How weird but frankly superb to hear this has turned out so well.

That is incredibly kind

very belated update to this saga.

I finally moved house and on Monday Paul and I managed to liaise for me to pick up the Mythos.

Since I got it home I've changed the burrs (I had an idea that the burrs might be worn and they were), taken the front tamper off and given it a clean.

I've dialled in a few different coffees now but it's not that easy to single dose. I have been looking at solutions like lens hoods and puffers but haven't come to any form conclusions yet.

I have to say the espresso coming out is a totally different from the Sette 270Wi I've been using. The mouthfeel and body is just so smooth and silky. I'm even enjoying my wife's decaf - the first time I've truly enjoyed decaf in my life.

It is big, I would love to make it a bit smaller but I'm not sure I could do that without making it very ugly. My wife doesn't mind the size but she said it looked a bit knackered - fair point tbh.

Anyway, thanks again to @paul whu

He's a lovely chap and really went out of his way for me, a complete stranger. Warms the heart!

She does look a little tired but I reckon with a new lick of pain she would look lovely again.

I will get the case resprayed if I keep it, would make it look a look more palatable.

Does someone on here cut down the hopper and make wooden lids?

That's a lovely coffee (grinder) table you have there! [emoji23][emoji1787][emoji23]

I've thought long and hard about this but I think I'm going to pass on this bargain to someone else. It's just a bit too big for the kitchen, and as I often swap out beans for decaf, the Niche is just a better option for me.

I replaced the tired Mythos burrs with brand new ones, so I'd be looking for £300 all in.

Pick up from London SE27.

If this doesn't get snapped up quickly I'll do a proper for sale advert!

 

[Fez]

I'll take it @Bainbridge

 

[Fez]

Scratch that! Got too excited - thought it was black.. whoops.

Sorry again for the confusion

 

[Bainbridge]

Still available then!

 

[cracked_bean]

Is this still available?

 

[Bainbridge]

Nope this sold a couple of weeks ago
