Hi Guys,

I just wanted to share my story of my grinder, and maybe get some feedback about your story if you own a Sette grinder.

First, let me say that Baratza has an exemplary customer service.

18 months ago, I decided to invest in a...

I did a quick search and didn't find a post on the new Kinu M47 Traveler. I can't find any information on it, since it is not available yet. Here is a link to a sneak peek video, thought I'd pass it along-

Thanks & Peace.

Hi!

I have an Izzo Alex Duetto mk2 DB-machine at home, but it is currently broken and I'm looking for an upgrade.
I want to try out pressure profiling and I don't know what to get. I want to be able to adjust pressure on the fly.

I'm...

I've been doing the LaVazza Supercreama from Amazon thing, and its great for the house coffee to serve in milk for guests, but I'm still lusting for that fresh creamy Italian greatness in a shot. Can someone suggest some beans for me to...

I've been a serious coffee enthusiast since the early '90s. With the advent of the internet and the wealth of information available, I became passionate about espresso and grew dissatisfied with the like of Peets and the local Italian...

My wife just bought me a baratza 270wi and now I am in need of a new espresso machine. My top and budget is $1,800. I already looked at the Breville dual boiler, but I am slightly turned off by its looks. What are some of the top choices...

Hey all,
I am about to purchase a Cafelat Robot or Espresso Forge. Would the Pharos 2.0 or M47 be better for daily use? Right now we use Aeropress, but will be getting a manual espresso machine soon- probably either Cafelat Robot or...

This seems like the most apt forum for this question (but I trust that Dan will relocate it if I'm wrong).

Does anyone have experience with the Fellow Corvo EKG electric kettle for brewing water (there's a similar incarnation for...

I am looking to upgrade my 7 year old Baratza Vario W.
My biggest issue with the Vario is lack of consistency and precision of adjustment. When I adjust it, it is too coarse, too coarse, too coarse, then way too fine. I have owned the...

Hey guys, I've been wanting a commercial lever for a while, but after having a few home levers over the years, I've come to love the control and versatility of the direct/manual (non-spring) levers.

Which, if any, non-spring commercial...

Hello,

I wasn't sure quite where to post this, as I intend it simply as a discussion piece. I personally don't own a pressure profiling machine, but have certainly had some pulled by professional baristas. My impression (without having...

New BDB owner here (see my previous thread on initial issues/impressions).

Now that I've had three days with this machine I'm quite confused over how it keeps wanting significantly different grind settings. What I mean is that once I get...

Hello, this my first post, after my first day with the Export, and the first day ever with an espresso machine.
Despite being in Italy, I've to admit that I came to the decision to go for the Export after a lot of lurking on HB forums....

Hi guys,

I have set a budget for coffee machine upgrade of 600 USD.

Now I'm using Delonghi EC150 as a started espresso machine, but I feel I need to upgrade in order to continue my espresso experience.

Can you please share your...

I am considering buying the rocket appartamento and was curious how you all are timing your shots? The rocket appartamento, to the best of my knowledge, does not have a shot timer.

The wife is buying me a new grinder for Christmas . I just cannot decide which to get, the vario or sette. What are the cons of each? Why would I buy one over the other. 95% of my beverages are lattes.

In addition should I buy now or wait...

Hey guys,

I'm wondering what sorts of things y'all have 3-d printed? I recently got this little contraption:

as a solution to weighing directly in my portafilter basket on my scale.

I simply downloaded the file from brewista's...

Hi all,

I received a can of the Blue Bottle Hayes Valley as a gift. When I went to open it is was very oily. I also received a bag with a fresh roast date and the beans were much better and less oily. Any thoughts on this? This is the...

I am getting a new espresso machine and after using a bottomless for 4 years would you still invest in another one? (The present one would be too small for the new one)
I know the rules in and out and know what causes spraying (I don't...
