Yes for the mina. If you sign in to the dc club on the website you will find it under the downloads. With the new android app it gives you some new graphics and a live view of the actually flow rate in real time.

Thank you. But I see the DC Club is only for partners. You can actually register as a user?

Thank you. I contacted my Dalla Corte dealer for the update. They responded immediately and a technician will drop by my place soon. The real time flow display would be great. I hope there will be an app update for the iPhone as well.

Here is a screenshot. During extraction the flow slot shows the actual flow. There is an animation on the top graph showing where you are in the extraction. It would be nice to have a graph of the actual flow at some point.

Coming from a La Marzocco, I feel my shots using medium roasts generally have less body on the Mina even though the taste is quite balanced; does anyone know which temperature or flow parameters I could modulate to maximize body and mouthfeel for these types of blends?
Cheers,
Bill

Studio simple flow profiling upgrade, 2 manualy adjustable flows (for preinfusion and decreased one, e.g. for the end of extraction), 1 factory default flow (maximal, 8.7g/s). User programmable time intervals for each flow, any flow combination possible (enough steps available). Water tank operation (i.e. adjustable preinfusion works also for water tank operation).
Note: Posted here just because of asking above, (probably) will make new thread with more details about Studio upgrades in winter. :wink:
