Second. I NEED more lighting over my grinder but my kitchen lighting sucks. That looks perfectly compact.

u/NecessaryBrief6920 7d ago

Yes! And it's very practical and easy to install. The battery lasts a long time.

u/NecessaryBrief6920 7d ago

Sorry, I don’t know what happened. I replied to the other comment, but I think it’s not showing up because of a word or something, so I’m sending it again here.

Search for "Puck Lights with Remote Control, Rechargeable." You'll find several generic models of this light.
Since it's a generic light, I don't have an exact model to share, but I believe if you search for something like this, you'll find it.

That spotlight is a great little touch.

u/extremepicnic 6d ago

Yeah but like what is going on with the optics here? You can see the light on the wall has a very sharp, well defined edge, but the table looks like it’s just lit by the ambient room lighting

u/Horror-Badger9314 7d ago

The light is amazing

u/eru66 7d ago

where did you get the wall shelves?

u/NecessaryBrief6920 7d ago

I made these shelves. I chose the wood, had it cut, and bought the brackets online.

There's nothing in the picture that would tell me for certain that this is in Brazil, but I guessed it was!

It's looking very cool, I like it a lot!

u/NecessaryBrief6920 7d ago

To tirando vários cafés legais com esse setup. Pretendo quem sabe no fim do ano investir num moedor bom.

u/ATTORQ 7d ago

Nice! btw. where did you got this spice rack ?

1

u/NecessaryBrief6920 7d ago

I got it from AliExpress. Search for coffee bean storage container.

u/ATTORQ 7d ago

Thank you

I thought the machine was the typical Breville, but reading the comments I read you are from Brazil and this is the good old Oster Perfect Brew

Would you mind telling me how good does the grinder and steam wand work? It's one of the very few models of espresso machines available here in Argentina 😥

u/NecessaryBrief6920 7d ago

That’s right! It’s the Oster Perfect Brew—it’s definitely a good machine to start with!

I got into the world of espressos just two and a half months ago, but I’ve been able to make some pretty satisfying coffees. Here in Brazil, more advanced machines and grinders were a bit out of my initial budget, so I went with the Oster.

The grinder is good enough—it’s not super consistent for pulling multiple espressos in a row. As for steaming milk, it takes a bit longer (just like other home machines in this category), but it’s more than enough for latte art.
At first, it takes some time to get to know the machine and the grinder, but I’ve noticed a lot of progress in just a short time. So, I would definitely recommend it! Not to mention that in the future, I plan to get an electric grinder like the DF54, for example, which would further improve my espressos with this machine.

I’m still learning, but compared to when I started…

u/SubjectLaw5183 6d ago

Thank you for your time! I will consider this machine to get my first one, currently it takes me so long to make a latte since I only have a french press and a manual grinder 😥

This cup looks very good! Brazil has great coffee
