That is a little out of my league, Dom will have to have me over for coffee biatch training sessions first.
(I have a feeling I am not allowed to use that one though, and I understand completely)

That thing is a beaut Dom! Nice choice!

That is about what the good ones cost... They are lifetime purchases and can be fixed pretty easily should something ever wear out. Yes, it is a lot of money for "coffee", but many Americans spend over that a year at Starbucks and the like.

Grinder can go $400...

Oh I know, I'm not saying it's an outrageous spenditure. For myself though, this year alone I've spent maybe.. ~$50 on Starbucks. And on coffee in general. I love the stuff, can't get enough of it.. But at $5 a cup at Starbucks.. I generally pass.

Right now I am using the tank, the plan is to have it plumbed in, in the near future.

Are you able to fill the tank easily? Looks a little tight to the cabinets above. I mounted my cabinets higher just to make it easier to fill my machine, lol...

It's easy enough to fill it, but it goes through water at an amazing rate.
The biggest issue is there is no window or gauge for the water level.
The tank is nearly 3 liters, and I've managed run out mid shot.

Shane will be eligible for my barista course as soon as he completes my prerequisites.
