Hello

I have a Rocket Cinquantotto.

I usually steam between 100ml and 200ml(3.4and 6.8 oz).

I sometimes like a 1:1 ratio of espresso and milk

I found a stainless steel pitcher that holds 85 ml (2.9 oz)

Needless to say, the steaming gets messy,...

Hello. I bought a Sage Barista Pro machine today. As I pulled out the burr, I smelled something like grease. Is this normal with this machine and does it not match the taste of the coffee?

I'm repairing an Isomac Tea Cool for a friend, about 10-11 years old (the machine that is).
It was never cleaned, so everything was clogged of course.

Hi,

I have a Mazzer mini doser grinder with the standard 58mm flat burrs. What would be the best upgrade for this grinder in-terms of better taste in the cup (my preference is lighter roasts). I'm considering the following (and some comments from my research):
1) 64mm SSP burrs...
