What did postman bring today ?
- Edited
My Picopresso from Nanopresso. It met and indeed exceeded my expectations. It initially seemed complicated to assemble and use, but it was simpler than I thought. I quickly learned how to use it. It’s very well built. And with my first use, I poured as good (maybe even better) a shot of espresso that I did with my Lelit E. I’m looking forward to travelling with it, starting with my daughter’s wedding on Vancouver Island this coming week. 😄
I saw these on a website. I cannot remember the exact price but they were less than £6 each. That included delivery and some really good packaging! Very nice to look at and use!

Decent De1pro v1.45 - Niche Duo - Niche Zero - Decent is the best machine ever made -
Ordered the Honduran / Motor Oil / Ethiopian special one.
I saw this roaster from Holland recommended recently. Had a look at their site and they are quite expensive but offer free shipping if you spend 60 Euros. SO, the one I fancied was this at 32 Euros for 200 gms:

Because of the value of the goods being less than £135, that’s up to the seller to sort out.
One of the reasons some sellers in the EU won’t sell directly to you if you spend less than £135. E.g.: it’s now harder to buy coffee machine spares/parts from the EU if you are in the UK.
The shipment arrived the day after it was dispatched by DPD. No mention of any taxes by anyone. Free shipping saved me something like £3 to £6 and that is based on UK delivery, not coming in from the EU. So, am looking forward to opening these and hope they live up to expectations!

Coffee is zero rated for VAT, so not a problem.
