Quest M3 : Disassembling to swap heating elements
I had already contacted Coffeeshrub - they told me to contact Molly. Still no reply to my mails. Anyone else able to source these elements? This will be my second replacement so I have to imagine others will need them as well

Quest M3 : Disassembling to swap heating elements

Quick look at Breville Dual Boiler Espresso Machine
As for the construction, yes, the lower body is stainless steel 'skin' on a plastic skeleton. I wish they would have opted for a thicker gauge on the drip tray cover as it is thin w/o reinforcement.

Quick look at Breville Dual Boiler Espresso Machine
On a whim, i stopped at Williams & Sonoma on my way home from work. I have been trying to gather info on this machine and while there is plenty out there on the many features and the OPV issue, detailed reviews of what ends up in the cup are few and far between. I won't spend time

Procon Microvane rotary pump?
has anyone used this in an espresso machine? it looks quite a bit smaller (6.5x2.5x1.5) for the pump/motor package vs ~(10.75x6.25x3x3) for the Series1 pump/motor package that is typically used. Here is a link to the product page: {link} {image} it is marketed on their webpage as a pump for espresso...
