    I have the same, late flow, 2 streams into one. There is a difference in the cup when I compare it to the Sage Pro, in that I get better taste and flavour from the Niche. With the Niche the flavours just pop and I can explore the complexity of the coffee mouth feel. Given I have only had it a...

    @MildredM - These are great

    I didn't calibrate properly, what I mean is I didn't tighten the silver ring much and I was way off. Got some help from Dave as detailed further up the thread when he mentioned we calibrated differently. So recalibrated again this time I went tighter on the silver ring than I would have...

    Hi there Yes they are Lunar scales. If you have a set the recent FW update should allow you to do so. I have mine in High Res mode which allows to 2 decimal point. Have a look here and it's gives you the info on how to do it...

    Maybe one should learn to keep one's mouth shut, and take one's own advice and get a life rather than being a keyboard gangster!

    Is it? Well obviously not! Doesn't matter what you paid. Yes, Niche will pick up on it and hopefully prevent this from happening again.

    Sorry buddy but I have to disagree. For some the outlay of ยฃ350 - ยฃ450 for a grinder is a bit steep. Fair enough they don't 'have' to buy but I would do the same. You wouldn't accept a new car / iPhone / laptop with a chip/ding on it. Why should Niche be any different.

    Brilliant, thanks for the response folks. I just wasn't expecting more in the PF. The variance in terms of grind setting is about 2 marks, so nothing really in that. @DavecUK thanks for clearing that up Dave.

    I'm running 2 different beans through mine at the moment. An S/O El Salvador and an Espresso blend. I forgot to take a pic of the espresso in /out, hut here is one for the S/O This has happened a few times. I didn't expect to get more out than I put in. I wonder if the previous grind...

    Nice one. I followed Dave's advice and redone the calibration again last night in prep for this morning. Bang on the button it was. Still a little too fast so went to 12.5 and its ideal for the espresso and El Salvador. In fact the El Salvador is just sublime. Mouthfeel, taste in the cup...

    I think your right Dave. The next couple of weeks/months will be interesting for me anyway as I have a variety of beans to get through, although not as much as 7Kg

    Ok I may have taken your advice from your video 'to just give it a nip' a bit to literal. When I served my time as a Mechanic I was always told I had a touch like an elephant [emoji208]. So I've just done another calibration and went more full on with it. So I will pull a shot tomorrow and...

    That's a bummer, looks like it's been rubbing in transit.

    I am using an Expobar Office Leva DB. I have a pre infusion of 2bar for about 5secs then it ramps up to around 9.5 for the remainder of the pull. I would say the beans are of a medium roast and the El Salvador probably similar. Do you think 10 is too much?

    It's Homeground 5 Bean Tweak Espresso Blend Also got some Thomson's El Salvador and could possibly be going down to 8 on a 18g dose
