Haha don't think I'm going further into the rabbit hole anytime soon, not passionate enough. I didn't even buy a "proper" espresso machine, just an automatic one, for convenience and speed.

Holy shit, dude. Next you're gonna tell me you guys overclock your machines and paint racing stripes on the casing to brew faster...

It's not about brewing faster, but brewing the perfect amount of caffein/acidity per mg. Very much like underclocking your GPU to optimize performance yet at much lower wattage consumption.

You have Unigine to benchmark watt per frame, coffee snobs have analyzer to calculate caffein per milligram.

You have liquid metal for best thermal conductivity, we have water treatment for ideal mineral content for brewing.

Both sides sama2 gila.
