Status Details

  • The coffee machine appears to work but has some flaws
    • pressure appears inadequate - maybe descaling will help
    • the lid where water goes in has no handle
    • we don't have a tamper for pushing the coffee in right

Using the coffee machine

  • You need fine ground espresso coffee.
  • There are loads of coffee nerd sites. Read one of those about how to use a proper espresso machine.
  • Remember to clean up afterwards.
  • Remember to give offerings to the caffine Cthulhu otherwise he will decaffinate (or recaffinate depending on what you don't want) all your coffee.
