    Thanks all for your helpful advice. I ended up (accidentally!) hijacking another thread talking about the Minima about 3 weeks ago and a lot has happened coffee-wise for me since then. I have ended up with a Bianca bought from BB, a Niche Zero on back order (for delivery in Oct), a 1zpresso JX...

    Haha, yes have to admit to not reading your post carefully enough...apologies. Looks like hand grinder might have to be the way to go, so far the shots are too fast even with playing with the paddle and there doesn't appear to be too much wrong with my puck prep

    So I have had a bean to cup for 5 years or so and have loved the ease and convenience but have decided that life is too short for mediocre coffee and that I should start to put in more effort to get some truly enjoyable drinks. I tend to have 3-4 coffees a day and 1 or 2 of these would be milk...

    Been researching machines for a week or so and kept on finding links back to this forum so it seemed like the place to be! Was a long time user of the Aeropress (office coffee was awful!) and bought a decent enough bean to cup machine for the home about 5 years ago. Has served me well (and is a...
