The Espresso Ledge

That's quite a setup. Outside of showing off, what else could you want that your set does not do already?

The honest answer is nothing. But upgraditis is a strong mistress

Not entirely true. I like the idea of one of the electronic grinders where dosing is programable and repeatable

LMAO! A few things to consider and really check out is how much grind retention different commercial grinders have. I have seen people mention the Mahlkonig K30 Vario needs 10-15g purge to clear stale grounds from the chute and it can be more for some of the other big grinders. That being said I love the Baratza Vario and it's timer, once dialed in for weight I can just hit start and get the exact dose I want for a particular bean or blend and what goes in comes out with very little grind retention. I am waiting for the Mahlkonig prom espresso to come out and see what people think, the all purpose prom does not entice me with what many have said about it and at it's price it is a hop skip and jump to the k30.

So what grinder are you lusting after?

Here is the espresso machine I am looking to get soon http://www.chriscoffee.com/products/...presso/juniord

Chris coffee is right down the road from me, so I'm there frequently to pick up beans, etc.

You must be reading my mind, it's the K30 I want, LOL. they currently have a return for a couple hundred off, and I'm sure I can get it even cheaper.
