+1 on the oily beans. Luckily I actually like a medium-roast espresso so I don't feel the loss from missing out on the really dark roasts. One of the bigger commercial roasters in NM has a pretty tasty Guatamala that's easily available at our local Kroger.
One of these days I'm going to hack an auto-filler into ours - the reservior is smaller than it seems, and this J80 isn't even the "little" Jura. I feed it RO water as our tap water up here on this volcano is thick with silicates that nothing will cut short of HF acid.
You'd think that once you get in the kilobuck+ range that there would be a hard-plumbed capability. You can certainly get that sort of thing in the fancier semi-autos. Should be easy to build something with a wee arduino, a relay, a solenoid valve and some sensors. Heck, maybe that's my ticket - sell enough of them and I could one day be a hundred-aire! Or be on the hook for water damage claims (I am metallurgist, not plumber).
