V12man Posted July 22, 2014 Share Updates please ☺OK - update - tech arrived before the plumber finished up and commissioned the machine using a couple of buckets as water source and drain - then the granite guys arrived to do some fixups on the countertop - then there was a leak in the drain, so the plumber arrived back today to fix what turned out to be an amazingly dumb piece of work - I will post a pic tomorrow - basically put the entrance for a drain below the drain pipe... he finally left at 3 today, (d..s arrived at 8:30) and I took the plastic off..... and made about 50 espressos to get the grinder in the ballpark - but it's going to take a while to settle down and get everything tuned - need to spend time with a scale to sort out the grinder timer settings and set up the volumetric programming - kind of a circular process.... I am not going to worry too much till we have about 10kg through the grinder - should take a week or 2..... Needless to say if you are in the Rosebank area, you are welcome to drop by if I am in the office. Dirty Sanchez, Pieter1 and the nerd 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brendank30 Posted July 22, 2014 Share Bought a DeLonghi a few years back and really enjoyed experimenting with different beans, steam and grind settings to get the perfect cup.My wife gave me a nesspresso machine for Christmas now I hardly ever use the DeLonghiPods are a bit more expensive per cup but the price of the machine makes up for it. Besides it’s a perfect cup everytime and I can change the coffee flavor with every cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
