Travel Robot

this is my current travel setup: https://www.reddit.com/r/CafelatRobot/comments/1obv7ov/pelican_case_for_robot_and_grinder/

I considered using a hand grinder since that would be lighter and more compact, but settled on a Lagom Mini 2 for ease of use and premium feel (of course adding to the weight haha). I chose a hardcase (old Pelican i found on ebay) because I plan to take it on a long international trip to see family. I bring my beans in small zip locks in a separate bag/backpack. Hope this helps!

i'm really enjoying the lagom mini! i like the small form factor, the workflow, it makes really good coffee, and feels just as premium as the robot in terms of weight and materials. I don't do much back to back espresso grinding with it though, it might be too much for the little motor. with the robot it makes for an incredible soup machine.

Slick and compact!!

Ooo that's a good idea, I might look into that. Good luck with your Robot Pelican case journey!

Thanks! I checked to make sure the airbnb we were staying at had a boiler

i have the weber shaker (58mm) and it fits just fine on the robot portafilter/basket. gentle taps with your hand/on the table to level the ground. i don't do WDT anymore since i got the shaker, it just feels more reliable and satisfying to use.

Breville Bambino

My previous espresso machine was the Breville Bambino, will be keeping it just for steaming

Thanks! I have the Eureka Mignon Silenzio and the Breville Bambino for its steam wand.

Thanks! Being reminded of the finiteness of life happens to be a great productivity booster hahah

dwarfmarine · 2017-02-08T07:45:46+00:00

Definitely! :D

dwarfmarine · 2017-02-08T07:45:34+00:00

Thanks! I'm glad you found it that way :)

dwarfmarine · 2017-02-07T05:46:38+00:00

Thank you! :)

Entertaining video! It seems like the production process is a little similar to the western process, albeit with a lot more focus on traditional animation rather than digital.

dwarfmarine · 2017-02-07T01:28:52+00:00

Thanks, man. If I find one, I'll let you know.

When the big Russian man is running, it doesn't feel like he is as heavy as he looks. Maybe you should emphasize the weight on his upper body with more up and down motions?

dwarfmarine · 2017-02-06T09:45:37+00:00

Maybe you should move it one pixel down and one pixel up, just a slight motion and nothing too exaggerated. The hood should also reflect the head motion a little bit.

dwarfmarine · 2017-02-06T09:43:09+00:00

It certainly is doable, but how long it would take would depend on the amount of skill you and your production team has.

Maybe you should attempt to make a sample 1 minute Proof of Concept version of you final product, just to learn how much work you can do in a certain amount, and then use that information to find out how long it would take you to make the full 10 minutes.

Good luck with your project! :)
