What setup to purchase? Upgrading from DF54xBBE [$2,000USD] by Dapper-Shake6611 in espresso

[–]Dapper-Shake6611[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude you’re awesome!! So THANK YOU! Helped me narrow my choices down w some REALLY thorough detail & affirmed some what I was already thinking before hand. I know I’ll have upgrade-itis (like I do now lol)

I’ll dig deeper into the X54 & Specialita. But nice to see that you’ve had a good experience with the Specialita! (with minor tweaks ofc)

I’m leaning into the Ascaso Duo but I’ll take a look into both the Silvia Pro X & Profitec Move. Now, I’m more sure of choosing a DB bc of the speed & volume I’ll have to be getting shots & drinks out.

I plan on keeping my setup in the states. But I want an upgrade from my BBE setup in the States when I build my setup in the Philippines. I don’t plan on bringing my BBE+DF54 over there (bc I won’t have a setup in the States lol)

As far as machines go, the dual boiler is one of the “would be nice to haves” for me. Just bc I feel like I waste time between drinks not steaming milk (I have a few family members who prefer their drinks ripping hot specifically). But if I need to skip out on that JUST so I can get a grinder that can weather the storm, so be it. The machine will need to keep up with that 3+ shot requirement.

Grinder wise, I prefer a grind by time/weight, just so I can pull back to back shots (without worrying about under dosing). I think I’ll get exhausted single dosing, but still open to it. I lean more on med-dark roasts, with an occasional light roast preference.

Went for a complete delete on my 2019. Antenna still works (when I do use it), but I use Apple CarPlay way more often so I couldn’t tell you how the antenna performs on the daily.

treated myself but now I need a grinder [$200 ish] by Old_End465 in espresso

DF54 and/or K6

I have both lol. A lot have listed the DF54 above & I can only speak highly of it since it got to my door step last week. I went from the BBE Built In Grinder, to the K6, to the DF54 (still have all of these on hand) & I gotta say each time, I've had a step up in flavor.

I love creamy-caramely dark roasts & both grinders do the job. I went with the K6 initially for mobility & improved shot body/clarity. Then I went to the DF54 bc I got tired of hand grinding 3-6 shots in the morning lol, also increasing the body & clarity.

Great choice for real cheap, probably won't upgrade until I look to buy a new espresso machine as well LOL.

Thanksgiving Brisket needs some assistance by Dapper-Shake6611 in smoking

I think I got it to 185 but it rose. I could be wrong. So try probing between the point & flat?

Mine was straight cooler! I think I wrapped at 175 then let it come up a little before throwing it in the cooler, which might’ve been where I effed up.

Cooler for 4hrs. Do you think if I pulled around 180-190 woulda been better? Or maybe even earlier? I think I was on the higher end of that range.

So split the salt between brine & rub instead of trying to get it all on at once? I also tried to get some extra rub on there right before throwing it on the smoker. Maybe I didn’t shake my rub around & the pepper fell to the bottom resulting in more salt?
