    That looks like an SM90 which is an excellent 64mm flat burr grinder. Yours seems to be a more recent one as it has the portafilter fork from the current SM92 as well as a similar later grind setting ring. They're far better built than many grinders and are relatively quiet too as the motor is...

    Now you're asking a bit much!! Instagram?๐Ÿ˜‚ Would love to see pics though, fancy one of these.

    This is lovely, let me know if you ever make one for a pre-millenium Pavoni!

    Boxing Day! Which asks the question,did you look into boxing it up and shipping at all or is it just a bit too awkward? Up in Edinburgh so couldn't collect.

    (Sorry thought I'd replied to this but obvs not!) Yes, think it was the same one. It seems in nice shape, only my inability so far restricting a decent coffee! It's hard to judge pressure so I can see why people add pressure gauges to the piston.

    Not looking for anything fancy but has anyone got a tamper to fit a pre millennium La Pavoni Pro? Basically a 49 or 49.5mm one I think the measurements are? Basket seems to be ~50mm measured. ...and if anyone has a bottomless portafilter for it too.....

    I'm looking for a rotary on/off switch to replace a timer switch. The genuine one I think is a Gottak 4RH but can't find one in the UK. Need a double pole ~10-16A 250VAC Ideally a shaft of 4mm square or 6mm round/D shape. Mounting spacing of 28mm (but can make an adapter if not). Anybody got...
  8. All Grinders & Hand-Grinders
    Ah, that's a lovely combo, you definitely need a grinder to match those two. Actually looking for a small lever at the moment so if I see a Eurobar in those colours it'll be a definite buy. The Arduino stuff in the grinder itself is super simple with a single button control on the Casadio...

    On to number 2 refurb yesterday, madness prevails. I A la San Marco SM90A 64mm burr grinder. This one is already stripped and the carcass will be off for blasting and repaint. Once it's back it'll be rebuilt without the doser and it'll have Arduino control. The main on off will stay but...

    Hi Paul, Did the grinder sell? I'm a bit closer and could pick up as in Edinburgh.

    Got it tested (brew trialled) and tasted OK but grind size still a little inconsistent. Taking it apart looks like there's been some slight damage to the burrs in one area which may mean that section is letting through larger grinds. New burrs on order so will all be sorted soon. Thanks for...

    I've been lacking on getting filters for this so far so haven't been back to have a proper play. Think I may be inheriting the thing as I'm not sure his better half is going to allow it back due to the sheer size. @garydyke1 : would you be able to say what the grind size on the coarsest...

    Good stuff, didn't have time to get filters today so will give it a try tomorrow. Shame I didn't have my Kickstarter seives yet, would have been a good start! All makes sense of course, just a bit surprised by the huge particle sizes at first.
  14. Mahlkรถnig Grinders
    Yes, was first port of call. As for brews, I don't actually have the equipment to filter etc. The owners description suggests under extraction (weak & watery) on the finest setting but maybe have to run a few cups myself. Could just be that boulders sized in mm are the norm for this machine as...

    I wonder if anyone on here has any experience of grinding on the FCG 2.0 or 6.0? I've been handed a 2.0 by a friend who bought it used without really knowing what it was (or how BIG!) but as he drinks filter more, thought it would be better for his needs. It looks like it works fine until you...

    Edinburgh for sleeping and Glasgow (Scotstoun) for working, hence the coffee for the M8 in the mornings!

    Hello all, Found my way here through the Kickstarter campaign for the Rafino system which I'll hopefully be using to calibrate my grinder for both use and different beans. That's the theory anyway. I'm in the 'Keep it Simple' camp so mostly it's black coffee all the way and I've found I like...

    Hi there, This is my first post here, found the forum through the Kickstarter. Interesting place you have here, I'm learning a hell of a lot. I've gone for the Barista plus top sit alongside my LaSanMarco grinder as a calibration device mainly. Might change my mind but life's a bit too short...
