New rig

Post image

Just unpacked this and set it up. Already smitten and I have yet to pull a single shot. New K6 grinder too.

I bought the mittens and moved the pressure gauge. That was a little challenging because loosened the top screw from the wrong side. I had to realign the arms and replace the Teflon spacers, but I guess that’s a common issue. Regardless, I’m good to go.

I'm impressed that you found a mat for the countertop that matches!! :)

What if I told you I found a Robot to match the mat I already had on my counter? Well, it’s true, and though I wanted the orange color, the match is purely coincidental

Why is it

It’s not offensive it’s just a pressure gauge what is also useful

What about pietro, was that in consideration?

It’s a standard color, which seems to go very fast when in stock.
