First look at Bengle in London
On Saturday 31 October, I brought Decent's new Bengle espresso machine to Scenery London, the coffee roaster and café in Southwark, for its first public showing in London.
Here's what it looked like, in a short video by Jules Gray:

People came to see Bengle up close (I brought the wood panelled version), pulled their own shots, steamed milk, and drank espresso made with Scenery's own coffee. I spent the afternoon answering questions about Bengle, about Decent, and about how I make my own drinks: my choice of profile, roasts and milk drink recipes.
One visitor wrote afterwards on our owners' forum that the machine "was a dream in its operation".
Bengle: ready for espresso in 72 seconds, ready to steam 20 seconds later
