Update: Espresso Maker
I am going to take this thing apart and fix it if it’s the last thing I do…
IT'S ESPRESSO!
I have a bit of a problem. Well I have two problems. I have what people might consider an addiction to espresso coffee (first problem). There are few things I find better on this planet.
