Well that's the prob. Clive is suggesting that it's an involved process. I'd rather do it myself but removing the boiler? I dunno. I'd hate to make a mess and then have to ship it back anyway. Maybe I'll ask them to send gauge, I'll dissemble and make a call at that time

My Lucca steam gauge gas developed condensation. Clive advises returning the unit for warranty repair. Can anyone comment on the feasibility of DIY gauge replacement on this unit? I'm no surgeon but I can tinker a bit. Shipping this beast and having it out of commish is a drag

Wow, the K30 is schweet. Easy to adjust. A step forward

The challenge to me is making it consistently palatable. I hope the data points just get me ballparked sooner. They are in and of themselves no guarantee of maximum "good" flavor. It's kind of fun to track the variables in a geeky way

Totally concur! While my initial approach sounds very left brain, the object is to consistently make good stuff ASAP and enjoy that Savory Beverage Experience. I will stop crunching numbers as soon as possible. My wife, being an engineer, will prob dig the spreadsheet, though. I appreciate your voic...

I dove into the hobby a couple weeks ago when the Quickmill Lucca M58 arrived. Currently grinding with a freshly-burred Rocky; K30 Vario on the way.

Why is this the case?

Awaiting shipment. Looking forward to applying some of the theory I have been digesting over the last few months. Thanks for the reportage on the M58

Lucca and the 700 close to a dead heat price wise. Tough call

I'd like to see the Lucca M58 and the Profitec toe to toe. Profitec seems great on paper but numerous posts refer to DOA units. Wonder if a cause was eliminated? Some Lucca reviews may be helpful
