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 was fascinated with the dimensions of the new 'La marzocco linea micra' I read on the forum.
It would seem a perfect new addition to my small kitchen.if it would ever be offered outside of Europe.
Then, I was surprised to view the Unica Coffee GmbH model called the Unica Pro...
I just got the machine (Profitec GO) a few days ago and I'm loving it so far! I have a few things, im not sure if they are right or maybe im just using it wrong.
What happened was that sometimes (once every 5-6 shots, with steaming) the time to first drop of espresso...
latest edit, 8 May 2022: I added a second paragraph to item 6 under the maintenance section. It is an ifixit guide to removing the group and the steam boiler. This has application if you have an older BDB and want to upgrade to the latest group with the two-piece collar inserts...

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).
Now I'm the happy owner of a sage smart pro grinder (second hand), a DeLonghi Caffé Treviso (second hand) and a Bialetti 6 cup (new).
I was wondering what people with more experience in making coffee and espresso think of this set-up. I have...
Today I noticed that there is no steam pressure (worked fine until yesterday).
The machine is 2 years old.
I removed the left panel and found out that the steam boiler is warm (but not very hot), the pressure reading at the gauge is about 0.25 , no steam and no hot water....
Looks like Lelit is introducing an HX that addresses the usability of HX machines in the area of brew water temperature control. However I only see a low, med, high setting which would mean nothing to me. I couldn't understand how their control system works.
