    Tried once but it's not for me. Bought it from the decent online store

    After loosening the grind to 4.5ish ended up with 18g after 11.5 seconds. Decided just to run with the shot and see how it went. 43g shot after 25 seconds so a bit on the quick side. Surprisingly was quite tasty as a flat white.

    Actually just worked it out (i think). When the grinder first arrived the exit chute plugged completely. I used a pipe cleaner to clear it. I've looked up the exit chute and there are two prongs shaped like lighting that appear to be to break up clumps. These were bent upwards so I've bent them...

    @johnealey is your grinder really clumpy? Never seen clumps this big before.

    A few months. Wow. Just need to run with it. Thanks.

    Thanks. I'm having a bit of inconsistency in dose from the same settings. Sometimes I get 14g and sometimes I get 12g. The hopper is full. I'm guessing this is because the grinder is new and will settle down?

    VST 15g

    Thanks for the replies so far but i've got another question after receiving my grinder and putting 1kg through of old coffee to season the burrs. As i used to single dose i ran the grinder until it was empty. Now with the 65e i'm running with beans in the hopper. I can sit the basket in by...

    My scales are tiny so the pf won't sit on it. Sure its a maximum of 200g as well.

    Hi Today I took the plunge and ordered a eureka zenith 65e from bella barista. I have been using a vario and single dosing 15g into the hopper before every drink. I'd like to start using on demand grinding but not sure of the best way to dial in so would like some advice. When using new beans...

    yeah its like a microfibre cloth. It does have a brand on it but it's not clear anymore due to use!

    Hi In the box for my rocket evo it came with a nice cleaning cloth to keep the machine nice and shiny. Does anybody know where to get more of these cloths or is there something better out there? Cheers Scott

    Hi We've just upgraded from a silvia to a rocket Evo Giotto V2 thanks to Steve at machina espresso and are delighted with the machine but have some questions if anyone can help? 1. Having never had a HX machine before the cooling flush requirement is new to me. I've looked at youtube videos...

    Hi Really considering buying the Brutus IV machine from espresso-machines.nu. I'm concerned over ordering from the Netherlands but have chatted to the guy on whatsapp and they seem OK. The cost from them is £950 delivered instead of £1275 from machina espresso. Has anyone used them before and...
  15. All Grinders & Hand-Grinders
    Hi I've received an encore for brewed coffee only. The recommended setting for french press is 30 but i tried this and its a weak mess. Dropped to 20 today and it was better but not great. I'm using the hasbean brew guide for reference. So i wondered if anyone else was using the encore and...

    Used the encore a couple of times now. The recommended grinder setting of 30 for FP seems way out to me as i got a wattery horrible brew first go (following the hasbean brew guide). Just tried at 20 and its better but probably still not right. Anybody using an encore for FP and at what setting?
  17. Coffee Lounge ☮❤
    After a bit more research and thinking i've ordered an encore for filter duties only. I like the thought of buying a syphon or chemex later in the year to go along with my FP so it's ideal.
  18. Coffee Lounge ☮❤
    Yeah i've recalibrated it a lot in the time i've had it and moving the grind back and forth seems like it might be a pain. It is a good grinder for espresso though. Will need to think if its worth £120 for a second grinder. I suppose it opens up other brewing methods in future without affecting...

    45g of coffee by hand seems like a slog! The bratza encore for £120 looks decent enough.

    I decided to make french press this morning using my mahlkonig vario grinder which is normally setup for espresso. The result was excellent and i'm keen to enjoy this more often. However, going back to where i had the grind set before for espresso resulted in a gusher. I took two more shots to...
