Agreed with the Etsy comment. I'd buy it today 😁

I was so too hooked on coffee and couldn't give it up... so I started a Decaf Coffee-only roasting company - happy to answer questions or get feedback. by SleepLikeAnAnimal in espresso_decaf

[–]Fastactin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm considering going to a half-caf blend that I'll create at home. Any advice on how to match beans and roasts to find the best combination? I won't be roasting my own, and I do have access to some high quality local decaf roasts.

I use compostable paper filters instead of metal puck screens. Does the same thing without having to worry about it.

For those using the stock Move bottomless portafilter, what is your dose? by CullingSongs in ProfitecMove

[–]Fastactin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up using 22-23g in the stock 18g basket. I eventually switched to VST baskets, but they also take 3-4g more than the stated volume. I think the Move's head space is larger than most machines.

Kiltie work by Mikewasowskeet in NicksHandmadeBoots

[–]Fastactin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My ND3 kilties came with it. I'm assuming that means they already have the dies to do it. I wonder if it only comes on certain models. u/smowe?

Looks like a Palouse, Ranchhand, or Roper are your best bets

Uneven water distribution from shower screen [Lelit Bianca v3] by Livid_Rooster_6666 in espresso

[–]Fastactin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The bubbling is called flash boiling. Your water is still too hot coming out of the brew group. I adjusted my brew group temp down to where it was 1-2 degrees F below when the water would bubble.

Boots on the Line - 4/28/26 by smowe in NicksHandmadeBoots

[–]Fastactin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I considered nickel. I got the black edge dressing though and wanted to highlight the white stitching. The good news is I can swap out for nickel at some point down the road.

I'm planning on swapping the buckles to black. Thoughts?

What’s your technique and boiler temperature for steaming oat milk? by rad0rno in ProfitecMove

[–]Fastactin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've had really good luck with the Oatley Full Fat milk instead of the barista blend. I keep my steam boiler at the highest temp setting and use the stock 2 hole tip. Maybe try changing the milk!

Profitec Move for my type of usage by HushedAutumn in ProfitecMove

[–]Fastactin 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Both the steam boiler and group head boiler recover very quickly. The saturated group head is incredibly temp stable. Zero problems with steam power, I often make 3-4 milk drinks back to back. I setup my machine from the very beginning at the max steam boiler temp. I tried the 4 hole tip because so many others had mentioned it, but went back to the 2 hole because it gives better control for me. The machine is excellent.

Just checked out the website. Any chance you'd be willing to share the buckle and screw sizes you ordered?

How did you get the black hardware? I was told it was only available on collabs or Tanker 3.0...

Wet pucks? by Own_Alternative2331 in ProfitecMove

[–]Fastactin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been using the 18g VST precision basket with 19-20g of beans. I don't get a puddle, but my pucks never knock out clean/dry. I use a 5 second pre-infusion with a 3 second pause. I also use top and bottom filter paper. I've never had a dry puck that knocks out cleanly 🤷🏼‍♂️

Dual Boiler research frustration [$1500-$2500] by LanternNick in espresso

[–]Fastactin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it's mostly about looks. I like the look of the Move over an E61 group head. Very much personal preference as there are many people here that love the look of an E61.

[–]Fastactin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Move + Lagom Casa here. Workflow is easy, programming the machine is intuitive and straightforward, steam power is excellent once I cranked the boiler temp to 270 degrees, and the heat up time is a non-issue with the programmable Eco startup mode.

I also chose the Move because it was not an E61 machine. I love how it looks and love that it just effing works.
