I grind 16g at their recomended speed of 75. It takes around a minute. I would guess 60-80g would take four or more minutes. The feeder didn't struggle for my 16g, just slow and steady

I think manufacturers use a crimp tool to push the metal part inside the tube. something like this but in reverse: {link} Definitely, this is not the right size. One side should go behind the ring and the other side to push the insert. heating the tube and ring with steam may help the tube to be

I'm not a fan of the "local roasters" metric since it obviously depends on where you live and also the goalposts of what you consider really good coffee, roast level and flavor profile, etc. I have a couple roasters in my area that roast good coffee. I also have a local one that isn't bad but gets the same mediumish

What's the "Dose Finisher"? How often does it need to be used? Is it used to minimize retention, or only when cleaning the grinder? Thank you so much for the detailed review!

The safety release would have been the reason for the delay. I got one of the 1st ones back in Jan/Feb I think it was, and was not happy with all aspects of it...I know they have worked on the issues and resolved them relatively recently. I did advise them strongly, not to send any machines out with a safety

What machine is it? Hello everyone, I am writing to you from Lima, Perú. Last year I studied barista at an Hello everyone, I am writing to you from Lima, Peru. Last year I studied barista at an institute. Let's say that I still have very little experience in the coffee industry, I come to ask you a question

I ordered in late October with the safety release. When I was asked for the second half of the payment, it was "Early February" shipping. On March first, I asked for an update and got "next week". In the silver lining department, I'm having to severely limit my coffee intake for health reasons, so it's not much of a burden

Had the issue of the fill pump never stopping when not pulling a shot today. I know this topic was brought up [here]("Breville Dual Boiler pump keeps running after ending shot"). I believe for me that it was a case of a pocket of air stuck at the pump since it was not pulling any water either. I had

It sounds like you're referring to the estimate at the top of the screen? Artisan will try to approximate at what time you will reach the milestone based on the current rate. If it thinks you'll reach dry end at 300°F (I think it automatically adjusts this expected temp based on your previous roasts) and your rate or rise is

I think that's all fair to hear, thank you. It's clear that I'm naive to how to build machines. I largely want to be able to say that I know HOW to fill the boiler and confidently know when I'll need to turn it off and depressurize the boiler to add water moving forward. Yes, there are
