the nerd Posted November 5, 2020 Share I know i'm taking a long shot here, but I am looking for a replacement portafilter for my Breville cafe venezia (Bes250), in particular the little insert, as well as the tool, and a 50mm tamper. I tried @home,who sells Breville, but no luck/no stock, so I am trying my luck, maybe someone has a broken machine with parts♂ Saw a whole machine like that at Cash Convertors camaro crossing for under R1000... Might be worth checking might be a bargain and spares for ever! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grass Muncher Posted November 14, 2020 Share Does anyone know where I can buy coffee seeds in Joburg so that I can make my own trees. Its just the normal bean in its skin before it gets roasted if im correct. the nerd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheoG Posted November 14, 2020 Share Does anyone know where I can buy coffee seeds in Joburg so that I can make my own trees. Its just the normal bean in its skin before it gets roasted if im correct. As far as I know, Gauteng is not really suitable for growing coffee. Its been done very successfully in the Low Feld (Sabie) and other places more to the north. Also as I understand its not an easy thing to cultivate, but why not give it a shot. Unroasted beans are the seeds. You should be able to order unroasted beans from somewhere.

the nerd Posted November 14, 2020 Share I'm not sure you could plant an unroasted bean and grow from there. If you want to try let me know and I'll happily give you a few green beans. Hairy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted November 14, 2020 Share I was given a coffee plant as a gift. A mate got it on the south coast. Was as small as the one of the left, but after a few years it’s now the one on the right.

Stoffel_ZA Posted November 23, 2020 Share unfortunately, the time has come for me to part with my pride and joy. Didn't know if I should add this to the classifieds or not. I am selling my Simonelli Aurelia Competizione and my Mahlkonig K30 grinder. They are a matching set. WBC London edition. I am looking for 45k for machine and 15k for the grinder. Please message me if you guys are interested or know of anyone that is. Thanks very much! Meezo, Long Wheel Base, the nerd and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
