Do you add sugar to your espresso?
I've been making the wife (my version of a) Cortadito the past few days and she's in heaven... basically a latte version of a cuban coffee. A Cuban coffee is usually made with a moka pot-- mix a little of the crema in with a teaspoon or two of sugar into a paste, then add in

Roaster, situation demands I use an extension cord
To be totally honest, and if it's not used all the time, you could also use construction wire (so not cable, as found in an extension cord). The wire is cheaper as it's one piece of copper for each conductor rather than many strands making up a cable, and I'd just go heavier gauge on that. The issue is that

Espresso machine clogging randomly in between shots
Maybe at some point get another of those Chinese/Amazon ones, but though I am not an advocate of abusing the return process, with something like a pf holder where you cannot tell if it works until you have it in hand and have actually tried it, I would say buy from wherever you can return it, just in case.

Preference for Natural, Washed or Honey processed coffee.
Drools a little. A Sumatran longberry peaberry I had a decade ago is still one of my best ever shots. I can still remember the taste. Last week I had a guatamalan peaberry that every shot was thunderous in it's body. I am going to grab another bag of it today

Popular Knock Box?
I've had three knock boxes, I think all were pretty good. A small, square, plastic Cafelat box. My only complaint was that because it was so compact, sometimes not all the grounds made it into the box, and it needed to be frequently emptied and cleaned. The Decent knockbox, which was great for catching stray grounds, and held

Boiler and Coffee Cup Heaters on Monza 5010 not heating
Thanks for your reply. I've since found that the fundamental problem is the pump. I thought it was pumping, but it's just vibrating. I pulled it apart, all appeared OK, reassembled it and it worked. Then left it off for 30 minutes, turned it on again, and thereafter it wouldn't pump. So it seems the pump will need to be
