I'm in a similar spot. I haven't been involved in the forum for some time. I too am surprised at the level of progression. After spending a lot of time reading again and applying and repeating I have had great success focusing on accurate measurement of dose and extraction ratio over time. It has al...

I have always been annoyed by the steam boiler auto fill on the Brewtus. If I brew and steam at the same time it seems to always kick on at some point during the shot. The result is the brew pressure drops to 0 and then recovers after the refill cycle stops. I hate this. I am replacing the

Yes that was it exactly. The cut away was very cool. Thank you seems like an insufficient reply for all of those links, more like thanks for putting up with my lame questions. You're always very helpful

I have a Brewtus 2. I have noticed lately that while pulling a shot there is a constant stream of water coming out of the exhaust valve on the E61. I also have to refill the reservoir and empty the drip tray much more frequently, and if I leave the machine on all day it will steadily drip from the

It sounds like the ears on the new PF may not be as thick as they are on the other one. Have you compared the two?

I mean I watched 8 minutes of nicely shot video to end with your hand totally in the way. Another video would...

I fully disassemble my grinder after each shot. While disassembled I sterilize all surfaces, sharpen the burrs, lubricate the motor shaft and doser, resolder all of the circuit board connections, and then reassemble and repackage it in the original shipping container. I then place it back on the cou...

If it is leaking at the kink the hose has a hole in it and there is little you can do other that replacing that length of hose. It looks like it needs to be routed to the other side of the other hose so as not to kink. This would probably require a longer piece of hose.

Thanks for the feedback. I think I will learn something from doing this. I guess I will have to pull out a spare grinder and the vac pot and see what I am and am not capturing in my espresso

At the risk of sounding like an idiot I must admit that I never (almost never) drink brewed coffee. The more I read the more I see that seasoned members brew their espresso as coffee first to see how it tastes before making it as espresso. Sort of a cupping but for the espresso roast? So now it's Su...
