Last weeks thread here

Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

Sorry, damn work keeps on getting in the way of social media. Yeah that price isn’t amazing for the bambino; checked priceme and it definitely goes on sale with steeper discounts. Could always check again for Matariki at the end of June.

The barista express is the same machine as the bambino but includes a grinder. I think you said you already have a grinder?

Yeah, it's not a great grinder, but I do have one. I think my eyes are also a big bigger than my bench space, I got a bit carried away. The Bambino is probably a much better size. Also when it comes down to it, I don't think I'm willing to spend $700.

I think I'll just keep watching The Bambino until it has a deeper sale. It's not like I'm in a rush because I desperately need an espresso machine 😆
