Wacaco has announced a new product in line with the minpresso and nanopresso. This one is called the Picopresso . The previous model seems more akin to toys with mini plastic baskets and tampers plus pressurized baskets and promoting pods. This one seems a bit more serious the...
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...
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....

In the last few days I haven't been able to get foam right: too frothy! I bought a new carton of milk to see if something had gone astray in the existing carton. No change.
This is on an Andreja Premium, which I've had for seven years, and for the last five, have been turning...
