    Noticed this evening , that when pulling a shot that it was taking an age for espresso to appear, much longer than before. It was as though that the puck was choking with much reduced flow. I've ended up with going with a coarse grind / no taping to replicate what i've had before. I did try...

    I always felt that my SGP left a mild ' burnt' taste....whereas the Eureka has a much more balanced feel to espresso. Some of the note/characteristics of certain types of coffee, are less muddled, than the SGP.

    I plumped for a Specialita over a Facile/Manual as it has bigger burrs (55mm than 50mm)..and it is apparently quieter. Plus aesthetically, it looks much better with the dosing display....all for the additional outlay of ยฃ70 (or 5 bags of 1 kilo coffee!)

    Hi there, First timer..so please be nice! Picked up a Sage oracle the other day...and everything seems to work ok...apart from intermittent issues when using the single basket. Often I get a 'pre-infusion' pop up which lasts 5 secs...then the machine stops extracting. Sometimes I get a...
