A Damn Fine Machine for a Damn Fine Cafe

Donation protected
✨ This is the dream machine. ✨

David Lynch’s personal espresso setup—a La Marzocco GS3 and Mazzer Mini grinder—is up for auction.
And we think it belongs with us.

Because Kaffeeklatsch is a Lynchian haven.
It’s where big feelings meet tiny cups of perfectly pulled espresso.

So we’re launching this fundraiser to bring home a surreal piece of cinematic-coffee history. Not for the hype—but because this machine would truly feel at home with us: the dreamers building something beautiful and strange in Calgary.

We already use a GS3 at Kaffeeklatsch—but this one is cinematic history. It deserves to keep brewing in a space that gets it.

The auction is already climbing—bidding is at $7,000 USD. With auction fees, shipping, duties, and platform costs, we’re aiming to raise: $13,000 CAD

If we get outbid, all funds will go toward the bigger dream: rebuilding Kaffeeklatsch as a permanent storefront cafe.
This dream doesn’t end with the machine—it just takes another shape.

Help us make this weird little dream real.
Stay caffeinated. Stay strange.
