1st shot with rebuilt Bunn ES-1A
« on: January 17, 2009, 03:45:09 PM »
OK, OK, it's a crappy shot, but it's the first pulled after the rebuild.

Now I can finish polishing it & put the bottom, sides, & top on. I'm waiting for my filtration kit to arrive. I was going to assemble the parts but figured that was more trouble than it's worth.

Then all I'll have left to do is dial in the group temp, boiler temp, grinder, and hook up the permanent water & waste line.

You are brave to post that vid.  ;)

Post the "after" once you get everything dialed in, that looks to be a tank like machine.

I knew a coffee shop owner that would have called that a "double" shot! ;D

Nice job Tex...

Gulp... actually I did, and it was better than what I had in a local coffee house last week. That's not to say it was worth drinking, just that there's a coffee house in Houston that ought to be ashamed of themselves!

I'd been drinking vac pot coffee all day and I just couldn't resist.

Why would you do that to yourself? As for the coffee shop, I just can't imagine how they could have made that shot any worse???

Yeah ... well ... they're laughing all the way to the bank.  Not every customer who partakes of their sludge can distinguish a good coffee from a bad one.

Blahahah!

They build some foam at the Black Walnut that looks freaktasticly humongous...like a renegade meringue pie jumped into the latte bowl.  ;D

I've never tasted it but it looks so funny all magnanimous and proud.

Wonder if they could hang a 1st place ribbon around the peak of Mt. Milkfluff then serve it to Black Walnut customers. I'd like to get that on my blog. ;-)
