I'm just wondering if you can link to the grind/dose adjustment diagram you have taped up next to your machine -- at least I think that's what it is. I remember seeing it on this forum somewhere and found it very helpful in the beginning when starting out...but I find myself frequently wishing I had it on hand while preparing some shots. I never thought to pin it up next to the machine and I want to try doing it.

Incidentally, I also got a call on April 26 about scheduling a Linea Mini freight delivery as well! I am basically in the exact same position as the OP, though mine probably won't arrive until a day or two later.
Cheers,
Bill

The review by Chris a couple of years ago, the temperature testing by Dan, and the comments from others were extremely helpful to me in making the decision to purchase a Linea Mini. Thanks to all!

Bill,

I also like the shot adjustment charts on this page, created by Dan and posted by Jim:

Welcome to the club!!

Everyone at LM Home, and even LM USA I've talked to has been extremely great! I visited Seattle last month and everyone was super friendly.
