Fellow Aiden anyone?

I like the inventive machines people are coming up with. Seems like a lot of innovation going on. I especially like the ones that don't try to mimic traditional pour over with a kettle and cone as if that method is universally the best and not derived from human constraints. I still remember the cup I had at the ground

Dry end time vs. Drying time

No; I don't have any automatic events set... I dump the beans in and then immediately hit charge on the laptop touchscreen. I also note dry end, FC and drop manually. Just to be clear, the 4:03 that was noted as "dry% time" was as the roast was in process (after TP was automatically marked at 1:15)

Izzo Alex Duetto 3 - pressure valve, need help !

Welcome to HB Rasmus I would suggest removing and cleaning the steam boiler water level probe. The likely cause of your problem is a defective steam boiler temperature probe. If you can, please post an image or video of the PID temperatures. It looks like you're direct plumbed based on the front panel pump pressure gauge

ACS waiting times

Excitement rising. Our new Vostok ordered in early February is now en route to us, supposedly to be delivered later this week. Black with safety system and V handle. I will be fabricating wooden side panels and turning handles to match our cabinets. Will be my first exposure to a lever machine. Upgrading from a Rocket HX unit.

Looking for Liberica

If anyone wants to try some roasted Liberica... Len's Coffee now has some in stock. They have been out for a long time. Must have sourced some to roast. I have tried Barako and Liberica and really liked their Barako blend. Have not tried the new Lenberica. I may pick up a bag when I visit Boston next month, that's
