Problem with Bezzera Unica
I found this thread on it. If you know a mechanic, that should work. Otherwise, if you know someone with an impact wrench, that should also work. One other thing they brought up is replacing the gasket. "Bezzera Unica heating element"

Breville Oracle - hole in hose | Replace or fix/seal?
It would probably be best to replace it. {link} Might sell them. But if you can move the ferrule up, snip the last 1/2 inch off and reinsert the insert, it might last a while

Breville Oracle - hole in hose | Replace or fix/seal?
I'd say sealing that would be difficult, if not impossible. That line is at 9+ bar when extracting. You might be able to pull the insert and ferrule off, snip the line back and reinstall. I have not tried to remove a ferrule from one of these lines yet

Weber Workshop BIRD: How's the brew?

Weber EG-1 noises on fine grind settings
Hi @HBchris This is a video I made with my barista friend. He has 1yo black EG-1 (mk3) while mine is a silver one, 1 week old. You can look at the experience yourself and decide if it's normal or not, misaligned or not. In a non-scientific fashion, I tried to equalize most of the other aspects of
