Sharing recent experience with Whole Latte Love and Baratza.

I ordered a Baratza Sette 270 from WLL and received a new unit that did not work. Motor wouldn't spin (yes, both safety switches engaged and checked many times...) WLL said it wasn't their problem, I needed to contact...

I want to post it because it is the first in-depth, English review that I have found.

I recently acquired a La Pavoni (pre-millennium, probably from around 1980). I did some work on it, replacing gaskets etc. I just tried to pull a shot, but ran into an odd problem.

I don't have an espresso grinder, so I bought some ground La Vazza espresso to try. I used 14g...

Hi friends! I received my white LM Linea Micra today. Overall it looks just like the Linea but scaled down. Setup was a breeze and the packaging was nice and minimal. The box seems to be the same, if not even smaller than that of my Rocket Appartamento. I've pulled one shot so...

I recently returned from visiting family for the holidays. I roasted some coffee...

Other angle :

Tried to tight it up, but I cant, I also cant unscrew it.

Any help?

Hey all,

I'm a long time lurker on the Lever forum and thought I'd chime in with my experience making espresso at home on a new Cremina. This is not so much a review on the Cremina (As I don't have anything to compare it to), as it is my impressions making espresso for the...

Hello,

I recently got my hands on a La Cimbali M20C/1. I have a fair bit of experience operating espresso machines, but not much restoring them. I think I have figured out all the levers and switches, but there are two wires coming from the bottom of the machine.
