Pulled a ~ 600 € DeLonghi coffee maker out of the dumpster and invested about 50 € in spare parts (water tank, grounds container, and a new magnet valve). Seems like I have a new coffee machine now 😁☕

(It would have gone even faster and without a puddle on the kitchen counter if I had put in the gaskets from the start. 🤦 Ah well.)

    What do you do for a living and how do you know how to fix coffee makers?

      @workerONE Officially, I’m a computer scientist 😉 But over the years, I’ve fiddled around with enough electronics and mechanical engineering as well that I’m overall pretty good at fixing stuff 🤷

        Just remember, if she doesn’t find you handsome at least she finds you handy.

          I thought it was twosome, threesome, foursome, and handsome.
