    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...
  2. Rocket Forum ๐Ÿš€
    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...

    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'd settled on this model but have seen a few comments here about it producing excessively clumpy grinds, damn you!- I think the word marbles was used! I don't want to shell out ยฃ270 and be disappointed but I love the looks and size of the Eureka. Any opinions?
  9. Coffee Beans
    I know this is a can of worms but what's the best way to buy beans from fair, ethical and sustainable sources? Presumably most small UK roasters aren't able or certified to apply fair trade or rainforest alliance logos evn if the growers are certified? Is there any kind of list of sellers who...
