Hey guys. This is my first post! I've been reading about The Clover machine before I registered here and over at Chowhound and am curious to try some of its coffee... I think P&S and Artigiano have machines... are there any others in town?

Welcome! You can try a Clover-brewed coffee at those two places and shortly (in a couple of weeks) at the new Kawa Espresso Bar at 1333-8 St SW.

I finally drifted out to JJ in Cochrane yesterday- aside, the espresso was pretty good- the latte was the 2nd best I have had in my life, wow- aside ends. Speaking with the Barista there he said Kawa may have 2  Clovers going. Maybe we  will find out Monday they had a bldng inspection yesterday and if it went well Monday is the opening, if not another week or two!

Kawa has configured their bar for two Clovers - currently they have one and we hope to have the second available for them in time for opening, but it may arrive a little later.  Either way be prepared for some amazing coffee in a cafe that is (and will be) simply beautiful.

Yep, you're right, got it from the horse's mouth today.

They're still not open, awaiting some more inspections (health, electrical, plumbing)- this project was a complete retrofit of a space that had had no food uses so it's very comlicated. Having said, there were 3 staff wiping things down and I got a perfect macciato gratis. Here's the Synesso:
