New here! I've had a my Barista Pro for a few weeks now and more or less had it dialed in, at least for a couple of roasts. Week 4 and I'm now seeing a drop in grind output, irrespective of the type of bean or grind size. 18g going in only gives me ~15g out. I end up having to...
I see discussions on different platforms crop up from time to time where someone adjusted the level of their machine , but what I can imagine is a degree or two at most, and magically their espresso is wonderful and perfect and all channeling problems they once had are resolved....
Just over a year ago I bought used equipment. Rancilio Silvia (2010) model and a Compak K3 Touch Polished. I use Koffee Kult Dark Roast, I like it because I have issues with acidity and tannins. I get extreme heartburn from a lot of...

Thanks
Got the new Linea Mini home just last night after picking it up at Clive Coffee here in Portland. Clive held a nice open house event on Memorial Day where they invited customers down to the store to try out some of the new equipment and check out some of their open box buys....
San Remo seems to have thrown their hat into the ring for the high end single group home machine. The design is very similar to the Cafe Racer. It will be available in 110-120v and 220v with a water tank. It has a manual paddle to pressure/flow profile real time and...
Hello, I hope I am posting this message correctly. I picked up the Faema Eurostar Professional espresso machine $75 and I'm trying to figure it out. I haven't been able to find a manual or even a post discussing this machine outside of this site. Any information is sorely needed...
