Thanks - I'll give it a go (y)

Hi all. I've picked up a second hand Moccamaster. The machine itself is clean and in great condition but the whole thing smells of...
-
OK, I waited until the machine was thoroughly dried out, but it still tripped. I've now bought a new element, and it's currently...
-
Thanks Bill - much appreciated. Its the RCD that's tripping, so fingers crossed it was just some residual moisture. I drained the boiler...
-
Thanks for the replies. I am pretty confident it was all dried out as I left it overnight, but I'm going to double check again tomorrow...
-
Yes, it's all exposed - still has the sides & back off.

Hi all,
I have a Nuova Simonelli Oscar 2. It had a leak near the gasket on the element, so I replaced the gasket, descaled, and put it...

Exactly what I was going to say! I still use them as my main scales, and in all other respects, they're great, but not being able to...

Don't know with my current batch... I drew a shot when it first arrived, it looked 'about right', tasted great and so I didn't change...

I never met him, but knew of him via vx220.org.uk. Small world. Very sad.
-
Yeah, I am aware of those limitations, and have had a dial ready for adjusting the OPV since purchasing the Gaggia, I just never got...
-
Thanks for the advice everyone. I've purchased a used Mazzer Major from the for sale section, and will stick to the Gaggia for the...

I found it a while back when first learning how to make a decent coffee! I failed then but am now determined to give it another go!
-
I've just joined but lurked for a while a couple of years back when trying to get a decent cup of coffee from my Gaggia Classic!
-
I guess my overall budget is max £1000, but I was thinking that was for a machine and a grinder...I've completely stripped down my...
-
Thanks - that's certainly food for thought. It hadn't occurred to me the amount of coffee left behind to go stale in the grind. I'm...

Hi! I've lurked briefly in the past, but have finally decided to join at last to get some advice. My wife and I were visiting London at...
