La Marzocco Linea Micra owner reviews

Thanks for confirming PaulTheRoaster for the steam boiler control. Wow that Micra looks so tiny beside your grinders...! Almost like a miniature!

La Marzocco Linea Micra owner reviews

Quick question for an actual owner: Is there a way to turn on/off the steam boiler directly on on the machine? Or is the only way through the app? I was wondering if the red and blue lights beside the paddle could actually be buttons, but I believe it is not the case. Thanks in advance!

Ordering Cafelat silicone seals from Canada

Just to let you know if this may help, I live in Montreal and I recently ordered the new blue seals from Bluestarcoffee.eu. 5.50 Euros per seal + 7 euros to ship in Canada = 23.50 Euros for a set of three. They shipped from Ireland and I received them in less than 3 weeks. BTW, I was experiencing le...

Compatible bottomless portafilter for Bosco group

For me I did not want the Cafelat pf because a HB member confirmed to me it would not fit the fork of my Eureka Atom properly. The more regular naked pf design fits good

Compatible bottomless portafilter for Bosco group

Here's the update: the Bezzera (non-Strega) portafilter is a perfect match for the "Bosco" group. No mod needed, locks in at 6 o'clock, exactly as with the OEM portafilters. Hope this can help other people with a Bosco group looking for a naked pf!

Review of the Eureka Mignon Especialita

Yes I have seen that too. I am waiting for it to become a little more available with more reviews to determine if it's worth it for me or not. I like that it would reduce/eliminate retention, and the stock hopper on the Atom is not the best I have seen when it's almost empty given the sides are not

Review of the Eureka Mignon Especialita

Maybe I am not respectful owner for my Atom but I did not bother opening it yet for a thorough cleaning. OTOH, I never use oily beans, so I am not sure this is really needed anyways. It just works great

Review of the Eureka Mignon Especialita

Very interesting. I have had the Atom for more than a year now and have been enjoying it every day. It seems to share a lot with the new Mignon Especialita (silent, adjustment system, electronic timer...) and make these impressive feature now available at a lower price point. If I did not have the A...

Eureka Atom - does it require half full hopper?

As another member has mentioned I believe, as long as the bean level is up to the fingerguard, popcorning and beans not sliding correctly to the burrs is not an issue
