New setup (thelemmy.club)

Yesterday i got a used rancilio Silvia with some tools for a good price. I want to convert it with a gaggimate. Someone has done ~something~ with some pid controller which I have not noticed. Had the hand mill for filter coffe already.

Last evening I experimented with cheap storbought decaf, and shock and horror. It was so dark roast and so old, that there were no notes other than "roasted".

This morning I tried some actually good coffee and it was nice for a first try.

Look a "flower"... My late art is lacking.

I have loads to learn and loads to play

I just gave away my old and basic Gaggia that I hadn’t even touched in years. Just because I’ve limited my coffee intake to one cup per day and that cup comes in the morning and it’s made on a V60.
