Hi all,

So in my household I tend to drink Espresso, and my Girlfriend tends to drink Filter.
Currently we have 2 grinders - Rancilio Rocky for Espresso and just an old Krupps one for the Filter.
My question is - I am wanting to potentially buy the Niche Zero, but I would...

I think that the process of locking the portafilter is causing the boiler to slowly rotate clockwise. If you look straight down, the grouphead is slightly past the 6 o'clock position. Or, if you look straight at it, the grouphead is slightly to the left of center. So... do I...

Hello lever fans.
Has anyone followed the Londinium forum and saw that Reiss is developing a new compact spring lever model? He won't offer many details but I think it's going to be around the size of a Cremina with a bit larger boiler and a 58mm spring lever group. It will be...

Hello everybody, I'm Henry, Italy based. A newbie on this forum and in coffee world.

Hi,
I'm soon arriving to the US and would like to try a local espresso roast.

Hi everyone,

I currently have a setup that consists in a 10inch softener cartridge (Pentek WS-10) followed by a carbon filter and then my pressure regulator.
Ran this with my Rocket for years, but still had to descale, as the mushroom in the E-61 would get some scale gump on...

I've always used a single cup V60 01 brewer for myself with good results, but recently bought an 02 so I can make 2 cups.

I'm not sure what changes to make on grind size and water pulses to get the best out of the 02.
