Oh we’ve all been there. One day I was half awake, I think my body was just on auto-pilot. I just dumped my grinds right into the knock box, without brewing. I was like Noooooo
Mine was forgetting to attach the receptacle to my grinder and grinding straight to the counter.

Oh yes I know this exact situation 😩 Also: – Accidentally hitting and denting the beautiful front panel of the machine with the portafilter. – Realizing the portafilter was locked in and forgot temping … what a mess.
I have dumped my freshly done shots into the sink more than once. It’s the worst.
My kids wonder why I don’t ever let them help me with the espresso machine. I can barely run it myself and am in desperate need of caffeine. I haven’t got that much patience to let them do it, especially when I’m clumsy and stuff like this happens to me way too often.

I went back to bed after I made not ONE but TWO cups of coffee after I knocked the first one over then the second one. Keep in mind I add oat milks and almond creamer. It’s when I stir I knock it over or accidentally bump into it putting things away

You are not alone, friend. Not by a long shot, from the look of the comments. Hang in there, everyone.

Better than the time I was suited up and wondering, will a channeling spurt from my bottomless portafilter get on my newly pressed white shirt? Perhaps I should get a napkin…oohh i got away with it! *drops mug, latte defies physics and shoots out of said mug like a cannonball at my shirt, small dog begins lapping caffiene up off the floor..I reconsider the two decisions i’ve made that day, one being getting out of bed

This would send me on a grippy sock vacay not gonna lie.

Honestly you could turn this B&W and hang it above the machine. Or leave it as it. Nice pic either way!

Making coffee before coffee is no joke

I’ve never done this. It’s usually my pitcher of steamed milk that ends up spilled.
LordVixen
You need a coffee before you do that.

First World Problems. 😆
Your portafilter is tiny, you rockin the 12mm?
It’s happened to all of us. Try again in a bit.

Should’ve had your coffee first

Good idea, I went back to bed after I did this.
Child, animal or self inflicted?
Nothing compares to launching a grinder without any container beneath and realizing after whole grind is done
Do we all take a picture first lol

Ah yes, the old, “How does one make coffee before they’ve had coffee” conundrum.
You dropped something
Been there for sure. Literally the other day I put cereal in the cup full of ice that I was about to pour my shot into. I really needed that espresso.

I am wondering if first coffee in the morning should always be [https://youtu.be/YxEqtiOYri0?si=UDyBpLr01fUAhWyU](https://youtu.be/YxEqtiOYri0?si=UDyBpLr01fUAhWyU).
Any thoughts ?
