Lever operated? Your joking right? Pod adapter was a thought, but nope ain't gonna do it. Will it fly? Nope ain't gonna fly. Prolly just a vibe to rotary conversion ;-) I guess we will see this coming Sunday Mr. Williams.......... You see I bought the family a new car, a Volvo XC70, and it needs a little shake down cruise. So me and my sidekick, 13 year old future coffee guy, and son, Sean, are going to have coffee at Barefoot on Sunday and I think we will make it on your machine. You should really join us. I will have some of the new Pallo tools and Joe Glo for you Bay area folks, as well. So if you want to see what Dom's machine has become over these past few weeks meet us in San Fran.

Dom, no worries....pictures are for those without imagination ;-) And what do the Andreja guys care one way or the other? A little WWDP will solve it, West Coast Babee........ If I get to Oakland early Saturday I will do my work at Zocolo Coffee House and then be at Barefoot Early Sunday ( 10:00? ). Pictures will be posted on Sunday I guess, but really it's about what the coffee taste like right?

I was concerned enough after determining that there is a "sub" class (for want of a better word) of Andreja owners on this site that I wrote to the Moderator and asked that this thread, which is starting to actually concern itself with the TASTE of the machine, be bumped to the top of the forum permanently. I remember my first post here, waiting for my machine to arrive, checking the tracking number every day like some eB*y drone, installing a filtration system, and then it came. And then I had to learn how to pull a shot... hmmm. The taste? There was a stainless cover for access to adjust boiler pressure. It had a little black knob on it. I gave it a try... IT TASTES HORRIBLE, and cut my lips! And now... taunting. No, it's not a killer Wega, but a lowly QuickMill. It has a noisy vibe pump and the stainless BITES and has a METALLIC AFTERTASTE, though the blood has an interesting mouthfeel.

Then leave it in an email. Or take it to instant messenger. Those are two far more appropriate forums for a conversation between two or three people. When you have something to post that others might be interested in, post away.
