    I think it has a bit at the back that activates the grind button.

    By chance I found this on reddit and thought I'd share it here. Sorry if it's already been shared. It looks perfect for keeping the coffee in the portafilter instead all over the worktop! I'll post an update when mine arrives...

    Well, I'm finding I'm having issues with channelling the coffee. The pour is good until the pressure increases and then I get a right mess! Coffee goes everywhere from all directions!

    My bottomless portafilter arrived today from @CocoLoco recommendation. Looking forward to my afternoon coffee :D

    Aye, I just thought it might take the full 30 mins to get warm enough to actually make a difference to the cup :) Nice idea about putting a mat on the top though, could keep things a bit tidier.

    Hi, So Ive had my Barista Express for a while now and I was just wondering, does anyone actually use the cup warmer on the top? I tend to throw the machine on, wait for the ready lights to come on and pour a beverage. Very rare will I put it on and think, I'll just wait for the cup warmer to...

    Brilliant! Thanks, just ordered so I'll post here once it arrives and let you all know what it's like :)

    Decided to go hunting for a 54mm bottomless portafilter for my Barista Express, found some in China with a delivery date of October! Anyone know of anything more local?

    Hey everyone, Not sure if this is the right place to post this but I couldn't see anywhere else it might fit. I recently dropped one of my coffee cups and I thought I'd buy something new and just wondered what people recommend. I was just using some John Lewis cups, they were a nice size but...

    erm, no idea! Was about 19-20g of ground coffee as I use double shot basket.
  11. Coffee Beans
    They had ran out of espresso bean and so was recommended to try Yirgacheffe and 'it should be fine' was the reply when asked about using it in my espresso machine :) I'll maybe need to tell them it's not fine ๐Ÿคฃ Now on my second V60 of the day and the coffee is GOOOOOD. I live not far from...
  12. Coffee Beans
    Aye :) I had heard great things about them so was really disappointed when I didn't enjoy the coffee. Now I'm making it with the V60, all is good again and it's a nice brew.
  13. Coffee Beans
    Well, after everyones posts I dusted off my V60, ground the beans in my machine on the most coarse settings - as my bean grinder is locked in my office which I've not been in since March!! I didn't expect the taste to be so different! So glad I posted here otherwise I would have binned the...

    They are Yirgachedde Konga Wote beans. Just noticed on the bag it does say Filter Roast! I guess I better grind the beans and throw them in my filter then and see what happens :)
  15. Coffee Beans
    That's a pretty good idea actually!
  16. Coffee Beans
    I recently (at the weekend) thought I'd treat myself and buy an expensive bag of beans, expensive for me anyway, ยฃ12 for 250g bag. I had heard great things about the roaster but honestly, it's a struggle. I don't want to throw the beans out but I really need to physic myself up to drink the...

    I'll maybe start using it, but then again. I tend to keep everything in a separate cupboard anyway :)
  18. Sage Forum
    Thanks @MattLeB - That's handy - bit of strange place to store it though at the back of the drip tray :)
  19. Sage Forum
    Morning! I have been meaning to ask this for a while, what is the second, smaller, drip tray for in the Barista Express? I've never seen any water in it.

    Hi, Thanks for the feedback. I'm using a Sage Barista Express, 54mm portafilter I believe.
