Have been using a robot for years and I love its simplicity. Nearly zero maintenance, easy to adjust the shot in the fly, it's been great. I make my wife an americano and myself a shot during the weekdays and life is good. Usually 18g in/36g out with medium/dark roast, but I...

Just want to get some opinion on this theoretical pressure profile curve...
The idea is to let pre-infusion happen at 2-2.5 bar until first drop, then start with this spring profile
Do you think this would be a good starting point from build?

Being theoretical, it doesnt...

I broke my back moving this machine, but I am happy to present one of the wildest Faema Uranias I've ever seen; two hydraulic groups and one hotel group (I DO have the glass, it's in shipment still). The entire shipment was 285lb/130kg. It withstood some abuse, but it survived...

I have been using the Quickmill Achilles 0996 for over 10 years now, and am looking for a new lever machine.

I was hoping that some of the current Vecis users can help me out with some use case and workflow issues.

90% of the time I pull three shots (split with my wife) and...

I LOVE the Argos lever, but I have trouble with the boiler cap (thank you, a lifetime of working with my hands) due to creeping arthritis. Ross kindly sent me a spare boiler cap, so I can think about/make modifications.

Since the cap only turns 1/2 turn, I'm thinking about...

Anyone else getting frustrated with the wait for an Evo Leva? Am wondering if i should have just got an LR24, Micra, or something...

Hi All -

I recently purchased a Bezzera Strega TOP, which I am so far loving. I wanted to check the PI and brew pressure and to see how they ramp and decline. I also wanted to verify what pressure the OPV is actually set to. The dealer told me 15 bar, while I've read 11bar...

I've seen the 3D printing files but I don't want to go that route. I'm hoping someone knows of a genuine drip tray for my machine.

Hi all,

I've never used an espresso maker of any kind before! :D But I'm helping a family member get a 1985 Olympia Cremina back into operation, which seemed to be in excellent condition except that water would force itself out of the group before the machine fully came up to...

I currently have a Cremina and I use the one hole steam tip with some success. I found that with the right milk pitcher It can make all the difference but even then it is not easy to get consistent results. Sometimes it makes the perfect micro foam and other times it is globs of...
