Lelit Bianca Review

Thanks for the review folks! A friend asked about machines and I sent them here. It was great to see / hear you in the video @another_jim ! I was remembering all the shots we drank comparing the Vario to your other grinders. Have a good one!

Replacing a 3 way solenoid valve on Pasquini Livia 90

When will the holiday sponsor program start?
