Hi, I’m Michael from County Durham
I landed here after going on a health kick during lockdown, losing a ton of weight and moving my perfect draft beer machine to our weekend holiday home so I’m not tempted to drink during the week. This has left a gap on my counter at home which (I have convinced myself) can only be filled with a decent espresso setup, something I’ve always wanted.
My previous attempts at good espresso were all drinkable but frustrating so I settled with a cheap bean to cup for day to day use. I also use aeropress, moka pots, cleverdripper and mocamaster depending on what I fancy at the time.
Anyway, it’s been a great year at work, I’ll have a decent bonus coming and I’m going to treat myself. I think I’ve settled on a Lelit Elizabeth with Mignon grinder, hoping to order in the next week or so, probably from Bellabarista.
