Weber EG-1 noises on fine grind settings
You clearly have no experience with those grinder as what you're writing is completely wrong. I'd also expect planes worth 100 millions of dollar to not loose a door midflight or have any kind of problems even with the most strict QC on the world and it happens. Loads of different examples to be obtained. Maybe do a reality

Rok Grinder bevel failure
I installed the upgrade kit last weekend... hrmph, at £29 it's disappointing but ok. If I'd bought it at the RRP of £40 I'd be requesting a refund, the quality just isn't there. My reason for upgrading was the difficulty in adjusting the grind size, and I quite fancied having a dial with some sort of indicator. Unfortunately the

Show me a machine for which the MFG. doesn't recommend periodic maint. Show me a machine that the required periodic maint. costs less than $10.00 US and takes less than an hour with basic hand tools(and a hemostat). Show me a machine that is as temp. stable, has programable pre infusion, front fill, can easily be modified (for $0.00) to

Weber EG-1 noises on fine grind settings
To claim 'lesser coffee' is opinion and not much else. Personally don't buy into the hype over trying to obtain that last .0001% possible improvement if the equipment can't be reliable/predictable. For any grinder to carry a cost of say $3K or more it should be perfection and last indefinitely all things considered. Not be full of low volume growing

Decent Espresso news
Why "Bengle"? Google tells me the word is Scots for "a heap, a considerable quantity". Is that it?

Weber EG-1 noises on fine grind settings
Kind of a hard response. Well look the stalling issues with the lagom 01 with no solution and I've also seen problems with Kafatek grinders. This things can happen with smaller manufacturers. If you don't want that than buy a Mazzer, Eureka or something like that and accept lesser coffee. Maybe you don't have the patience which is fine but

Help purchasing Ecm home Profitec Go or Pro 300...
Good morning everyone! I ask for your help in choosing my next espresso machine. My coffee grinder is a Eureka Specialità which was combined with a Gaggia Evo. My choice was the Profitec Drive, but from what I have read and understood, I would have to empty it continuously due to the problem of limescale accumulation. Furthermore, it would require

Ridiculous if you ask me as any new machine out-of-the-box shouldn't require much of anything to be up and running. Why people continue to recommend Breville 'appliances' is beyond me. I don't wanna read about them offering so much, the classic 'punching beyond their price', etc. On various forums, especially the last few months' I've seen a drastic amount of

La Marzocco releases Brew by Weight for Linea Mini
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
