ACS Vostok 1 group wear

Some levers have a rubber stop at the end of the travel. But I don't think a little wear at that spot can be avoided. The LSM group that I used over a 10 year time period still looked brand new besides those little spots

Olympia Cremina 2019 - Steam wand rotates and sputters at fastening nut

If the tip can be taken off putting two or three rivets on the tapered part might be a solution.Have to be the exact diameter so they keep in place above the tapered part

Olympia Cremina 2019 - Steam wand rotates and sputters at fastening nut

You could try and put some tape at the the edge where the arm thickens(arrow). Maybe that way the nut is able to tighten the rod more. A mm thick layer. {image} Like this. {image} {image}

New review of Nurri L-Type Leva by Lance Hedrick

I'm not talking about efficiency. Also the Nurri costs 5000 dollars plus. Who wants to do 9 bar shots with a lever anyways.Besides a Strega can do that too so nothing special Temperature control exists in abundance on any decent machine. Declining temperature is one aspect that makes a lever special...
