Damn, nice setup and back splash.

I have a handful of questions if you don't mind:

1. Which cups are you using?
2. Is that a 27" deep counter?
3. If so, do you find that it's enough workspace for the GS3?
4. Where are the electrical cables going? I can't see if you've drilled a hole and routed them to an outlet underneath or not.
5. Is that a plumbed in GS3 or pourover?
6. If plumbed in, did you do it yourself?

Two things I am looking to achieve/confirm:
1. I'm looking to plumb in my Rocket at my new place, but on the fence if it's worth all the (unnecessary) work or not, hence the questions. I mostly pull about 2 shots a day (morning and afternoon) and that's it.
2. To get a GS3 or LM Mini, or not. I don't need to. But rather, I want to. Something to think of down the road.

While it may not seem obvious, E61-based machines are notorious for water waste, so I have to refill regularly especially after drawing a bunch of cooling shots to stabilize the grouphead. I haven't come across anyone who has plumbed their Rocket in, both to draw in water, and to dispose of the wasted water through proper plumbing.

Add insult to injury, the plumbing kit that comes with the Rocket is shipped with European fittings, so I'd need to buy a North American kit.
