Great job Larry!

When are you selling it and starting on another?

 :)

PS ... how do the shots compare to the Sama?

 :)
A buddy of mine was over with his wife.  We pulled 30 or so shots tonight (trying to teach him latte art).  One sink shot (1st one) and the rest of them.... dang, I'm lovin this machine.  Next up is getting the Sama and La Pavoni in the same ball park and then a lever throwdown....

Hmm ... maybe you will be up all night pulling espresso.

Nice looking shot.  What did you pull and how did it taste?

As old as he is, it was probably the right pectoral or bicep.

That looked like a great shot and if it tasted as good as it looked ... it must have tasted fantastic!
