The lights add better flavor to the cup :wink:

The red PID light is one of my two qualms with the machine. The other being the 2B badge is a sticker. Hopefully it holds up, but I feel it is a matter of when not if it will eventually start to pill off. If that happens I'll look into getting a proper badge made to match the quick mill one or do something similar to the UK version of the machine.

Thanks Damon. I've not had my hands on a lot of PF handles, but the Rancillo really did a good job on this PF. Although my main reason for using it is it's my only bottomless PF.

pShoe - after reading the info you provided I expanded my budget and added my name to the waitlist for the 2B and just got my notice from Chris' that they are stocked again - how are you getting along with yours so far? Any concerns I should ask about when I call to order?
