30 vs 44lbs of tamping pressure - does it matter?
I've never been able to measure tamping pressure. I think its different throughout different beans density and its grind size. Just what I feel, and never been tested

Is Mahlkonig EK43 worth it for home use?
I am happy with it for my home use. I typically brew/pull 50-60 cups a week and know its worth the money for me. Some may say there are better machines out there for the money and etc, but I am bias because I've always liked mahlkonig and it does exceptional job

Mahlkonig EK43s worth it?
I made the transition over to EK43s from my K30 air and could not be happier. It is definitely true that pulling consistent syrupy espresso shots are bit more finicky, but the ability to handle pour over grind on the fly has been awesome for me

Surge of Rocket equipment returns?
Maybe you are right. Maybe it was not the brand, but the fact that it was an entry level machine that I wasn't happy with. It also seems that people like me gravitate towards their machines and have similar thoughts as I do. Maybe its a coincidence, maybe not

Next progression in espresso machine
Thanks everyone for all your input! I am def a gearhead, but that isn't the only reason. Every week, I pick out new coffee from different region with variety of roasting profiles. Having a simple 9 bars of pressure from start to finish isn't the best approach (at least in my own little world). Call me

Next progression in espresso machine
Hi, I've had my profitec pro700 for about 2 years now. Learned a lot about coffee and enjoyed the learning curve of being a home barista. Pro700 has been great, but I feel like I've exhausted all futures that the machine can offer. Which machine should be the next step in my home barista career?
