I have no idea. I haven't used the Pico and don't know much about it at all

One might think that a constant weight of beans in the hopper is required. And maybe it isn't. Discovering that sensitivity is a simple experiment. Scott Guglielmino, of La Marzocco told me what they found for dosing consistency and I have some preliminary data that supports it. I'm not going to post it here because the grinder came

Hello I had the same problem with our Breville Barista Express tripping the earth-leakage(RCD) switch. The cause was the 3-way CEMA solenoid. After I replace it, the steam and hot water are diverted to the grouphead. The solution was to rotate the plastic part of the solenoid 180 degrees. The solenoid should be open from the right (when viewed from

I think there's more to it than that. For one thing, most of the European equipment sites I have visited recently do not sell US-compatible models. I think it has more to do with market support. Lelit is in a very different position than Quickmill and the others because they are part of an international consumer company that

Bringing a machine to the US also has complications with needing to change to 120 V operation and ideally getting safety approvals. The CE approvals don't transfer to US approvals. Unless there is sufficient volume to justify the upfront expenses, it doesn't make economic sense to import "yet another sub-1,000 machine". In that price class it is hard to compete

Are all the following machines capable of back to back no problem? >Speedster >Slayer >Leva X >Strada X >GS3/MP or AV >ES.1 >The Nurri Leva SA has a lever and I'm not familiar with that style. I do like that it heats quickly but the 54 mm would mean I need to buy new tamping stuff

Hi all, I am selling my Monolith MAX. It has served me with no issues, but I'm wanting to try an MC6. The MAX has SLM burrs, an all black body with red top plate, and blue LED. It runs on 110V. The grinder is in beautiful condition, and has been protected with a leather mat from Mildred that

That's pretty much what I expected to hear. It just seems like a bit of a waste

Are there any other small, travel friendly electric grinders I should consider? Turin DM 47? Or is the Lagom mini the only real option?

Reboiled water is not the same as once-boiled water, however, the difference is slight. Boiling drives off volatile compounds and dissolved gases. Reboiling may increase this effect, depending on the composition of the water. With most city water, there would not be much difference, but with some well water, boiling improves the taste of the water. Also, the longer
