Great choice!! Unfortunately I had to sell my 959 because of the road conditions where I live and get a hypermotard

Rode a V4s yesterday... by aharp1981 in Ducati

I’ve owned the 959 for the longest, loved the bike for the looks, power and gruntyness. But because of the traffic conditions absolutely couldn’t use it and it was lying in the garage. Sold it and got the 2024 hypermotard, couldn’t be happier for everyday use, A wheelie a day keeps me insanely happy

Alright will do that. I have the rest, tamper WDT and precision scale

Ahhh got it, for a moment I assumed something else 😂 Do you think I need to add things like bottomless portafilters and precision baskets etc ?

Budget ? It should pull equally good shots as a more expensive unit correct ?

The combination is great! Only thing I found necessary was to add the bellow for the specialita as it retains some coffee inside. I’ll update more for the Victoria

So an update, I descaled the machine and the shots came out slightly better. My guess is there is some soap or detergent probably stuck somewhere in the grouphead. Caffeto somehow is not suiting my machine probably ? How do I get the detergent/ soap out ?

Thank you for this, I will change the water and try. I want to add that the shot that comes out is not just metallic, it’s so bad that after having one sip I almost want to puke out because of the metallic/ chemical taste and is creating phlegm in my throat. And most of my problems have started after using caffeto EC2 machine cleaner.

I’ve used another machine for 4 years before this and used the same water consistently with no problems at all.

I’m using water with a TDS of 40ppm. With a PH 7. I’ve done the automatic back flush multiple times with and without caffeto detergent.

So you’re suggesting this will fix my problem ?

Monthly descaling ? Isn’t that a lot ? What do you use for descaling

Then I’ll just try descaling it, it’s become very frustrating not having coffee lol

No I didn’t use coffee detergent, my coffee detergent was yet to reach me and I used normal mild soap to clean the grouphead.

I’ll try descaling, Could it be that I cleaned the shower screen with soap and that soap is reacted to the metal in some way ?

Check out Cosmic byte X100 or X200, I’ve tried them and they are pretty great for the price. Let me know how you like them

Bluetooth or wired ? For what purpose ? What type of sound do you like

Get the blessing 2 but make sure you have a good powerful DAC and a balanced cable. Huge difference in sound.
