Afternoon everyone - so I’ve spent the past two hours giving my whole setup a much needed deep clean, descale & restock. Perfect timing for a new bag of beans to arrive from my local roaster. I’ve had my Sage Barista Express around two years now and after much trial and error I feel things are where I want them to be with my espresso extraction. The dream, one day, is to get myself a La Marzocco however that’s some time away and I’ll enjoy using my Sage in the meantime. To assist with my home setup I use a Motta 53mm leveller/distributor, Motta 53mm tamper, Acaia Lunar scales (only had these since Apr 19 and wow these are amazing) and my primary bean of choice is the 200 Degrees Brazilian Love Affair. Hopefully the photograph is showing okay.

As my lovely wife's facilitated my coffee habit from a Sage barista express and smart grinder to an L1-P/R120 setup and not once as much as sighed (well, appart from the one 'bobbit' comment) I figured it only fair I offer up some of the non-essential gear to the gods of happy wives, so I can put it towards something she'll like that's not a milk based drink So on the sacrificial altar... My Acaia Lunar and Pearl scales (black) - £260 inc special delivery (think Christmas). Both are under 6 months old with the Pearls almost new (I wasn#t happy with the second hand white ones I had so got a spanking new black set) and as such in excellent condition. If you're able to collect obviously I'll reduce that by the postage too. Any inspection also welcome.
