    I've just seen a youtube video, , advocating the same thing. Seems like a very good idea to me 😉 .

    @ Alfieboy Err no. 🤨 I was pressing the top two buttons as shown in the user manual which came with the machine. That could explain why I was less than impressed with the backflush function. For cleaning I just put the bits in the dishwasher which seems to work OK. @Clodius Thanks for...

    @ Clodius I looked at their site but the shipping was 3x the cost of the part (10.34 for a 2.67 part). Also as I would prefer a slightly thicker one I checked out Cafelat UK Limited | The Official Online Store of Cafelat in UK as kindly suggested by KK£ (3 posts above) and ordered both an 8...

    Thankyou for your assistance. I finally figured that the screen was held on by a central countersunk allen screw, 3mm key needed. Once I had undone the screw the screen and brass backing plate came out with little persuasion. I was astonished how much coffee residue was left. I had reverse...

    Thanks for the advice. It looks like a separate grinder and machine will do the job. I'm thinking of getting the Lelit Elisabeth as it just scoots in height wise, and a Sage Grinder Pro (ordered) initially to see how things go. Will likely get Elisabeth from espressounderground as good price...

    Nearly pulled the trigger on one of these, but I found its too high at 47cms to fit under my kitchen cabinets, at 40cms. Loved the machine and its features, especially it doing most of the work including tamping. Also the milk steamer seems pretty good. Does anyone know of a similar machine...
