@simonbs No need to apologise for being yourself. ☕️

I’m interested in why you picked that particular machine? I’ll be in the market for a new machine soonish.

@ryanbooker The main reasons I picked this machine are (in no particular order):

• It's a dual thermoblock machine, so it heats up fast and I can steam milk while pulling an espresso shot.
• It has a hot water outlet, which was important to me as I make a lot of americanos.
• It doesn't have any "smart" features. It was a no-go for me to get a machine with Bluetooth.
• I very much like the aesthetics of it and its means of interacting with it.

@simonbs I don’t drink coffee or espresso, but it’s still been fun to see your experiments :)

@simonbs No way, don’t apologize! It’s great seeing a more personalized and normalized side of the tech sector.
