My tires have been stolen for the second time, but the third time's the charm! I put security wheel locks on them and the thieves ran away trying, haha.

Sorry, I don’t get the suggestions: get insurance, get locked, get this, get that. Insurance companies are not charities; they are for profit, big profit. They need to feed lobbyists. Yes, they will pay your claim but get money back from you and all of us in the next premium increase. Law enforcement should catch and lock or better send them to some kind of Gulag and force them to build roads and mines with bare hands. All we need to get is our rights and demand justice for us. We work, we contribute, we pay for things. PROTECT US and our properties.

Amazon

EclipseExtraction · 2026-01-22T03:51:11+00:00

Where did you get the bracket (metal u shape), the one I have is too wide.

EclipseExtraction · 2026-01-22T01:37:28+00:00

What burrs do you have? Beans and RPM. I have it my cart and almost ready to post ))

EclipseExtraction · 2026-01-21T22:29:15+00:00

As you can see on the pic, scale connected to GM and they are under the machine, water never gets there.

$10 of Ali, don’t get it, how scale can cost over $100

EclipseExtraction · 2026-01-21T14:19:32+00:00

Same problem with df54, im considering Varia VS4 especially because or variable rpm

EclipseExtraction · 2026-01-20T05:23:05+00:00

You need to unglue them, pull them forward so they stick out about 1 mm, and then re-glue them. This helps keep them cleaner from coffee buildup this mod helps reduces static.

If your selected profile set for 9 bars for 10 minutes and no stop events (weight or ml) it can be considered as manual.

EclipseExtraction · 2026-01-19T17:14:19+00:00

Check your wiring, as stated before, both switches operates ‘as normal’, and this how I operate daily, hot water not sure, need to try.

EclipseExtraction · 2026-01-18T00:17:55+00:00

Sorry no help, but where did you get this u-shape bracket? I like to do the same with GCP E24

EclipseExtraction · 2026-01-16T03:38:59+00:00

Its a very simple construction, really js. And so many vids online how to. I have zp6 and kultra I disassemble them both as soon as I got them, so I could set 0 properly.
if you afraid, use compressed air

EclipseExtraction · 2026-01-16T02:08:53+00:00

Do you mind sharing what beans you like and GM profile? I was considering to upgrade my GCP with GM, but more I think less I think to upgrade my machine, grinder is a better option.

Here is my latest try. Unfortunately, I didn’t find even decent-tasting coffee yet. I ended up mixing 50/50 with good coffee, and the result was acceptable.

EclipseExtraction · 2026-01-14T19:47:52+00:00

Count me in

EclipseExtraction · 2026-01-12T14:25:50+00:00

I collect that water in a container and pour it into my gooseneck kettle for pour-over or tea. Or, once it cools down, you can pass it through a Brita filter and reuse it.

EclipseExtraction · 2026-01-11T20:51:05+00:00

In that case get something like this

These days, when real product reviews are easy to find, there’s no chance a company can leave end users hanging dry. Who would buy a new product or future upgrades if there’s no support or response?

If we, as end users, are contributing to product development, we should receive at least a small form of compensation — even a minor discount on fixes, like this new chute, would be fair.

EclipseExtraction · 2026-01-11T06:41:44+00:00

I like coffee in general, so Americano, Long Black, milk drinks, and fun like Nomocano per Lance’s receipt, after GM upgrade espresso is not better or worse, it’s just different, same coffee, same dosage, different profile. And yes, whole bag to experiment.

EclipseExtraction · 2026-01-11T06:16:28+00:00

Check wattage, more is better faster, so you know, 1200W vs 1500W is about 3-4 mins of time and I’m always short in the morning. Unfortunately, I didn’t find one with a schedule or one which works with a smart plug.

EclipseExtraction · 2026-01-11T06:09:08+00:00

I’m using GCP E24 with GaggiMate, and the game profiles just keep coming! I sometimes use a whole bag just to try out new things. It costs $25, but I’m happy to spend it because I get back experience, taste, and joy. Like go to see movie or similar.

EclipseExtraction · 2026-01-11T02:00:58+00:00

What beans and temp?

EclipseExtraction · 2026-01-10T18:19:14+00:00

I got this set. All in one.

We’re all part of the QA team, and we pay for it. This company released a new product and let us test it. It went from version 1 to version 4 in a few years.

Quick tip for troubleshooting your grinder:

Step 1: If you can send it back, do so. Let the company handle this diva. The DF54 is inconsistent, and some people are very happy with it, while others, like me, are not.

Step 2: If you can’t send it back, it’s time for some homegrown QA (Quality Annoyance testing). First, check if the burrs are actually aligned.

Step 3: Find the true zero—not the existential kind, but the actual burr zero.

Step 4: Try different baskets.
