  1. 🪛🔧 Technical | Faults | How-to's ❓ℹ
    Thanks for the opinions everyone. I decided to keep the machine and used the voucher to buy a knock box, an aeropress and a porlex mini grinder to use with the aeropress (hopefully that will give me an idea of what my coffee is supposed to taste like, plus make me longer, easier to prepare...
  2. 🪛🔧 Technical | Faults | How-to's ❓ℹ
    It's an €80 voucher, not partial refund. Taking that into account it would mean I paid around 225GBP. With the price and condition they go for used on eBay, approaching £200 and with leaks and parts rusted through if someone offered me a new one with the base detached for £225 I'd have snapped...
  3. 🪛🔧 Technical | Faults | How-to's ❓ℹ
    I bought a Europiccola from maxicoffee.com and it arrived earlier this week, but when I unpacked it the black plastic base was not attached to the main base of the unit: From what it looks like to me it wasn't welded on properly and doesn't look like it has been banged/dropped - the...

    I guessed as much but after several problems with my last bank anything more complicated than a debit card transaction and I break out in a nervous sweat. Anyway, I certainly believe I have paid. Good luck everyone.

    I can't fit "LIMITED" into the payee name section when I try to set up a payee. Is it OK to leave that off? don't want the money to disappear into the ether!
  6. Coffee Lounge ☮❤
    So... If someone uses a single basket and say 9g of coffee they'd only get out 18g of espresso. That's like 3 teaspoons. What on earth does anyone do with that and what happened to 7g of coffee for 30ml (yes I know volume isn't the best measure but this is the ratio I always used to hear) for...

    I like espresso black or in a milk based drink, black never with sugar. If it's a nice milky drink I won't add sugar if it's less nice I'll add sugar to liven it up. Hopefully when I finally get a machine my milkies won't need sugar to mask my complete lack of skill! I'd rather have tea than...

  9. eBay Auction and Gumtree Links 🎲💰
    I'm getting sick of looking at these on eBay. Everyone says they'll last a lifetime, but every other listing is leaking, rusted or otherwise worrisome. I suppose it's wishful thinking to hope if I bought a new one they'd have better build quality?
  10. Coffee Accessories
    It really appeals to me as a bit of kit but I know nothing about grinders so I'm purely swayed by the advertising. Wouldn't a hand grinder potentially be better than motor driven as you are grinding more slowly so not heating the beans up as much? I've read that's one of the benefits of the more...
  11. Coffee Accessories
    This is £7.50 including delivery on Amazon Marketplace. It's 20x15cm and sold by coffee hit. That's not a recommendation though - it's just a plain slab of... something black. (Edit: that something black is probably rubber and may smell bad. Probably not such a bargain)A fancier one is £9.95...

    "This listing was ended by the seller because the item was lost or broken" weird. Wonder what's going on there?

    I'd love to know who comes up with the idea of a dog narrating a cooking show. I bet it wasn't coffee jelly they were on at the time.
  14. Expobar Forum
    I'm still deciding on which machine/grinder to buy - my cupboards only have 42cm clearance which knocks out most grinders and a surprising number of coffee machines too, and any that do fit would still greatly benefit from anything I can do to make filling them easier.

    How do you run off a water bottle? Does it need some sort of pump in it?
  16. Coffee Lounge ☮❤
    I've seen videos online that show you can just run it without a capsule in to deliver hot water.
  17. 👋 Introductions 👋
    That all sounds very interesting. Do you have a link to the music you make, that you'd like to share? I love listening to what people come up with.
  18. All Grinders & Hand-Grinders
    There's nothing wrong with a two month wait... if they tell you there is a two month wait. Preferably before you buy it. Being a small business I could excuse the delay but there's no excuse for bad service and communication.
  19. Coffee Beans
    seems like a great idea - I was just reading a post by xpenno saying it's hard to discuss coffee (as opposed to machines) as people are rarely drinking the same been, at same freshness etc. so a forum bean could work like a book club - everyone discussing and enjoying the same thing at the same...

    -I think being able to pause (rather than cancel and resubscribe) a subscription is really useful as you may have a holiday, other beans to use etc. -I don't think you necessarily have to be able to choose specific coffees as it's nice to be pushed toward something you wouldn't necessarily buy...
