Just released 2.4 , some great and exciting features can change your roasting experience. Roast Comparator allows to compare many roasts at one time with the ability to add and delete as you go. This feature excels at comparing roasts of the same bean, while Analyzer is great...

Wanted to get some input as to this leak.

It leaks ever so slightly right where the group is screwed into the sleeve and only one of the points where pictured.

Not sure replacing the piston seals will do anything but I need to replace them anyway.

Also when re inserting the...

I've been intrigued by the cormorant roaster and have reached out by email to Johan weekly since early May.
I've yet to receive any responses (I've tried 2 different servers and checked my junk mail files, too).
Does anyone have any information?

I've been making espressos for a couple of years using a portaspresso I bought because of incessant travelling for work. As the virus has forced companies to shift their attitude to travelling and I picked up a heavy case of upgraditis from reading posts on this site (clearly...

Going to get this up as a placeholder more than anything while I remember it.

When I was working for Mill City, I paid more attention to density. I want to get back to that. What triggered that was a comment John made about the current Yemen coffee Royal has as a Crown Jewel....

yesterday they brought me a pallet with a box weighing 73 kg
I almost couldn't lift it with a friend to the 1st floor
Now I'm trying to launch a new IZZO Pompeii and my wife is really waiting for coffee from the new machine (I can't deceive her)
original instruction - there is...

Coming back to sip at the cup of wisdom brewed by you Home Barista folks! I just upgraded from an aging but working Rancilio Silvia to an Silvano Evo (loved my Silvia, love my Silvano). I'm giving Silvia to my niece, but . . . she only has a blade grinder. Well, I can't have...

hi guys so I the cheapest grinder I can get to pull my wife decaf espresso, I have a good grinder for the good stuff but I need this for the wife, any suggestions?

Hi,
I have seen some other posts of similar products but have not seen anyone discussing this particular one, which seems relatively new. Does anyone have a view?

Like many of you my espresso machine (ECM Synchronika) can heat both boilers simultaneously when on 20A power....

Since the new linea mini has gone up in price is it worth it to hold out for a gs3? I have also seen some gs3 av for 500$ cheaper than a new mini. I hadn't even considered a gs3 in the past because the price was too high for me and I had my heart set on a linea mini. Now that...

Was doing the marker test to check for alignment today on my 804, and noticed something really odd. The low posits on my burr seem to be next to the screws? Almost like they've (or at least it, I didn't market check the static burr) been so over-tightened that slightly bent...

I'm relatively new to espresso, just got my Gaggia Classic Pro a few weeks ago and using a Eureka Specialita grinder and been doing double shots with about 18 g of coffee.

I've adjusted the grind size so that I get 36g of output for the 18g of coffee in and been playing around...

Scott Rao's new book just arrived this morning, and since it's my day off, I dived right in. So far, I think this will be an extremely useful book for any roaster, hobbyist or professional. I'd love to hear a dialogue from other folks on what their impressions are. It seems more...

Hi all, I've been a member here since 2006 but haven't been using the site much for a while after honing my barista chops over the years. My QM Anita recently required another minor repair, so I decided to take the plunge on a Vetrano 2B EVO that I've wanted for quite some time....

Hi guys, decided to look for some advice... I have the JX for about a month and struggle a bit (I'm sure it's me, not the grinder though...). I have been brewing espresso for a couple of years so dialing coffee in is not new to me, even light roasts. I recently decided to...

I got my Robot (my first espresso machine) last week, and have enjoyed playing with the various facets that go in to a good pull.

I don't yet own a grinder (still shopping around and can't commit!) so I've been using the grinder at our local Whole Foods. My first bag of beans I...

I am planning on ordering a Londinium R, and want to see if anyone is using theirs on a kitchen counter under a standard height cabinet. It would seem that since the Londinium is shorter there is enough room to refill the water tank, but I just wanted to see what others are...

Hey All,

I built a SC/TO (StirCrazy/TurboOven) a while ago, and have never been happy with my roasts. I struggle to get to FC in a reasonable amount of time, and feel that my roasts are usually baked. I have it hooked up to Artisan, and control the Environment Temperature...
