Ponte Vecchio Lusso steam wand open but wimpy
Anyone know why my steam wand has suddenly lost it's giddy-up? The Lusso is still holding proper pressure during steaming, and all three holes are patent, but it is barely steaming. I can hold my hand under it. Have switched to iced lattes as to not get too pissed off waiting for 2 minutes for 160 d...

Initial Impressions of the Ponte Vecchio Lusso
We are trying to reassemble, anyone remember the correct order of the bevels on the three gaskets? If we could do bevel up on the bottom two it sure would be a lot easier, and we know it matters. Thanks Carrie

Another Ponte Vecchio Export Applies to the LMWDP
Holy Moly Dogshot, nice art. Funny, I drooled over a Brewtus II for a while before ordering my Lusso. Maybe I'll have a cottage to buy the Brewtus for someday. I did, BTW, have to oil my lever within the first month. Just place a drip on the top and let it run into the hinge. I

Pavoni newbie: blends to start with....
Hey, Hood River is closer that Portland, and one of our local great coffee shops uses Doma out of Coeur d'Alene. I've had their Vito's. Not too bad. But Dog River, also here in Hood River features Stumptown, and I use the Stumptown Hairbender in my Ponte Vecchio. I tried Intelli's Black Cat and real...

LMWDP Rollcall
I cant believe I am just learning about the plot. Visiting HB is a nightly treat that I give to myself almost every night as my husband heckles and rolls his eyes. Need I mention that he is a soda guy, poor thing, but has been intrigued since the Lusso arrived. When I bought my
