Inclusive of all drinks not just coffee. We even have some hummingbird nectar up top for our little wild friends.

      I will confess I mostly bought it for the wooden handle. But it’s a dream for pour overs. We had a bonavita but it crapped out after like 6 months.

        Ditto. My only issue with it is that the top can be impossible to pull off when it’s hot. If I want to refill I often have to let it cool.

      Nop, love that countertop. (I’d pick another colour for the wall though, to have it stand out more)

          Glad to be of service. ;)

          We have a green wallpaper on the walls in the kitchen. I thought it would be to dark with northern light, but it looks nice. Here is a picture before we replaced the blue kitchen cabinets with a beige set with black counter top. (mess, as it was during the work) Works here, but we have light from the window and lighter cabinets.

    First thing I saw was the Campari. Have you tried an iced coffee Negroni/americano? Super delicious. Iced coffee, vermouth, Campari. I also found that aperol in iced coffee went pretty well.

    Otherwise, I love this setup! Moka pot, espresso, liquor cabinet. It’s all there!

      Oh my partner would love the Negroni Americano probably, thanks for the recommendation! I drink mostly Moscow mules or wine if I drink at all. I’m more of an edible person.

    I love my Breville Touch! I’d be curious to see if I could notice any difference between that and the Oracle

      If I remember correctly the oracle has auto grinding and tamping as the main feature. Not sure what else it’s got above the touch but this has been a god send during Covid.

      It’s 5.5’x2’. You should totally go for it! When we bought this house it was the first time we had anything like this and it’s so nice to keep all the drink stuff together. Plus it clears space on our kitchen counters.

    Do you roast there or move it outside when you want to roast? The smoke seems like you wouldn’t want it in a finished space without some serious ventilation.
