Damn love it! What is that pressurized press thing?

It’s a lever espresso machine, this one is the Odyssey Argos.

hungryhungryhippos · June 30, 2024, 5:15pm

No idea what that is but that sounds pretty cool

@hungryhungryhippos you should quit while the going is the good. there is an endless rabbit hole of lusty coffee gear.

hungryhungryhippos · June 30, 2024, 6:22pm

I don’t think I’m gonna go nuts maybe just an espresso machine and that’s a big maybe

breakeven comes pretty quickly at 2 cups a day

Yeah I have saved so much money from just doing pourovers the last two weeks and my local is usually charging 5.50-9 for those.

I usually get the drip for 3.80 though

sup messy station havers. I raise you: toaster between machine and grinder.

hungryhungryhippos · July 2, 2024, 4:43pm

I tried with a coarser grind the past couple days (26-30) and didn’t love the results went back to 25 and enjoying the flavor more

hungryhungryhippos · July 4, 2024, 12:47am

Where is this at? Looks like a solid McMuffin rendition

dvlpmnt · July 4, 2024, 1:44am

hungryhungryhippos · July 4, 2024, 1:54am

Oh damn nice what type of English muffin is that? It looks good

dvlpmnt · July 4, 2024, 2:09am

I make them myself lol. maybe one day if I get my shit together I will finally get around to doing a breakfast sando pop up.

hungryhungryhippos · July 4, 2024, 2:15am

Do you like it? I have a single boiler PID’d machine and also a vintage lever (Arrarex Caravel). But I’ve been flirting with that and the Strietman. There are also some intriguing lever machines from China on AliExpress…

chaumein · July 10, 2024, 5:28pm

It’s nice and compact and does everything I need. There are some growing pains with it being a first gen product, but the value for the price is great.

I do miss my Cremina though and would love to try the Strietman one day.

ShadrackToussaint · July 10, 2024, 5:30pm

Cool, thanks! I’m thinking about putting down a deposit. Seems like a great value.

Btw, what are those grinders lurking back there if you don’t mind me asking? I have a Kinu m47 but need a nicer motored grinder than my Sette.

chaumein · July 10, 2024, 5:35pm

A couple older Kafatek grinders (Monolith Max and MC4 with an upgraded burrset). One has 98mm flat burrs and the other is a conical with a pre-breaker. I have a Kinu as well!
