Coffee machine

[Rocket-Boy]

All that work for a blade grinder? I'm disappointed.

I also wondered about that when the video came out.

Diresta is normally into practical things, but it was really just a veiled advertisement for their coffee.

Need advice please. I think my Jura xf50 needs a service. Last few weeks the consistency of the water temp seems hit and miss. Some days the coffee is luke warm and others it's still not that hot. Also the 2 outlets are not letting the same amount of coffee out. I Googled that and they said just stick a needle up there. It works but not long and the one side starts slowing again.

So should I attempt opening and servicing myself or just take it in. There are 4 oval screws on the back that you can buy a tool to remove but I can easily make something in 10 min for that.

Anyone here opened a Jura before? Any surprises inside?

Just from some random sites it just seems I need to clean and replace some o rings. But I want to open to see why the water isn't heating up properly.

My new setup. Had a budget, almost pulled the trigger on a machine and the seller decided to sell it to his friend instead, so back to square one. Then this popped up, at a pretty good deal and couldn’t turn it down. Budget got blown out the window, but we don’t share that with the other half.

That’s the dream home setup for me. Enjoy!

That would be my dream machine!

My Bean2Cup machine went into for a (major) service involving a number of replacement parts, in November/December. Has to go back tomorrow for warranty claim on the repairs done.

 

My feelers are out for an alternative solution; possibly later this year. With zero budget, it’s going to be fun finding something for the long term.

Quick question:

How often would you recommend to descale your Bean to Cup machine in Joburg (I have a Mythos) and which mixture would you recommend that can easily be purchased and is affordable - thanks!!

I've been using the Dezcal descaler sachets (28 grams) which I mix in the water container before activating the Descale option on my machine.

It's been a while - howsit all :)

Is anyone using the Delonghi EC685? Looking for a cheap manual machine for my office.
