Thanks WWWired, reading your older posts on these machines convinced me to take a stab at mine For closure, I found out from NS directly that the older control boards used manual potentiometer style adjustments behind the buttons. The newer style control panel will have the button method. Thanks for all your work on this board!

Usually, that is perfectly ok to prevent dust and insects from getting in. However, some places have more insects than others, and so a well-fitting

Sorry, I was referring to the "Timemore Sculptor 078s". And this wasn't the only grinder I had to shim right out of the box, I had the same issue even with smaller burrs and well established manufacturers (Eureka Specialita 55mm) but at least in Eureka's case, the access to the burr chamber and the entire alignment procedure was a breeze

I just purchased a brand new breville dual boiler that is gurgling. Surely this can't be normal? {video}

The sweetness descriptor sounds lots like many cast burrs that also have this effect on light roast. Making them sweeter a tad less clear and nuanced than say the high clarity ones but precent light roast well, something traditional espresso burrs really do not doz

Kaffelogic can be used successfully with limited roasting knowledge using one of the many available roasting profiles, and is totally repeatable. Batch size is small, but running a few roasts back to back is super-simple

Thanks alot for the response mate! I did take the water level probe and valve off, descaled it and even put the valve in cafiza, to get dirt away. It is plumbed yes, and the temperature is set to 128 and 93 degrees. Before this happened, normally with 128 degrees its around the high end on the pressure

Hi guys, I am an absolutely, complete total coffee beginner, located in Melbourne Australia looking to update my coffee game. Currently I just buy pre-ground coffee from the supermarket and brew it in a Breville aroma style BCM600. Out side of home I buy a cappuccino, and my fiancé likes a double strength latte. Pretty much I only make

Most of the fancy third-wave shops I know took their Roburs off the counter years ago. Their iconic 83mm conical burrs in the 220 V models (which is the same as in your Key) are seen by many as not modern enough anymore in the era of light roasts and many new flat burr grinders. Me, I am still
