Lets kick off with some beautiful measuring equipment and it's even coffee related for some projects I'm doing. Micrometer (1 micron), depth gauge (1 micron) and calipers (10 micron). A pleasure to use, especially the callipers as my other set are Mitutoyo, but 60 years old (my dads) and in thou.

Not nearly as desirable as Dave's Mitutoyo triptych, but I my AliExpress order arrived, Timemore scales and tamping stand. https://p8.f1.n0.cdn.getcloudapp.com/items/6quvgKo1/d1df3fad-2e19-4680-8ce4-1b3b2beda9c9.jpg https://p8.f1.n0.cdn.getcloudapp.com/items/2NuPLY8D/e86b8e20-5899-4d8c-9d5f-c6d9f5ac229c.jpg https://p8.f1.n0.cdn.getcloudapp.com/items/jkuEwdpG/3de85076-95b0-4234-8023-c13f2363b3dd.jpg Tamping stand reminds me of a monolith from 2001: A Space Odyssey. https://p8.f1.n0.cdn.getcloudapp.com/items/7KuA5eZw/ab5f8c5e-ae80-4b21-9ca1-6eaf383dc281.jpg

Up and running again now 😄 .

Getting this up three flights of stairs was fun. 😫 https://p8.f1.n0.cdn.getcloudapp.com/items/P8u84KYQ/8b682a6b-1150-4422-868a-c702db2c2a05.jpg

@"Elcarajillo"#p228 Looks good Frank, especially like the PID, much better than the old one…you going to keep the longer legs :😉 And @"Gagaryn"#p405 at least it isn't a Vesuvius Evo?

@"Gagaryn"#p405 All the legs are intact for a change.

What did postman bring today ?

Penance

Cuprajake Yea, very quick!

CoyoteOldMan

Penance Waiting for one of those myself!

Penance

CoyoteOldMan I reckon you’ll love it.
Fits the Bianca basket really well and a nice fit in the hand.

MediumRoastSteam

Bravo tampers are so well made! I have one… it’s great!

audiomacgyver

Cuprajake Awesome! How do you like them??

I was looking at possibly getting a new grinder now that I’ve had my fun with the Arco 2-1 (plus a new born and the noise of an Arco doesn’t go together) and I was going to go back to the old faithful Niche Zero but it seemed too safe and boring and so I opted for this…..DF64P. Arrived this morning from Bella Barista. Haven’t used it yet and I’ve never touched or even seen a DF64 but this 64P is built very well. Plenty of accessories in the box. I’m looking forward to getting stuck in and trying some flat burrs again.

dutchy101

2nd kilo of this. Too good

CoyoteOldMan

dutchy101 Sold out…

LMSC

dutchy101 One of my favourites.

dutchy101

CoyoteOldMan Ah no. So glad I grabbed another kilo when I did

Penance Nice, did you get it direct from 1Zpresso or local distributer, still waiting for the Zp6 special to be available in UK but tempted to buy direct

Penance

ken0062 got it from Sigma, 3 days to arrive.

tompoland

In between the giants…

(Like I really needed another grinder! But wanted to see what it’s like.)

CoyoteOldMan

tompoland By my reckoning, there’s another giant on the bench side reserved for brewing, rather than grinding, no?

😁😉

tompoland

CoyoteOldMan hmm… not that I can see CoyoteOldMan. I do have a Gevi 4 in 1 in the office though and that has a well regarded brew grinder.

tompoland

This beauty finally arrived today, 9 months after ordering…

CoyoteOldMan

tompoland See? All it needed was a little nudge… 😂

Congratulations, and looking forward to reading what you think of it!

CrownandCanvas

tompoland

CoyoteOldMan All it needed was a little nudge

Trust me COM, I need no encouragement!

tompoland

CoyoteOldMan looking forward to reading what you think of it!

I’ll write a review in around 3 months. Could do a short “first impressions” after Christmas though.

I pulled a few pretty average shots yesterday and this morning one of my worst shots ever followed by a shot that was pure yum yum. So still got my learner plates on.
