New Timemore Sculptor Grinders 064 064s 078 078s
Hello guys, esspress lungo only enthousiast here. I would like to weight in (also backing the 78S). As I prerequisite, we shall all agree that the guy shares his experience with the device that he has in hands, it would not be serving us, client, if reviwers only shared good experiences, and leave the bad ones / potential defects

Convert to rotary pump - stepper motor
So the issue is one of scale (as in size of things, not calcium carbonate). Most espresso machine pumps put out 50-70 L/hr. Espresso flow rate are typically 5-7 L/hr. Because rotary pumps are positive displacement devices, they will always reach max pressure if their output flow rate is greater than the system flow rate. Thus, the

1964 Faema President V2 refurb
I win. The boiler shifted a little when taking off the first fitting so I got out some straps to hold the boiler while using the breaker bar on the second fitting. I had my metal guy take off these fittings from my Lambro and Urania for me in the past so I'm happy I could it myself

Convert to rotary pump - stepper motor
thanks again, I must admit that I don't understand this thing of drilling the bypass. At the same speed and with a appropriate torque, what's the difference between the behaviour of a 120/220 v motor and a DC motor? For me the bypass starts when the required pressure is reached wathever motor you use. There's also a possibility

Convert to rotary pump - stepper motor
Voltage difference plays no role in available torque when each motor has windings that are appropriate for their designed voltage. So if you take a 12V motor and apply 24V, the motor will spin twice as fast, assuming the windings and everything else can take the additional voltage, current and heat. But if you take a 24V motor and a

Anyone using Northbound Coffee Roasters?
Thanks for the information. I ended up ordering American Beauty and ran (2 lbs each). Recommended rest time before pulling 1st shot or popping into freezer?

I emptied the tank suspicious that the water level was too high, the machine then turns on and pumps in water until the correct level. After filling and trying to turn on the boiler it shuts off again. It has a safety thermostat but the red button is clicked in, can it still be faulty? I don't
