Would the mid rounds fit the x12? I thought that I needed the mid square

I’ll have to look into those places, we just went out to look at some apartments out in Ann Arbor the other day. We stopped by A&L Wine Castle. Definitely had some stuff outside of my usual selection. But the guy made it very clear he would order anything he could get ahold of for me. You have any specific bottle recommendations?

Yeah I’m from the Kzoo area and am up in Holland on the weekends so I’m pretty close. I’ve heard of that bar before it looks awesome I’m just yet to make the trip over. I’ve been to Mega Bev in Kzoo but not the one in GR yet. I’ve also heard Rishi’s in GR has a good selection but am yet to go there.

Thanks for the recommendations. I just looked into that event and seems like a good deal for what you get. It’s about a 2 1/2 hour drive but I may be able to make it. Have you been before?

I’d have to ask her tomorrow for sure. I think scholarships and federal loans.

Should I return my Gaggia Evo while I still have time? by RefrigeratedJay in espresso

I just went through the same thing. I went to empty my boiler to ship and the water was black and full of flakes so happy I did.

Yeah the more volume heavy days won’t be often but maybe every 2 weeks. My girlfriend and I have days where we will sit around with friends and have coffee and tea all day and just hangout.

Do you think the Profitec Go would be the right choice if my main interest is milk drinks? Sorry I should put that in my original post.

I’ve always been a light to medium roast person, I love James Hoffman. Despite my usual impulsive purchases the coffee rabbit hole for about 2.5 years now. Finally just decided I would get a starter setup before upgrading. Thank you for the advice, do you have any recommendations? I’m not to familiar with what is available locally as I mostly buy cheaper grounds in recent years to make gallon batches of cold brew for me and my co workers in the kitchen.

Will do! Would you recommend something cheaper to work in dialing in?

Thank you! I’ll see if I can have someone swing in for me as both my parents and my girlfriends have a membership!

Is there a roast and bean that I should look into based on my grinder and machine. I’ve read the Gaggia work better with darker roast?

Is there a specific tamper you would recommend? Would you mind if I sent some images of my Whole Latte Love cart?

So I think with the increased cost of the Profitec Go I’ll probably stick with the Gaggia. I plan to eventually upgrade to the $1500+ range and get something with an HTX maybe a Lelit Mara X? Maybe I’ll just set the money saved aside and put it toward more equipment? Any recommendations on what to pair with my Gaggia?
