ode to the triple ristretto

yes, brian of espresso parts' portafilter fits great on both silvia and carlos expobar. yes, the coffee's fantastic.

i spent the morning luxuriating in rich, soft drinks made with fresh batdorf dancing goat (thanks, jessica!) from this new custom portafilter. it's just a thing of beauty, as you can see.

those of you with e61 or thermosyphon groupheads can use the triple basket; you just need the custom portafilter. (i mean you, marshall fuss!) brian at espresso parts can easily make one up for ya in just a couple of days.

and no, it's not expensive. it's just exciting: mr. right reports the coffee seems more like what we were drinking in italy!

on the yoga front, i'm the eternal optimist, and so i'm going to go try another lead ashtanga class, taught by one carl s. at yoga people. he's said to be a good teacher, willing to modify the poses.

and most importantly, it's reported that he has a sense of humor. will report back later today.
