Thanks guys! Pretty sure Spoo and I had similar reactions today.

so the big question is, keep or sell? If you keep, man you must love some ******* espresso.

I think @Orgetorix found an awesome old machine a few years ago that he rehabbed but I don't think it was quite this fancy.

Rose & Born. Looks like a nice piece. Surgeon cuffs, pick stitching, super 100, made in Italy (by who?)

Def a keeper. I've wanted one of these machines forever. I do fuckin love espresso.

I remember his machine. It was our talk in a PM that encouraged him to start the rehab.

As a serious espresso lover I'm very jealous of the machine
