Here she is!
Old girl is carrying the load while I read instructions but I got this beauty. First cup will have to wait as I’m meeting a friend for lunch but isn’t she a beaut?

I am currently brewing my first cup! I think maybe Lucy. She’s got a retro classic feel.

What’s the thing on the left. A grinder?

I’m pretty sure that is the heating element for the water.

Honest day one review: this thing is smarter than I am. First pot I got some spillage probably due to the wonky set up I was trying. Something looks off kilter in that first photo.
Honestly I don’t love having to bring water to the machine as opposed to bringing the reservoir to water but that moves feels European and like I will grow to love it. Non-detachable water reservoir also means I will keep the top left covered with a towel when not in use to avoid my ever present stray cat hairs finding a home in the water reservoir.


First sip…

Delicious!! Darker than I usually make but I can titrate that. Different than my easy $20 job and deeper. Day one notes, it might slow down my coffee ritual in the morning but it is worth the sips. Now to work on that leak. Should I actually read the full manual or check out some stuff online, those of you who are super researchers heads’ just exploded, right? Cheers coffee lovers! :coffee::coffee:

Just like sobriety this will take work to get my rhythm down. It is a beautiful contraption that I have to get smart enough to run. :joy:

Are you feeling any better Jazz?

I absolutely had I love Lucy in mind when I read your post.

I’m sure it’ll be a fun time getting the rhythm down :wink: in doing well enough… mentally much much better and that helps deal with the rest. Thank you for asking :pray:t4:
