Cold Brew Goes Nitro

No, this is not a stout. This is a fresh Stumptown Cold Brew Nitro.

We are on it as well, of course. :-)
But What Stumptown does now looks fantastic.

Click here for their website and the funny clip to launch their Nitro cans.

And here for the story.

Soon, i hope to test it myself. Curious.

2 years La Marzocco Linea PB


Not exactly 2 years, but we are not so far off.

We can say after 2 years it's the most rock solid and precise espresso machine we ever had.

General settings :
1 second pre infusion
2 seconds hold
260 units water (for a double shot - naked porta filter)
91 degrees PID

In 2 years we installed the same machine at Beanoteca, Livingstone, The Village, Fanny's en De Superette. And everybody happy so far.
Maybe it's lacking the possibilities of the Strada, but with 8 different Barista's rocking 'the boat', i prefer this one for sure.

What did we change?
We have a GS3 steam tip on the left.
A triple Vortex knife tip on the right.
The newest LM shower screens.

and now we want the new soft ware on it (easier to copy recipes).

Thanks Piero Bambi.
