Show Us Your Coffee Station!

[Bob_Defly]

I see quite a few posts on here about automatic coffee machines, but not much about proper espresso or pour over set ups. Anyway, here's my coffee station!

My coffee bar was getting a bit messy and tired, so I spent last weekend putting up some accent wallpaper, and sanding and painting an old cabinet. I bought some silicone mats from amazon to go under everything so as not to damage the top.



The espresso machine is a Profitec Pro 700 that I really like 'cos it's dual boiler.



The espresso grinder is a Profitec Pro T64, which has been very reliable over the years.



I have the Baratza Sette 270 set up for pour overs, using a Hario V60 Kasuya dripper, into a Kruve Pique carafe. And the scale is a Timemore Black Mirror (in white). It's totally changed the look of the room, love it!

Sorry normalbloke, that must be awful. Did your home insurance replace everything?

Blimey, coffee is getting to be the new hifi.

Next topics:-

• Will an oxygen free 99.9999% pure silver swan neck kettle make a difference to the bitterness profile?
• What filtration system do I need for the water to acheive maximum crema?
• Will an external power supply improve my grind?
• Budget shootout - Mellow Birds or Happy Shopper?

It was the day we installed it! Looks a little more lived in now, you know, buried in socks and pants etc…

Strongly recommend nobody adopt this hobby, it’s a black hole. Have a few setups but this is the one in the flat.

Nice, that's what I'm talking about! Money pit time!

Hardly ever use the B2C, only for guests. Daily brew is a V60. I thought about changing the Sage SGP but in all honestly it’s perfect for the job.



The in-house barista needs more training.

Don't care what you say, working in a coffee shop

It's a dogs life!

They do the job, even the Italians use them.

Mine is exactly the same, just the black Linea mini and the black niche. Your tiles are much nicer.

That all looks very cool!

I am an oppressed coffee geek (my coffee machine/grinder/Chemex apparently took up "too much space") but moving my home office out of the house means I will soon have space for a proper brew area to be hidden in some cabinetry. Out of interest, how wide is your whole setup?

Going to be putting in a sink/fridge/slimline dishwasher, will dig out the Rocky grinder and Chemex to kick things off, but need to make sure I leave enough counter space for everything so need to start planning.

Thanks! I think it's just over 6ft wide.
