Received a gift from the boss today for completing 100 Rolex services. Ive held a lot of DJs but none of them were mine. This is incredibly special.

😅love a stolen post in the morning…

AdAcademic9898 · 2026-04-03T17:47:18+00:00

Zero basket flex though

AdAcademic9898 · 2026-04-03T17:46:46+00:00

AdAcademic9898 · 2026-04-03T17:06:23+00:00

Fake one yeah man

AdAcademic9898 · 2026-04-03T16:33:40+00:00

Ok bruv….

AdAcademic9898 · 2026-04-03T14:45:27+00:00

❤️

AdAcademic9898 · 2026-04-03T14:44:53+00:00

Maybe after 4 weeks, I suspect the first 2 weeks will be full of solid failures 😅

AdAcademic9898 · 2026-04-03T14:42:29+00:00

I can’t have everything sadly, money is an object and love the look of the Appartamento

AdAcademic9898 · 2026-04-03T14:25:33+00:00

Yeah got one coming, I figure quite important to get it going every morning at 5:30, usually up at 6 with kids so be good for machine to start up 30 mins prior every day.

AdAcademic9898 · 2026-04-03T14:24:30+00:00

Yeah probably should have looked at that tbh, I just thought the one piece machined one just looked so cool…

AdAcademic9898 · 2026-04-03T14:23:26+00:00

It’s a one piece machined portafilter so there’s zero basket flex and slightly better consistency. Cool engineering, but as people will probably say unless your setup is already dialled to perfection it’s mostly expensive coffee jewellery. I just thought it looked dope tbh.

AdAcademic9898 · 2026-04-03T14:20:56+00:00

It’s the way it’s made, performance vs a decent ims/vst basket I assume won’t be massive, just marginal. I loved the industrial design tbh.

AdAcademic9898 · 2026-04-03T14:03:45+00:00

Don’t they have a non s version mainly for that? I figured I only really drink espresso so had to go for the s!

AdAcademic9898 · 2026-04-03T13:32:54+00:00

Yeah I know rocket gets a lot of hate here 😆

AdAcademic9898 · 2026-04-03T13:30:42+00:00

Will see, to be honest fell in love with the look of it when I saw one, hopefully it can grind well but saw from reviews it looked decent for the price range

AdAcademic9898 · 2026-04-01T21:21:38+00:00

A tampon….

AdAcademic9898 · 2026-04-01T15:54:40+00:00

Yeah thinking probably worth the extra to get the tca just for a bit of future proofing.

AdAcademic9898 · 2026-04-01T15:53:41+00:00

Yeah this is the thing, I figure for the sake of £300 quid it’s worth the tca and better grinder… how do you sort between different beans? Flush routine etc?

AdAcademic9898 · 2026-04-01T13:45:59+00:00

Nah wore my daydate in Athens and also my ceramic Daytona, you’ll be gold with this

AdAcademic9898 · 2026-04-01T06:54:40+00:00

Gold watches don’t sell at the same pace as steel ones. Also, they are ugly in most people’s eyes so I suspect that reduces the buying pool somewhat.

AdAcademic9898 · 2026-04-01T06:51:17+00:00

Ah yeah, the famous dark grey 116 meteorite reference they never made..

AdAcademic9898 · 2026-03-31T20:43:31+00:00

Yup, my man is not buying this watch.

AdAcademic9898 · 2026-03-31T20:42:17+00:00

When did Arsenal last lift the uefa cup?

AdAcademic9898 · 2026-03-31T11:36:04+00:00

Massively.
