    Apples and oranges... I love the innovation but see it maturing in a very short space of time and expect V3 will be availble in 18-24 months. This will also have a knock on effect to second hand values of V1 machines more so then a tradition machine of similar age. Maybe Decent will off...

    This is a very good question. I think most of us spending this kind of money in the prosumer category would expect a service life of around 10 years, so Decent will you be able to service my machine in 10 years time? And when do you see it being made obsolete? Personally I think the machine...

    Probably an uneven tamp or cold porta filter... A coffee distribution tool can also help, use it before you tamp for a more consistent pull, it also a good idea to employ the WDT. https://www.bellabarista.co.uk/catalog/product/view/id/3566/s/motta-58mm-coffee-leveling-tool/ I would also...

    I may be interested, can you PM me? A shop I know is looking for one.

    Sorry I missed your post. No I only calibrate when I change burrs, once calibrated the burrs should wear evenly. It does not hurt to check them every 6-12 months depending on the machine and usage. Where are you based?

    Or as one roaster does, repack and sell old beans on Amazon...

    ? Very funny, it's not April the 1st yet! That's a really badly retouched Photoshop image! Nearly as bad as the images in your reviews!
  18. Coffee Beans
