  1. Coffee Accessories
    reporting back - after dosing down even more to 15.5g and turning temperature up by 2 degrees, results are now significantly better and really consistent.
  2. Coffee Accessories
    I have the flair58. Using it with a 17g Strada (VST) basket and a 16g dose. Getting some mixed results - some much better than I have had without, others not so good. I put the bad shots down to the fact that quite a few parameters change, eg brew temperature, grind size, flow. I also get...
  3. Compak Grinders
    Bought mine for around £450 almost 2 years ago. At the time it was almost 8 years old and in immaculate condition (save for a threaded burr carrier which I did not find until later - but thats another story). I agree that £400-500 is fair.. however given the current hype for doseless grinders...
  4. All Grinders & Hand-Grinders
    Arrived today! DPD did not update until about 10pm last night when it reached their depot in Hinckley, and it was at my door in central London by 3pm this afternoon. Everything seems in good order, but unfortunately won't be unpacking and testing it as it's a present for someone :(

    I struggled with my Oscar II at first. A few things helped: - Changed the pertruding bolt that holds in the shower screen for a flush one - Dose the basket less than expected (eg 16g in a 18/20g basket). I found the shower screen sits quite low in the basket and disturbs the puck Some...
  7. Compak Grinders
    I am in the middle of doing the same with my K10 Pro Barista. I bought my K10 in a lightly used condition about 3 years ago, and I suspect the previous owner cross threaded it already, since the grinder adjustment collar would stop a bit past the espresso range. I never thought much of it...
  8. 👋 Introductions 👋
    Like the difference is night and day. Straight out of the box - the first shot ran too quickly, but the second was better that anything that has ever come out of the classic. Flavours are so much more clear and bright. The cherub is also so much more pleasurable to use. Hot water tap, scary...
  9. 👋 Introductions 👋
    Hi all.. I've been lurking here for a while looking for tips to improve my espresso. I recently bought a Fracino Cherub as an upgrade from my PID'd Gaggia Classic on the strength of review mainly in these forums - so I thought it about time I started contributing to discussions. My current...
