    My wife has that same coffee pot and LOVES IT. So much so that when she moved away from her dad’s, they got in a (friendly) fight over it because she wanted it but it’s actually his, and she ultimately caved and bought her own. So now we have one too!

      I’m a pour over guy (I like the ritual) but needed something for mornings where I’m lazy and watching f1 or when girlfriends Folgers loving mom comes over. It has performed beautifully for both purposes

      Thank you! It isn’t very fancy but for my modest budget and building over the last few years it is nice. The encore esp brought it all together. I had burrs but it was a cheaper model with less consistency and didn’t go espresso fine and I wanted a real basket for my dedica.

      So the knock box is just a cheap 20 dollar one I found on Amazon. The espresso machine is a Delonghi Dedica. I replaced the steam nozzle with a replacement tip. I’m thinking of replacing it with the rancilo steam wand. I also got a normcore bottomless portafilter basket combo. The wdt tool and tamp are also just ones I found on Amazon. The grinder is the new baratza Encore ESP the drip is the Bonavita 5 cup and the kettle is the bonavita as well.

      Not pictured a moka pot (I’m Italian I have to) l, Aeropress, French press, v60.
