Post a pic of your home espresso setup...
So my old Fiorenzato Bricoletta finally threw in the tovel, so it was time for a new machine. The price, and functions of the Expobar Brewtus IV really got my attention.

Bricoletta and Microfoam
I think I had decent skill in frothing milk. I do confess that not every can becomes acceptable microfoam, but most of them. That was until I changed to the Bricoletta. I have read some posts about people in here with the same problem, and in some answers changing the tip of the steam pipe seems to ...

Strange changes in extraction timing
I usually tap the grinder properly when finishing the grinding, but since this was done in the morning my mind might have been in some other place. Just finished a double and it seems to work as usual. Very strange behavior but atm my money is in the humidity. Thanx again!

Strange changes in extraction timing
No I am not weighing the dose, so that sure can vary up and down a bit. The change of humidity, and the explanation on the grinder (I have a Rocky), sounds logical. Spring here in Sweden sure has raised the humidity inside the house, compared to just a week ago. Thanks for your input!

Strange changes in extraction timing
Yesterday morning i did my "regular" latte. The extraction was really good, approx. 20-25 sec. When I got home later that afternoon I turned the machine on (Fiorenzato Bricoletta E61), waited for 30-40 minutes and prepared for extracting my afternoon espresso. The coffee in the grinder was the same ...

Fiorenzato Bricoletta in action
Thanx m8, Yes the water is plumbed in, not the drainage though. Having some difficulties finding the right parts. Only place that I can connect it to is to the dish washer drainage and that pipe is quite small. Everything is prepared though so just need to find the pipes

Fiorenzato Bricoletta in action
More then a week of constant heat and the espressos is starting to look good. I must admit that moving to a semi pro. machine with E61 was a bigger, and harder step then I could imagine, but I also realize that this is what you need to become a real home barista Recently switched coffee

Used Fiorenzato Bricoletta loses pressure?
It took longer then expected getting the p-stat from Italy', but now I finally got it replaced (real easy procedure by the way). Well we replaced it and fired up the machine at the service shop. Everything worked fine, and we pulled a couple of shots before packing it up. When I got home i plumbed i...
