Discoloring cone...

Hi All! Got a new Kalita one cup copper/stainless cone and there is a dull grey discoloration on the stainless liner. Heavy scrubbing only removes some of it, looks benign but what could it be?

Replacement for Everpure ESO 7

Hello All: I've been using a pair Everpure ESO-7 cartridges in my home setup replacing them once a year. They have gone from $85 to $145 each. They do a good job as far as I know but maybe some other less expensive one would do well. What cartridges do you all use? Have pretty good water to start with

Grindz out the bottom of Eureka Atom

Hi All; When I run Grindz through my Eureka Atom to clean it some come out of the bottom (out of the vent holes) of the grinder along with some coffee grounds. Seems to work fine otherwise, something to worry about? Thanks, KDM

Eureka Atom dead

Gave the wiring a once over will go back in and get a closer look, maybe pull the lower board to see the underside. Once in awhile something will be visible and fixable.

Pressure Switch Lifespan?

Yes, steam boiler in my Linea. Supply water great and filtered before it gets to machine. All the switch sees is steam. It's the mechanical part hanging up causing over pressure, I think, will take a look at the contacts when I swap out the bad one

Pressure Switch Lifespan?
