Does anyone know how to set the Synchronika up to head both boilers simultaneously instead of sequentially? Is it a PID controller configuration or a jumper wire that is needed to turn it on?
In the ECM manual it states only a special dealer can set that up for us, but I would...
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...
I just received my Bianca V3 and I'm still learning to use it (the instructions manual isn't great to say the least). After watching some youtube clips I managed to create an electronic profile which makes sense to me and delivers pretty good results: 3 second low pressure...

Then, I was surprised to view the Unica Coffee GmbH model called the Unica Pro...
When I'm pulling a shot with my Lelit Anna, what I'm experiencing is the pressure shoots first to 10 bars, then drops to 9 but mostly sits near 8 bars...
What I'm wondering is if this is normal, am I doing something wrong in the prep?
The LM's pre-infusion will require a line pressure to be delivered with the water plumbing-in. Otherwise, there is no water out of the brew group during the pre-infusion stage (e.g. plumb-in directly from the bottled water without external pump).
