Raja123 It’s a dedicated station that I currently have in my office/gaming room (still have work to do on the rest of the room). I had a carpenter put it together. There are quite a few that advertise on Instagram/Facebook/ebay. Just look up kitchen islands. The total cost is not much higher than the equivalent (and worse) Ikea units, which are not freestanding and are made of less robust materials.
HarveyMushman Raja123 Nice, thanks! I also have an office/gaming room so I might have to take a bit of inspiration from your setup!
Adrianmsmith Raja123 Compared to ikea i like the one we purchased, but, bespoke as yours is would have been better . These are better than ikea!! But no assembly required just 2 cars full of packaging to dispose if The wood panel on the Vostok looks great https://www.madewithoak.co.uk/product/grenoble-solid-oak-granite-top-kitchen-island-unit
Cuprajake Raja123 looks stunning, congratulations I really miss my lever, im so annoyed at the whole situation tbh.
HarveyMushman Cuprajake I really miss my lever, im so annoyed at the whole situation tbh. Nurri time? 😈
Raja123 Cuprajake @ “DavecUK”#p76630 Thank you both. I can’t imagine being without a lever machine on the bar. There are so many things we encounter in which there’s an unsolvable dichotomy between function and form. Levers somehow manage to deliver both in spades.
HarveyMushman Cuprajake Specht Crem? Apparently prone to tipping over due to its small size but it looks nice 😅
Cuprajake HarveyMushman thats why ive stayed away from the likes of the pavoni, i nearly spent a grand on a used cremina once upon a time,
Adrianmsmith Cuprajake i nearly spent a grand on a used cremina once upon a time, Was it you who talked your mate, @Grahamsphillips in to his project just to see how it went?!!🤭
Pompeyexile Adrianmsmith Only those with more sensitive taste buds and beautiful equipment that can get the best out of the beans and coffee knowledge…. Come to think of it, yes I guess that is ALL OF YOU! ;)
Adrianmsmith Pompeyexile Thanks for clearing that up!! Not sure i have sensitive taste buds so i guess ive wasted loads of cash on equipment the last 20 years or so 🤭 i just cant stop!! Im only allowed to buy beans this year!!
Adrianmsmith Jason1wood When you get to my age any extra height is a help with the neck whilst looking at the burrs and assessing static etc!! If i had space it would be on a plinth at the side at shoulder height 🤓 Not found a granite brick yet at the right price
Adrianmsmith Jason1wood Key is currently dedicated to my wife’s decaf . That Would be the craig kyn hg-1 prime if the key sold!! Still undecided where the Philos sits . Great grinder as we know, but is it redundant!!?
