Highest chance of success - roasters
I'm not a fan of the "local roasters" metric since it obviously depends on where you live and also the goalposts of what you consider really good coffee, roast level and flavor profile, etc. I have a couple roasters in my area that roast good coffee. I also have a local one that isn't bad but gets the same mediumish

Mazzer Philos Comments
What's the "Dose Finisher"? How often does it need to be used? Is it used to minimize retention, or only when cleaning the grinder? Thank you so much for the detailed review!

ACS waiting times
The safety release would have been the reason for the delay. I got one of the 1st ones back in Jan/Feb I think it was, and was not happy with all aspects of it...I know they have worked on the issues and resolved them relatively recently. I did advise them strongly, not to send any machines out with a safety

ACS waiting times
I ordered in late October with the safety release. When I was asked for the second half of the payment, it was "Early February" shipping. On March first, I asked for an update and got "next week". In the silver lining department, I'm having to severely limit my coffee intake for health reasons, so it's not much of a burden

Breville Dual Boiler Fill Pump keeps running Fix
Had the issue of the fill pump never stopping when not pulling a shot today. I know this topic was brought up [here]("Breville Dual Boiler pump keeps running after ending shot"). I believe for me that it was a case of a pocket of air stuck at the pump since it was not pulling any water either. I had

Dry end time vs. Drying time
It sounds like you're referring to the estimate at the top of the screen? Artisan will try to approximate at what time you will reach the milestone based on the current rate. If it thinks you'll reach dry end at 300°F (I think it automatically adjusts this expected temp based on your previous roasts) and your rate or rise is

Odyssey Argos owner experience
I think that's all fair to hear, thank you. It's clear that I'm naive to how to build machines. I largely want to be able to say that I know HOW to fill the boiler and confidently know when I'll need to turn it off and depressurize the boiler to add water moving forward. Yes, there are

Odyssey Argos owner experience
It's the only significant design flaw I'm seeing, but to me it sounds like a manageable minor annoyance. I wonder how current owners are dealing with it? I imagine I'll figure out a standard, catch-all volume of water to add any time the low water light comes on, and it won't be much of an issue

Breville Dual Boiler Mods and Maintenance
Hi, what's the trick to put metal insert inside the tube? Seems like insert expands the tube a little bit and it will not go inside ferrule. I haven't tried heating it up, not sure if it will help. Your help appreciated. {image}
