    Cheers, and completely understand the refusal I am giving it some more thought!
  2. Sold
    My offer was ยฃ400, personally for me much above that starts straying too close to the potentially available new prices and benefits they present. Thanks and apologies for the infringement!
  3. Sold
    My apologies, I will do. For reference I have PM'd an offer significantly different from the very fair price posted. Didnt want to hamper any future sale chances by crowding the thread with it. If thats against the rules then apologies, and will add it on to the thread as well.
  4. Sold
    Hi, Not been on the forum for ages, I am interested in this but would be looking to make you what you might call a cheeky offer!? Are you flexible on the asking price, or should I say how flexible are you on asking price

    Ahhhh the quandary! Given the fact their service has been poor rather than really rubbish or anything I think it's probably unfair to name them. Plus things are ongoing... If they get worse and annoy me more then I will name and shame!

    Apologies if this is in the wrong place but seemed the best fit... I wanted to let the world know about some above and beyond service I recent received... Spreading the love as it were. Before Christmas I placed two orders from well known coffee suppliers one being Square Mile who I ordered a...

    Hi all, Apologies Christmas gets in the way as always... This is still available, and I have added some further photos to aid ageing below, I know the lever is newer than the rest of the machine but will let you all decide the rest. As I said still available and if there is no real interest in...

    Whoops, sorry and thanks. Consider my wrists slapped!

    Hi all, I recently acquired a yellow Caravel Arrarex in semi working condition to obtain one of the accessories that came with it. Having now served it's purpose its up for sale, as much as I would like to keep it there is no reason to. Having given it a quick going over it is now in full...

    Mmmm good idea, I am sure air is caught in the group but a negligible amount due to the hole/O-ring in the base of the piston I suppose. Although guess the water can't rise significantly higher than the actual tank level which may prove an interesting test... regardless I imagine the fact the...

    Ok random weigh everything experiment says I'm not loosing anything... Total water output to cup (including prolonged drip catching) was 14.3g Total water left behind in grind etc was 13.9g making a total water through machine of about 28g which is pretty close to my calculated 25g + whatever...

    Hi all, sorry a busy week turned into two... Anyway am back on my espresso exploration and have measured the 'potential' output. As caravel owners know there is no resistance till the half way pulled point, this is due I guess to the holes to the boiler. So I measured from the point these are...

    Hey sorry busy couple of days of work... So yes I reckon calculating the potential max volume would be easy enough.. Position piston so it's blocking off the chamber holes and measure the remaining volume (fill with water and weigh or similar?) Then add some for portafilter/per infusion soak...

    Cheers for that. I have seen it before but can't remember if it was through here or not. That mod remains a possible as does the German naked one which will also need some tweaking. A combination of lack of funds and time mean they will have to wait for a while either way. So for now I'm...
  17. Lever Forum ๐Ÿ’ช
    Thats a fair point currently my procedure is this... Turn everything on and wait for it to come up to temp, pull a shot of hot water to flush things through, dry cup and basket then grind dose tamp etc back together check temp (by this time water temp has often dropped a bit) so I nudge...

    Ok think I am either making progress or going in circles so opinions welcome lol. Fairly happy with the grind now having nudged it a bit coarser still I can now pull a shot at reasonable speed/resistance and while the crema is still not perfection it's the best I have had yet with a bit more...
  19. Lever Forum ๐Ÿ’ช
    Yeah I'm kind of forgetting the crema for now as to be honest I have only had two sink shots out of all the experiments although none have been spectacular but we all chase the god shot! A bigger basket I think would help but there is no reason I can't make this work?! The PV portafilter tweak...
