Thanks I guess it's about time I change them.... I have nothing to loose except about 40 bucks

I have a M4 grinder that I bought new 6 years ago and probably have about somewhere in the neighborhood of 300 lbs of coffee run through it ground fine for espresso. Two days ago while grinding my afternoon shot I heard the dreaded sound of a rock starting to wedge in the burrs. I quickly turned her...

Thanks Dan...wasn't sure if if it could withstand the heat. I have it up and running now with no leaks

Just replaced my vacuum breaker on Anita and it's leaking from where the valve screws into the boiler. Can I use teflon tape to try to get a good seal? I tightened it down as much as I feel I should go. Any suggestions?

I don't have a thermofilter but I get the same tighter temp swing using the flush n go tech and my shots have always tasted better this way than with the flush and wait tech and I'd think it has to be from a more flat profile. The higher the idle temp when I start flushing, the more

The blind basket used for back flushing is great for cleaning off the screen just don't flush too much or it will drastically drop your temp and you will have to wait longer to get the machine up to temp for the next shot. Flushing amount for a warmed up machine (GH 212-214F) will be MUCH longer than

I'll do a quick flush with the blind basket, just enough to get the gunk off the screen, then I try to wait about 3 min's before I start grinding for the next shot. If not the temp seems to plummet very fast around the middle to end of the shot and this can be seen easily if you

That's the one I was looking for Jeff thanks! Now that I take another look at it I don't know if I like the pattern.... the old style like Dan posted looks more uniform. I may try it anyway

Need to replace the shower screen on my Anita and seem to remember a replacement screen that seem to work better than the original. I can't find it anywhere.........anyone remember??

After descaling my boiler a few weeks ago, I ran distilled water into the boiler and after 1 week I was flushing it out to replace it and it had a brown muddy look to it. Is this normal? I"ve never seen this before and can"t remember reading a post where this was happening.... thanks
