We’re moving to Denmark from the US soon, and are going to be (of course) selling our 120V setup and buying a whole new one. It’s pretty exciting to be able to re-shop for things.

We currently have a Profitec GO and a Eureka Mignon Silencio grinder. I’d say my big want that we don’t have is having warm water from the espresso machine easier to dispense (without small grounds in it) to pre warm cups, to make Americanos.

Either way, if you had the opportunity to do it all over again, would you change anything?

    Sounds like you have a decent setup. If I were really attached to it then I might consider getting a voltage transformer. Otherwise it sounds like you’re leaning towards a dual boiler which can get up there in price. What’s your budget for a new setup?

      No clue on budget yet :) it’s not clear to us how much the move will cost in general

      I had considered voltage transformer (or swapping all the 120 internals for 240) but the cost of shipping the unit alone is just prohibitive for us. So new it is!

    I moved from Sweden to Korea and left my Rocket Appartamento and Eureka Mignon Specialita at a friends attic: https://tube.jeena.net/w/aUSfL2W3eMzZWS7D9ZtTs6

    I miss it so much, but it’s not clear if I will ever move back or not and it can’t stay at their attic forever. So if you’re still looking for something perhaps you want to buy it. The grinder is only 6 month in use and the machine I bought of a friend who took very good care of it it was a couple of years old like 3 or so and then I had it for 6 months before I moved.

    It was supposed to be just a 3 month business trip but then I met someone here and now we’re married and have a two years old :D. I think it’s to expensive to ship it to Korea.

    But you could take a trip to Varberg, it’s not super far from Denmark to get it. I would appreciate if someone who is into espresso would use it instead of it just staying at the attic.
