Could the issue with the scale, in my case, be that I have the new Linea Mini R? Other software than the 'older' Linea mini? Something I want to note is that I have 2 LM scales. One I'm using for the 'Brew by Weight and the other one is used with my Pico grinder. I paired the one

Rancilio Silvia Help

Not seeing any pics attached and I personally wouldn't take a machine to any electrician. The electrical side of things is only part of how a machine functions and you should be able to easily/safely diagnose it at home

Weber EG-1 noises on fine grind settings

To be brutally honest you seem far more patient than I would be. The cost and hype surrounding a grinder such as this should give the end user peace of mind that it's functioning 100% as it should be/expected every single use. As with most things in life if something seems off with an item you count on daily and

Differences between Ww core 80mm and Ssp 83mm HU in espresso

Weber EG-1 noises on fine grind settings

Answer to "why I didn't just return it and get a new grinder": I did some troubleshooting with Weber first. After not getting anywhere really I did ask them to send me a shipping slip to return the grinder for a new one or just get my money back. They did not comment on this at all. When I asked

Dull, flat flavour with V60 and 1Zpresso SP6

Thanks, Erik82, but I was referring to possible fine-tunings for the V60 (I probably expressed myself not clearly). After a few years of practice, I know how to dial espresso and move into that realm, but the V60 (having a huge manual part involved in the brewing process) is still very new to me. I guess getting a
