Love it. There’s a surprising amount of hackability in espresso machines — reminds me a lot of bicycles as an approachably fun tinkering project.

Do you know of any resources to help learn bicycles? I wish I could tune my own bicycle but can't seem to figure it out. I can build my own computer, change the oil in my car, paint a house, etc. but my bicycle always befuddles me.

Another vote for Sheldon Brown, but I'd also recommend searching on YouTube for how to do various maintenance jobs. Once you've watched a few videos, you'll soon learn the terminology for the various parts.
