Coffee gadgets - It's always great to learn about new gadgets. Please share your favorite hardware or full setups. It might inspire newcomers to experiment!

Local businesses - Please promote your local businesses. If you are not the owner of the business you are promoting, kindly ask the owner if it's okay. It would be great if the business has a physical store to include an exterior or interior shot.

I mostly do drip coffee (shh, I'm basic), but I'd like a more consistent, fresh brew, and potentially something that could do an espresso grind, as well.

I've seen good things about the Capresso Infinity Plus, but thought I'd ask about the personal preferences from more experienced folks here.

It'd be lovely to have something that can easily fit on the counter, and with a simple mechanism and/or reparability (even if that means looking for old stock of a certain model).

Thanks!

I've been using a Baratza Vario for over a decade and it's great.

On a support note the gear that connects the motor to the belt finally wore out. All the teeth were worn smooth. I ordered a replacement and when it arrived it had a different connection style and wouldn't fit on the motor.

I emailed and asked if they had an old one that would work with my motor. The didn't but sent new a new motor for free. Machine is up and running again like a champ.
