another shared win this year ????????‍♂️

@babse

Agree, finer grind, and 16g dose, if you overdose you can damage the group head when the coffee expands, ive learnt the hard way. Tamp moderate to hard but in such a way that you can do it the same every time for consistency. another tip is to run half a cup of water through the group head or steamer, as hot water, just to make sure that the boiler is heating again and at the right temperature, since it doesnt have PID it would have quite a range of temperature where it switches on or off. I really found this to work when dialing in the shot. good luck

yes please do share, im seriously considering getting this, wife has been moaning about the size of the casadio so this thingy is amazing and right size too

clearly you werent bliksemed enough or hard enough

You are seriously a bunch of special people, you wouldnt give anyone any credit. bunch of keybord warriors

that is SO clever! how come I havent thought of that

I have a greaf ES 85 espresso machine that is lying around, just got it back from a service, anyone interested can contact me, need to make space in the house

drop me a DM if you are looking for a grinder

showoff

So stoked for hatherley, pity nino found his legs, if it was cannondale 1st and 2nd and hatherley in top 5 it would have been the best race ever

found this newish local brewery around the corner from me, they apparently won best new roastery award for coffeemag or something. anyway, amazing coffee and the guy really knows his stuff and he is very helpful and shared lots of tips and tricks

its nice, just pity about the brain shock

Is there a thread on baking or anything related? Im looking for some advice on sourdough bread.

nice but I must agree, no option with battery/motor. I would def have bought one since affordability is their game

lol, clearly you are new here

Where do you get that deal?

It was a lekka one, I totally agree. Some teams deliberately draft others with the only intention of getting a free ride. But like the guy say, difficult to pull away or overtake in a headwind. The savages really outdid themselves this year, great going

it cant be that difficult to replace the battery yourself. Im sure you can find a compatible/replacement battery somewhere online. Ill do the replacement for you for free if you can source the battery

sounds good! im interested

Hahaha, spot on splat!! Rocket for the win!! That is a nice combo, i do have a decent grinder though

thats the thing, if the right machine comes along I can "make" a budget for it, haha. but looking for an espresso type machine. Rancilio, expobar, that kinda vibe

Looking to buy a new coffee machine. Anyone selling theirs or can recommend anything. Want to get something fairly decent, but preferably not break the bank, haha

I really love this app/tool! Its like trainingpeaks/golden cheetah but just cooler and its web based so I can even see it on my phone. Kudos to David for all the hard work!!!

Selling my Graef ES85 espresso coffee machine, thought Id hear if anyone here is interested before doing the classifieds. Had it for about 6 months, pulls a great shot. Contact me for more pics. Asking R6k
