    Tried that old trick, ran out of washing up liquid 😀

    Definitely embarrassed now. It was my technique after all. Six pints of milk later, it's getting to be something like. Who says you can't teach an old dog new tricks, or re-learn old ones 🤗

    I've just swapped my faulty Sage DB for a ECM Mechanika VSlim. No matter what I try I can't get a decent microfoam. I haven't really had a problem since before I fitted a Silva wand to my Gaggia classic back in 2011. I've always used skimmed milk and had various machines with much success...

    My Sage DB replacement, a ECM mechanika slim 😀
  5. Coffee Accessories
    Just ordered the ECM Mechanika V slI'm. I decided to go for the relatively simple HX machine with hopefully easier servicing and parts availability 🤞

    I agree mine was under the 3 year warranty.

    I rang Lakeland at 9am to report that my Sage DB was faulty and gave them my receipt details they said they would verify same and get back to me. I received a call at 12:30 saying it was sorted and could I return the machine, I explained that it could be dropped off at my local Lakeland. By...

    I agree completely, I used a filter and bottled water 👍

    Well Lakeland certainly came up trumps, I rang this morning at 9 had my refund by lunchtime, no quibbles, fantastic service. Thinking a call to Bella Barista might be in order, but welcoming any ideas.

    As regards the temperature anomaly, unusually or not it only has to happen once and to keep heating up, circa 106degrees unless turned off at the plug seems a little dangerous. My machines are regularly descaled and back flushed. I only use volvic anyway. The machine is over two years old so the...

    My Sage DB is playing up the temp is all over the place. The thing is as its till under warranty from Lakeland 🤞. Do I I change it while I have the chance and what for. Essentials are good steaming as we drink predominantly milk based drinks and reliability, easy servicing. My budget is another...

    Sorry for this but a change of tack. I've just been furloughed so I've had time to make a bit of room in the workshop. So.... Cherub and grinder still on offer for collection only but not so time constrained. So serious interest for collection please. Gaz

    Coffee machine had a pressure leak and it's been sitting in the workshop for a year good for spares or someone more competent than me to repair. Grinder was working well last time it was used, it's got a hopper, no conversion. Both free to a good home ASAP please. Collection only (North...

  17. Sage Forum
    So how often would you think, also I was thinking of using the Puly descaler if need be, he said this would be ok?
  18. Sage Forum
    I had the White glove service around the other day, he said to descale my dual boiler every 4 weeks as "the pipes are very fine on these" this seemed excessive to me. I'm using Waitrose essentials water. Can someone suggest a descale regime
  19. Coffee Accessories
    On my Sage the tamper is fixed magnetically. Maybe a neodymium magnet superglue somewhere?
