Buying Group Gasket Kit NY
I couldn't tell from your post whether you were looking for gaskets for a Cafelat Robot or another machine (like an E61).

Roastpic App for color
It looks interesting in terms o the tech. But sadly, the free version strikes me as crippleware that doesn't really do anything except highlight obvious defects. $19 a month for the unprofessional version comes to more in a year than the basic colormeters, and more in two than some of the best ones. So who would buy it?

Decent Espresso news
Identical thermal accuracy. As far as repeatability goes: the more and faster you make shots on the DE1, the more accurate the temperature gets.

Breville Dual Boiler 920 little flow through group head
welp I just solved this. I took off the brand new solenoid once again to really check what's going on here and there was a small fragment of an old o-ring that was literally clogging the valve to the brew head. Made sure that it wasn't any of the current o-rings and didn't find any leaks or hissing from other

New Mazzer grinder announcement - Mazzer Philos
No idea, it's coming straight from them anyway. I originally asked AlternativeBrewing and they said they'd be selling it at the end of the year, so maybe?

1 hole versus 3/4 hole steam wand?
I got very good with the BBE when I had it. I still enjoy using it at my Mom's house. It takes forever but can make really good microfoam. Silky, glassy on the top, and very good texture. The key is needing to stretch for longer than it seems you'd need. I'd then get the

I ordered some coffee to sample (3 different beans) from West End Coffee Roasters - not expecting any real fruit-forward coffees but people seem to
