New bar in my kitchen addition is the new home for my baby. One day I’ll get all the wood accents but for now I’m going just enjoy some espresso!

Filter, electric and plumbing is under the counter. I’m loving the Varia VS3 grinder. I had a Eureka Mignon Specialita and it just crapped out. Honestly I’m never buying another one and the Varia is built 100x better.

Tip: get an experienced commercial coffee maker plumber to plumb this machine. It took two plumbers to figure it out. I highly recommend going thru the pain though. It’s amazing to not have to keep filling the reservoir and draining the drip pan!

    I thought you were going to suggest marrying a barrista for a moment.

    Which cost more? The new bar or machine? 😂

    Perfect! I need this.. Good coffee and wine!

    Generally you should keep your portafilter in the machine to help prevent the group head gasket drying out. Though I’m not sure if this is necessary for the LM.

    Very pretty though 😍

    Beautiful. Curious, where did the cabinets come from?

    That sink right next to the machine is an underrated touch. Walking back and forth from machine to sink is annoying after each shot😂

    I want that machine so bad, but it’s crazy expensive, you’re lucky to have it.

    The backsplash is an eyesore. But nice coffee machine.

    It’s a nice enough setup. But all that machine paired with that grinder?

    That’s a very nice setup. Backsplash, countertop, sink, and of course espresso machine.
