Speaking of #coffee and #espresso history,
This is the FIRST EVER photo of a "chopped" portafilter espresso shot posted online (2004). The first time people saw, visually, how espresso extracted directly out of the bottom of a filter basket.
For context, two baristas from Zoka Coffee in Seattle blogged about drilling the bottom off a PF to see the shot. Alistair Durie (that's him) at Elysian in Vancouver read the post, did it too, invited me down to check it out. I did, and snapped this photo.
