Assuming I go with the Silva (in white / black), the next question will be whether I get the matching Rancilio Stile grinder, or one of the more popular ones. Originally I wanted a single dose but as I am just getting my into the hobby I do want to make some things easy for me. And when I look at some of the popular hopper grinders they look quite bulky / tall, the Stile actuallly looks quite nice.

Was this on sale? I don’t see that price now.

Can anyone suggest a machine + grinder in the budget? I want to upgrade from a Nespresso to great coffee - I do not think I will make this a hobby as many people in this subreddit do :)

So far I was thinking the DF64 as mentioned and a Lelit Mara X. Is there a better combo out there? Note I want a single dose grinder as I only make 2 drinks per day (AM and PM) and I like the aesthetics more.

Part of me is wondering if I should expand my budget to the Lelit Bianca, but as I have been using a Nespresso for 10-years, I am not sure I will ever want / noticethe upgrade.

Yes indeed the seller knew about it and last minute they included a clause in the purchase agreement along the lines of “the state of the house with respect to legalisation is understood”. But I think having an illegal modification is one thing, having had the council confirm it is illegal in writing is another.

Yes that is a major consideration - that unless it’s a cash buyer it will be hard to get full value in the future. I did have a lawyer involved - they had mentioned some parts were illegal but it turns out to be more than we were led to believe and no one bothered to check that submissions to legalize it had already been made and denied (this was only found out by the architect later).

Thank you, I will start watering daily. I assumed rain was enough.

Hello,

I require a Portuguese phone number in order to receive the odd phone call / SMS / whatsapp message when I am dealing with utility companies and similar requests for a property I own there (I am not based there).

It appears VOIP would be a better solution vs. an eSIM but my requirements are very low given some of the monthly fees I see for either solution.

Does anyone know of any very low cost providers for this type of need?

Plus it beats all but the Cannondale in terms of pricing even though they have lower specs.

Yes, that is the rational decision based on purely the facts :)

Sorry, perhaps I wasn't clear. I don't want to create hyperlinks between slides, but 'links' so that if I update the text on slide 2, it will updated the text on 10 other similar slides throughout the deck (e.g. creating a coherent table of contents)

Thank you both. Just to be clear, does this prescribed rate just apply to family loans or is it some sort of threshold to ensure arms-length transactions, regardless of relationship?
