I really need to bring my home espresso machine home. Got a gaggia for Christmas so I can practice for the Barista competitions. As a pro barista myself, I gotta say that I have nothing but respect for all the people who do it at home. Up at the shop I have everything I need to do all the latte art and tinkering that I want. You guys have to do it the hard way. We had a barista jam back in December and I saw what the home guys can do. . . just nuts! Oh, congrats on all the cool machines guys! I really liked the Silvia/Rocky setup that I played with, haven't tried the Pulsar yet I'll have to do that soon.
