โ - The hot beverage that powers the world!
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.

The problem is always going to be back to back shots. Someone comes in and orders 4 espresso based drinks, sounds like a right pain to me on a Flair, and don't get me started on lunchtime rushes.
Imagine if you combined this with hand grinding in a commercial setting shudders
You'd need a reliable process to manage this that includes a good source of hot water that is low maintenance to feed the flair with. Thermal management is going to be the biggest problem to work around as it will make your drinks bad.
How are you going to handle milk heating and frothing? It's one thing to plan for no milky drinks but another thing entirely when customers start demanding them.
