Our espresso machine is back!

After a few months in disrepair, it has returned from factory servicing and is as good as new.

Our espresso machine is currently out of service,
and we are trying to arrange for a factory repair.

Update: espresso is back! 🤩.but the fridge is broken now. :(

Want milk?

We'd like to offer lattes, cappuccinos, and other milk-based drinks...but we need a few more volunteers to come by once a week to clean the milk system (as it should really be cleaned daily). Would you be willing to help, just 5 minutes each week?

Chai tea is back! Just add hot water or milk from the espresso machine.

Today we added dairy alternatives! Just plug-in the milk tube number you prefer, place a mug under the milk spout, and tap the "Latte" or "Cappuccino" button. We are starting with almond and coconut milk, and have some h**p milk to try next. Let us know what you like best, or bring your favorite to share!

We installed a new milk fridge today...so we can again serve cappuccinos and lattes! Cash donations will be used to help buy milk (as well as sauces and syrups).

Our espresso machine is back from factory refurbishing, and ready to help you welcome our neighbors!

(Hopefully we're able to setup our new milk fridge in the next week or so...stay tuned!)

After 5 years and more than 39,000 cups served, our espresso machine is starting to fail. We're planning to send it out for complete refurbishment sometime in the coming weeks.

(You might see it occasionally throw an 'error 8', which indicates a failure to initiate its brewing module; turning it off and then on again has always cleared this up so far.)

This is why the it's so important for people to connect to each other. Would you like to help by becoming a host at our espresso stand?
