Lelit Elizabeth - First Impressions
Watching that video it seems like the steam boiler pressure is used for pre-infusion. I would assume this is instead of having idle line pressure in a plumbed machine? I wonder what effect this has on steaming while brewing. I imagine if the pre-infusion phase was going on while you started steaming...

ROK grinder burrs rubbing
That's unfortunate. I actually bought it off a HB member and he gave me a preciso burrset with it. I swapped it out for the standard one. Will the preciso burrset grind fine enough for espresso? In reality I wanted this to be a single dose grinder as I also have a Fiorenzato F4E. Maybe I'll just use...

ROK grinder burrs rubbing
I can't seem to get the Rok grinder's burrs to stop rubbing against each other when the adjustment is down to an espresso setting. I get decent espresso shots out of it but I can hear the burrs rubbing as I use it and there's some slight resistance. When I adjust it to no longer rub the grind is too

Anyone have a Izzo Alex Duetto IV?
It only moves about 0.5cm but it's sometimes enough to make water drip on the counter

Anyone have a Izzo Alex Duetto IV?
One of my biggest complaints on the Alex Duetto is that the drip tray tends to vibrate forward. This isn't much of an issue but sometimes it rattles far enough forward that when the machine heats up the drip from the warm-up cycle goes on the counter instead of into the tray as designed. The Duetto ...

Steam wand dripping water when done steaming
The issue I see with that is that it ends up dropping some water into your milk which is definitely not-optimal. I left the tips in some soapy water overnight and then situation seems to have improved marginally. On the double steam tip I only get a few bubbles and no squirts. Maybe sometime I can t...

Steam wand dripping water when done steaming
Do you think using other steam tips will affect this? I currently have a 1 hole tip but I'll try tonight with the two hole and see what happens. I just got this machine so I'm not really sure. I'll do some more testing tonight and see if there is any issue. The steam definitely drops into the green ...

Steam wand dripping water when done steaming
Hi Everyone, I'm having an issue with my Expobar where the steam wand will drop water as I close the steam knob. When I start steaming some water comes out as expected and then the steam turns into nice and dry steam as you would expect. The issue then becomes when I close the knob more water comes ...
