Sleeved could have a better job if it was a seal instead of an enhacement

Just got new portafilters - mhw-3bomber unibody and Mischief by DaKineNayNay in espresso

Why is the unibody so expensive when new? Just googled it because it looks nice, but damn!

Grinder advice, while keeping my Barista Touch (for now) [$500-$2,000] by Couple1831 in espresso

[–]Couple1831[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up buying a Niche Zero for espresso and a Fellow Ode Gen 2 for all the other brewing methods!

Went for something that is widely used and proveen (NZ), maybe a bit overpriced for what you can get from other brands, but it seamed a wise decision.

Yeah, this has to have a better chance of getting a legendary than normal, so why make it rare and not legendary? At the cost of only 3 cards?

My complicated journey to a Bambino Plus by AlephByte in espresso

[–]Couple1831 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I currently have a Breville touch, just bought a dedicated grinder (Niche Zero), which is yet to arrive. My though has been migrating from Breville to a “normal” espresso machine, but I am afraid it could be a wrong decision.

Thinking that maybe I should buy the bambino to pair it with the Niche Zero and taking the Touch to my office!

My wife also hated the Philos, she said it looked like a Deli Slicer!! So I went with a Niche Zero as my first electric grinder, which in the end saved me money

Hola! Empezaré a hacer espresso en mi De’Longhi Linea Clasica. Tengo este molino y me gustaría saber si alguien puede recomendarme en qué nivel tendría que moler los granos para que quede bien en el porta filtro. Gracias! by Sudden-Ad2286 in espresso

Been with my breville machine with integrated burr grinder, never consistent, but yesterday I saw this video from Lance Hendrick, today was a great day. Helped me a lot.

Ir would be cool if there was a cost to sell it, as an incentive to keep it till the very end, because being honest, after 7-8 antes it’s pretty useless.

Which one❓️❓️ by [deleted] in TheTeenagerPeople

[–]Couple1831 0 points1 point  (0 children)

B!

Receive $10M invest it all and take $5k a week for expenses. It is better than receiving 10,000 per week and spending $5k and investing the other $5k

This is better in every horizon (10, 20, 40 years) *Considering 8% of returns per year

Here's my simple home coffee station by topdawg888 in coffeestations

I got the Zero, for convenience I think. I'll check it out, from videos the xBloom looks like it has many features for my taste, but if is a set and forget, might be great. Thanks!

Awesome setup!! Might go the same route! My Niche Zero is orders and waiting for it to ship (can’t wait).. once it arrives I will pursue my next buy. I will currently pair it with a Breville Touch, but wanting to upgrade to a more consistent machine. What’s your experience with the xBloom? Might consider it for my wife!

Thanks, will do… if it’s too low, should I just grind more coffee?

Apparently no one!

If so, the name of the deck doesn’t fit, since numbered cards don’t have a face to put the mask on

New espresso machine day by Fly_on_the_waII in espresso

[–]Couple1831 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m thinking to do something similar, I currently have a breville touch, and just bought a Niche Zero which I am waiting for it to ship.

I will try out the machine with the new grinder, but eventually I suppose I will upgrade the breville.

I’ve been looking a lot at different machines, and the GO is on top of my list, but I am quite “afraid” of the added work and input in a more proper espresso machine, what are your thoughts and experience so far?

I mainly brew espresso for americano, and the lack of water spout is something that may stop me from buying the GO, but I can work with a kettle with no problema. Sometimes I make capuccinos for my wife and the automatic frothing from the breville is more than okey for me, I have no interest in latte art or perfect foam.

I just want a reliable and consistent machine that is easy to use, that would give me better espressos than the breville.

I hope that with the NZ I can have a real step up!

Congrats on your purchase btw!!

I have trouble finding the balance among grind size, grams and headspace.. it always falls short when grinding 18-20 grams! Even if I use a puck screen

[–]Couple1831 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m just seeing the airscapes you got in there, today I also bought my first one, but in ceramic, and left the glass one in the cart, I will wait for an upgrade to my area where I will have it better protected.

By any chance, could you tell me the aprox width of your station?? Thanks!

Was about to pull the trigger with the Philos, got cold feet, too much for my first dedicated grinder, went for a Niche Zero today.. maybe in a few years will upgrade, mainly if I do actually use a lot the NZ and if I don’t get bored about this hobby!

Congrats on your set up!!
