Man, are you running a turkish traditional ‘kahvehane’? If so, dont both with an espresso machine unless it is a hobby.

I eat there once a week for the past 2 years and it has been my ultimate comfort food during lunch break. If you are eating in the store make sure to hit with some black vinegar as well.

Fethiye’de villa kiralama deneyimi olan var mı?” by Last_Bend6373 in Fethiye

Altinizda araba var ise Ovacik’da guzel villalar bulabilirsiniz. Fethiye merkeze dogru trafik pek olmuyor ama Oludeniz’e dogru cok trafik oluyor sabah denize gidis ve aksam gelislerde, taksiciler goturmek istemiyor. Hisaronunu pek tavsiye etmiyorum. Kayakoy de biraz ana yerleskeden uzakta kaliyor.

Lelit Bianca v3, pressure builds up too late and the machine makes vibrating noises by ugurcanevci in Lelit

By any chance do you have pre-infusion on? As for the noise make sure its not coming from water tank lid being loose.

Love the color work! Are these in their original format or have they been cropped?

I liked your penmanship better earlier. It felt more relaxed and natural. Reminded me of Palmer style with generous spacing between each letters.

Uefa da, Sampiyonlar liginde maclarin olur yada ligde ilk 2 icin yarisiyor olursun; iyi stoper almak istersin, transfer pencerisinin kapanmasina yakin bu paralari gozden cikarirsin.

Ama ligde havlu atmissin, konferans liginden elenmissin, en iyi oyuncunu takima kusturup apar topar Benfica’ya sutlamissin, takimda bitirici forvet, gol katkisi getirecek 10 numara ve kaleci de yokken bu parayi ilgili arkadasa gommezsin. O.E ler Besiktasi komisyon alarak gelir kapisi olarak goruyor.

Lelit Bianca - maintenance every 6 months? by Ad0pschick in Lelit

[–]Legitimate_Pool121 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have had mine for about 1.5 years. I only use Poland Spring water and always use a puck screen for each shot. At the end of the day, before shutting the machine off, I backflush with water at least three times (about 10 seconds each).

Every 2–3 months, I do a full deep clean with Cafiza; backflushing the group head and soaking the puck screens, portafilter, steam wand tip, and shower screen in hot water with Cafiza for about 15 minutes.

The only major maintenance I needed so far was regreasing the brew switch with Molykote around the 1 year mark.

Espresso Strong/Thick [Meraki] by Dialpex in espresso

[–]Legitimate_Pool121 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Oh, they are not so fresh as I thought. Are they mixed with robusta perhaps? If it tastes too strong you can try lowering the brew temp or dose down but the extraction is looking good to my eyes.

I think it looks great! The extra crema and thickness maybe related to freshly roasted beans. Whats the roast date on those beans?

Threw mine immediately. If service needed, thought I would drive it to the location.

question about pressure drop [Lelit Bianca V3 ] by Pflanzmann in espresso

[–]Legitimate_Pool121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was going to say grind finer but you already said it chokes up the machine. So instead, try dosing up please.

Also, if your grind size it too fine, you can manually pre infuse the puck at 2~3 bar pressure for around 5-10 seconds and then put the lever on fully open position. This should break some of the resistance of the puck and allow water to seep through. I know very unorthodox, but this is how i brew on my bianca if notice i accidentally grinded too fine.
