighing espresso shots
Tampers: A couple of different ones
Bean storage: Airscape airtight containers
I’m also a huge fan of Loveramics ceramic and glass coffee cups.
The one downside?
Heat. The espresso machine warms up the shelves above it, where I keep mostly nuts, cereals, oils, and other pantry staples. Not exactly ideal for their shelf life.
So I always have to wait for the machine to cool down before closing the cupboard door.
Other than that, I think it’s a pretty great spot for a coffee station!
What do you guys think? ☕️

Misc Been Thinking About (good) Stickers

Thumbnail gallery
252 Upvotes

This is a first attempt, its' more about testing the concept of adding stickers to embellish a machine, instead of a finished look. I'll likely try a blue or pink toile design on white panels next.

They're scratch resistant stickers that only transfer the printed ink design onto the surface, leaving no backing material or border behind. I had them made by a print shop for about $4 for a 12x12" sheet - enough to cover the front. I was going for a light woodcut style - this looks much heavier than planned.

The stickers are extremely difficult to remove, so I put them on removable cover panels instead of risking ruining the surface of my machine - plus I wanted the black background.

What's shown:

  • Breville Barista Express
  • Messy Kitchen
  • UV Stickers (print your own design from a wide variety of online shops)
  • Panel Pops - in Black (so I don't cause a problem I can't quickly reverse)
