    next question - ridged or ridge-less?

    ah, hadn't noticed that!

    Maybe I've got it wrong but if you look at this item and look at the question asked. http://www.coffeehit.co.uk/la-marzocco-basket-17g/p863#tdesc_9

    Just to clarify, I said that Coffeehit say they are the same. Strange that they're so much cheaper? Thanks for the comments. I use the standard Rocket double portafilter so i guess the 15g is the one to go for. I presume this one will fir my Rocket Portafilters...

    Hello, I haven't bought any new toys for a while and was wondering about the Naked Portafilters and VST baskets. Is it worth it? What exactly is the point of the naked filter? And regarding the baskets, I'm a bit confused. Are the LM ones that Coffeehit sell the same as the VST ones...

    Just thought I should post some opinions on my first coffee set up - you guys gave me lots of advice through the deliberations and inevitable doubling, nay, tripling, of the budget! I went for a Rocket Cellini Plus V2 and a Eureka Mignon from Bella Barista, after originally considering the...
  7. Coffee Beans
    I've tried the Bolivian David vilca and have an unopened bag of the Colombian Oporapa from Hasbean. I've only had a few drinks so far so maybe I need to play around but the beans have a certain aroma, like the jailbreak and maybe it's just the lighter roast. and in the cup there's something of...
  8. Coffee Beans
    Does that mean unwashed and naturally dried? What difference does that make to the coffee? Bought some of the BTP dark roast to tide me over, nice, and works well in a 12oz latte. And I've just received some Bolivian David vilca and Colombian Oporapa from Hasbean to try. Next day delivery...
  9. Coffee Beans
    The jailbreak has now gone and was nice although not as nice as the Brazilian espresso I was getting from my local roaster. And as for the Breakfast Bomb, i think that's going in the bin! The beans smell funky and sour, the grinds smell the same and the coffee smells and tastes the same. Had a...

    Isn't that what many places sell as latte cups and what most cafes serve as a latte? I use the 7oz cups that I got from Origin as well but like a 12oz as well. Maybe 10oz would be a good in-between?
  11. Coffee Beans
    Thanks for all the comments. I'll try the breakfast bomb again tomorrow. Either I'm not doing it right or maybe it's just not to my taste. The jailbreak was nice but got Lost in a 12oz latte. I'll also have a look at Union and Extract, thanks. When I look at single origin coffees, will they...

    I take it you're not a fan of Hasbean then?
  13. Coffee Beans
    I placed my first order with Hasbean last week, super quick delivery, great service. I ordered some decaf for my wife who's expecting, and some breakfast bomb and jailbreak for me. I'm a newcomer to coffee really and up until now I've been drinking the Brazilian espresso from my local...

    I was actually a bit nervous opening it; as a total newcomer it's a bit daunting to have such a lovely shiny toy that I have no idea how to use! I'd picked up a small bag of the house espresso from Two Day Roasters in Bristol. I also had a big bag of the Italian beans free from Bella Barista...

    It's arrived! Un-boxing as we speak!

    Morning, I'm looking for some digital scales that I can rest a portafilter on, zero, then grind into the portafilter and weigh the grinds with 0.1 g accuracy. I need something that won't auto-off all the time. Ideally good quality, not the cheap eBay stuff I see but not massively expensive...

    Well, first i want to pull good shots and then make all the milky drinks and end making squiggly patterns on top! That Home Barista guide looks really useful.

    Hello, My new Rocket Cellini Plus V2 arrives on Monday and I was wondering if there are any good written guides on using HX espresso machine to produce a range of drinks. I've read lots of posts here and watched loads of YouTube videos which have been really helpful so I have a good idea what...

    The link I posted shows a machine for beans but if you navigate back a level they also do pod versions. I'm sure Neff do versions as well.
