Decent Espresso & Aillio Bullet Coffee Adventures

This is a warts-and-all video blog centred around my use and love of the Decent DE-1 Espresso machine and the Aillio Bullet R1v2 coffee roaster. 

Each of these devices offer a variety of parameters that can be varied and tweaked to result in a vast variety of roasts and shots... *theoretically*!  One of the things that intrigues me about being in the Decent espresso and roasting forums and groups, is the level of "small world snobbishness" and "pretentious elitism".  The same high brow wank that happens in the coffee world, happens in many "specialist" worlds,  like those of wine connoisseurs, whiskey aficionados, art collectors etc... 

Having said that, I subscribe to and love Scott Rao, James Hoffman, Lance Hendrick, Decent Espresso, and many other experts in their  fields of roasting, pulling shots etc. My respect to them, they know a lot more than I do... and this blog is not that, it's a more down-to-earth one to play and have fun with these gorgeous fruit seeds!
