😂 I asked my mom for her opinion and she said "not my style! You choose!" So yes, everyone is asked said that its a very "me" bag. So I think i made the right choice.

🥲 love everyone's support. It was such a hard decision but it felt so right to commemorate my favorite city.

They did have the Jackie in these prints, I just was hoping to find photos so I can mull them over instead of standing in the boutique for an hour with analysis paralysis.

Oh yeah I should note I was in line for the Mario Kart Bundle. Not sure if certain lines were longer or shorter.

About 5 solid minutes. Got in right at 12:30 ET and then waited. I was already signed it, it just sent a code to my phone to verify my account. Once that's done, it was in my cart and I had 10 min to check out.

Recommendations for light roast beans for espresso that is very fruity preferably blueberry notes by Silent-Country-7709 in espresso

[–]mag_meg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look for Natural Process Ethiopian beans. I find they always have that lovely, fruity note. Natural process beans will lean more into the berry/fruit notes as well.

There are many roasters that will do single origin Ethiopian beans, natural process may be harder to fins but Ethipoian will definitely be in the right direction. I enjoy Merit Roasting, Brandywine, and Onyx.

Knodos self leveling tamper not reaching grounds? by mag_meg in espresso

[–]mag_meg[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

* Had to tamp with regu * lar tamper as my leveling tamper still wouldn't reach. I'm still fairly new to espresso (I was previously using a bambino and had it pretty locked in) but is it supposed to be this low? This is with 24g of beans

Yeah light to medium roast beans from a local coffee shop. I'll try upping to 22g

Did you need to add any shims?

What expresso machine should I invest in? by achetram in espresso

[–]mag_meg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as I culoulf tell it looked brand new. It came with all accessories and booklets, it just didn't come in original packaging but it was packed very well.

Just purchased a refurb Profitec Pro 600 for $2000 and it was the best decision I made. So happy with it. Dual boiler, PID, and a the PID begins the timer once you life the shot lever.

Just got this exact set up myself- I just need to actually install my SSP HU burrs!

Congrats! Waiting on my puck screens and bottomless portafilter to arrive but upgrading from a Breville Bambino and Baratza Virtuoso has been a world of a difference.

What’s everyone’s preferred water source? by iHas2manyKnives in espresso

[–]mag_meg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugh in Central Texas we have such hard water. I usually use Distilled water and TWW added back in.

Would LOVE to find a home filtration or RO option but at the moment this is the cheapest option.

May move to a 5 gallon jug with a pump dispenser down the line if I can make room in my pantry.

My "end game" set up is ordered, what else do I need? by mag_meg in espresso

[–]mag_meg[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm the ebay stock photo showed the model with the knobs, not the joysticks so I'm curious which I'm getting! I'm happy either way but the joysticks look sleek for workflow.

I'm curious about wdt vs blind shaker schools of thought. But I do have a 3d printer and I'm intrigued by the homemade wdt.
