Hi I have an Sage Oracle Touch which has started leaking at the bottom left. After reading and watching videos, I thought it was o-rings from the boiler, but after opening up everything looks fine, except for this hose on the photo. It is sticky and wet on the outside, and I can't see any steam or anything coming

I'm actually considering between Leva X1 and Strada X1. Spiritello does not seem that much value for 60% extra price of Leva X1. Even when your budget is 10000$+, 60% more is a big ask. Leva X1 has been there for long time now and has excellent service from La Marzocco distributor in Taiwan

It seems to me, a PFPE based grease is the best choice material for use on our espresso machines with silicone piston seals. Its operating temperatures far exceed our use, safe with silicone and

How bad is your reservoir? I have an extra one that seeps a little through some cracks and has a dribble through the working filter and valve. The cracks are visible and radiate from the mounting holes for the valve and electrical tab. Perhaps the cracks could be repaired with some sort of coating, but the reservoir does

I used a Ceado E37J for a couple years. The stock 64mm burrs ground a good extraction. Better than the Macap M4 it replaced. SSP HU burrs I tried out didn't work well with it. Didn't fit well and gummed up regularly. The slide grind adjustment was really stiff. I think it had to
