Versalab M4 - truly WDT free?
@GreenyMeanie, the Honne is made in Europe, while the other two are made in the U.S. Since they are all pricey, it might be hard to find a comparison of all three by one person. And most Versalab reviews are about the M3. I have the Honne and have found the newly bought shaker (I got us a

How do you guys do it when you suddenly realise you need to make another espresso after steaming milk? I mean... it happens. Do you just wait or do you try to do something to make it drop in temp faster? Edit: hmmm, watched the {video} and it seems he just bleeds the steam valve for a bit. Would

@bgn, each order gets its own number, even if it was for, say, an extra portafilter. They are then combined and one package is sent.

My #237 presents itself as #145. I was surprised as well when I got mine, but it is all OK. They send a confirmation email. Really quick delivery. The wait was long, but we knew it was going to be
