Interested in espresso lever machines ? I was honoured to be appointed directly by Alf Kramer to hold a workshop about lever machines next 21st June in Copenhagen. It would be of great help for me knowing what baristas from all over the world would like to learn about lever machines. I am sure that everyone is somehow fascinated by them but don't know exactly how to operate them.... please let me have Your questions through baristaexchange. Thank You .
