    Thank you. Would you like it to be a bit more?

    @john, thank you for the detail, especially regarding the burr sizes and adjustments. I do like the industrial retro look on these E61 machines but I must admit that the Sage DB is still keeping me looking at eBay and it probably would until my final commit, in a week or so. Main reason is the...

    Hi, which Bestmax are you using e.g. "Bestmax Premium" or just "Bestmax" - what is the difference?

    First of all, thank very much for taking time to share your experiences with the Sage DB. I am sure it will help many people who are considering Sage. Agree with you point, in fact that is my only real concern with the prosumer machines, the risk of me being the only one who would be able to...

    BTW, La Pavoni looks really good ... not sure I have the skills for that. Out of interest, why would you leave the machine on for a whole day and to worm up for 40 min, in a domestic environment?

    Sooo true.

    My key requirement is 80% milk-coffee drinks and 20% espresso only. Also, I wold be making 2-4 coffees in one go, so dual boiler is probably something I would need. Because of the milk drinks, I would like some decent pressure e.g. >=1.3 bars on the steam wand, preferably 1.8. Maybe I should...

    Fear enough but I did say most not anyone.

    I have seen this mentioned in many places and I can see why. Will have to buy SH or just wait for a bit before the dent is smaller.

    I agree with your point! But I guess I am making a point for people who are not buying it because of comments raised in previous posts. Here is my conclusion: I will not be buying the Sage Oracle, which : - is functionally rich (allowing most people to make good coffee) - is elegant (in my...

    ... also, thanks for the above advice, specifically. It makes sense. I am still trying to figure out HX and why dual boiler setup is that much better. As to the grinder - I am trying to go very cheap initially, as the coffee machine will be a big dent in my pocket. So I am still undecided on...

    Partially, that is why I was considering it, so I don't have to make all the coffees . However, what made me turn the other way is the support and non-availability of parts plus material number of negative reviews. As I said, this would not bother me if the parts were available. I am glad...

    I guess I did. Probably I just needed to hear it from somebody else, with more experience. Sorry you had to learn the hard way and go trough the loop of buy\sale but at least you got the machine you are happy with now. I am really surprised they have this strategy, as I think it will turn away...

    ... it is asking a completely different question, in my mind.
  15. Lelit Forum
    Great review! Thank you for the link. I really like it too. ... Two grand is a lot of money so have to think twice.
  16. Coffee Accessories
    ...meaning what, budget for repairs?
  17. Coffee Accessories
    I am new to the forum so hello to all! I am looking to purchase a good espresso machine and was considering some dual boiler ones like ECM, Bezzera, Profitec , Lilet and Exobar. I came across Sage Oracle, which has some good features and a fair price but its built cheap and based on many...
