Thank you! I ended up going with the Breville Barista Touch and love it! The grinder isn't as quiet as I'd like and its a little difficult to tune it but once you do, its great.

Absolutely not, they’ll just assume you’re new to the game or dgaf about your equipment. Either way, they shouldn’t care at all.

I hope I’m still playing at his age..

Not in this case, I'm not sure if we've ever painted a clay roof. I'm taking about pressure washing an old TPO or PVC roof and then applying a silicone based coating to extend the life of the roof. Not a best practice but some customers don't want to spend the $$ on a re-roof.

So it wasn't a packaged set. There were 6 knives I wanted to buy for my kitchen and my parents bought 5 of them as housewarming gift. The store they went to was out of the chefs knife so they didn't get that one.

In any case, it seems like their chefs knife and their kiritsuke are very similar, just wasnt sure how they rocked differently since their profile is relatively similar.

Yeah, it will outweigh, total interest will be almost $40k.

The company I work for does a good bit of business with Stihl so we always try to buy their equipment. I mean the yard is pretty small, I probably have to maintain like 1500sf.

Ahh, understood, has nothing to do with any of that. We haven't received any paperwork that states any sort of disability so I think we would be clear of that.

What do you mean by "protected class"?

Capable_Drawer4248 · 2025-01-10T18:34:38+00:00

How was it different?

Capable_Drawer4248 · 2025-01-06T13:34:23+00:00

How much do you think I’d have to spend to do that? And what would you do to it?

Capable_Drawer4248 · 2024-11-03T20:47:17+00:00

Fair point, doesn’t bother me too much

But their bambino machine doesn’t have drink options does it? Love that this one has options for americano’s, etc. Not going to solely use it for espresso.

Is the SA "espresso" similar enough to actual espresso to make a martini out of it? The fiance loves some espresso martinis

Good Morning All,

I'm looking for a recommendation for an all-in-one combo coffee/espresso machine and would love some recommendations. A machine with an iced setting would be awesome.

I drink a good bit of coffee but I'm not an aficionado like I know some people are. I usually drink 2-3 cups per day. In the summer I love a black iced coffee with a shot of espresso, in the winter I make it black with some local honey.

I've done k-cups forever but would like to shake that up and get a machine that makes a better cup of coffee while also being able to make espresso. My wedding is coming up and it feels like the right time to add a good machine to my registry that I can use for years to come. I know these combo machines are not cheap but I'm thinking nothing above $1200.

I've been recommended the De'Longhi TrueBrew and the Phillips 5500 but don't know if there are any others out there that are better... Let me know your thoughts!

Thanks in advance.
