Nice grinder
Your machine certainly looks nice and shiny, what do you clean it with?

Anyone walked through Piccadilly Circus recently? I just spotted what looks to be a new coffee shop called Piccadilly Grind? Looks like they were still setting up but was full of small bags of beans, hopefully to buy!
If its any good I'd feel sorry for the new(ish) espresso bar just outside exit 1 as they're bound to take a lot of their business!
Walked through Piccadilly Circus yesterday afternoon but missed that some how. Will have to keep my eyes open in future!Opened today. Was dishing out free coffee this afternoon iirc.
Should be pretty good as it's the same guys as Shorditch Grind.
On a sidenote, I guess it's the season but why is no-one stocking any nice full-bodied chocolately/nutty beans anymore? Everything is all fruit and floral whcih I'm guessing is great for espresso, but I only have an aeropress and like my coffee with milk dammit!
Got my new grinder!
After a few recommendations from here I went with the Eureka Mignon.
Very pleased with it, cant believe how rubbish my old krups one was in comparison!
Not as big as I thought it might be which is a bonus, sits nicely next to my (rather dirty looking!) Silvia.
At the same time I added the PID, bought it direct from the U.S arrived in 2 days!
Wasn't sure if I was going to cut the front panel and mount it internally, so its stuck on with blu-tack at the mo
or is it just e-peen for the coffee enthusiasts
Well although I didn't catch all the competitors the ones I did were outstanding as you would expect at this level.
Some interesting ideas and the first time I have ever heard/seen filtering espresso's which seems like an experiment to try some day. Maybe it's what I need to try and help me love straight espresso.
I think it was Kapo who did some crazy espresso atomization which seemed like a really interesting experience and I think he is going to a couple of places in London and Bath (wonder if he will be going over to Maxwell's place)
I wonder if Starbucks will get involved with WBC travelling over to Seattle next year?
