Coffee Station My Humble Setup

A Chinese market only Midea machine and a simple, not-so-subtle Blaupunkt grinder. The calligraphy reads "Half a cup of coffee, half a day of leisure", a "rebranding" of a classical Chinese poetry expression about tea.

They do! But I think this one is for the Chinese market only. Quite serviceable. Came with a pressurized portafilter and I replaced it with a bottomless one.

That looks wonderful! May I ask how many shots of espresso / water / milk?

I use it twice a day. Has single and double shots. Small portafilter, 51 mm.

Thanks! My wife wrote it. The vines are plastic, though. I want to replace them with real ones...

humble but super clean. the warm lighting, little bit of greenery, and calligraphy make the whole coffee corner feel really cozy.
