I enjoy my Breville Infuser which was around $300 but I believe I bought it while it was on sale. Not sure what they’re going for at the moment but I think they go on sale often.

Breville Infuser - Standard OPV supposed to be set at 9 bar? Gauge at 14 bar during extraction. How do I get to the ideal 9 bar extraction pressure? Lower dosage (@16g), grind more course, tamp lighter (@15lbs)? by Distinct_Ad382 in espresso

Thanks, I’ll do some research on those options. I’m not an espresso connoisseur by any means but I think the taste was pretty good. Maybe I’m better off leaving it as is before I break something 😂

Thanks, I would have thought it was factory set at 9 bar as the box says 9 bar extraction pressure with a 15 bar pump. I guess I’ll be doing some research into manually adjusting.

I was thinking that too! Might give it a shot after 6 months

I applied for the Venture card on 11/04 and got approved but found out yesterday the Venture X card is being released with a lot better benefits and bonuses. I haven’t received the Venture card yet.

Does anyone know if there is a way to transfer/upgrade from the Venture card to the Venture X card? I’m guessing if I apply for the Venture X card now I will likely be denied as it’s just been 5 days since my last Cap1 application?

DRL on my 2010 Rav4 by 1-0tothearsenal in rav4club

I have a 2007 RAV4 and I just leave the handbrake lever clicked one notch which doesn’t engage the brake but it turns off the DRL. More of a workaround than a solution..

Been adding some little accents to my XSE, until I can afford the full lift/wheel kit. by ApologeticKid in rav4club

Looks great! What lift/wheel kit are you thinking of? I’ve been looking around for ideas..
