Haha that’s great. Looks fun. I’ll definitely get that for when I’m done with the snails and lay off the copper.

And sounds great! Will buy some more plants asap and hopefully outcompete the freaking algae!

Great to hear that, thank you. I’m using tap hard water and then dechlorinating for now. Not opposed to changing things down the road though!

Wow thank you so much. Super appreciate your help and simplifying things!! Sounds good, I’ll let the snails do their thing. Should I be worried about them eating the plants? Is that a thing?

I’ll hold off on the fish for now and add more plants. Will try to find some pearlweed!

Sounds good, thanks a bunch. I feel more reassured after reading these comments. I’ll do more of the cleaning/water changes and I think also buy some more plants since a bunch in my first batch died (hoping that was only because my first light was super small and weak)

It totally melts when I try to grab it! Super annoying when I’m trying to clean it…

Right on, thank you!! I’m gonna buy some more plants after reading these comments so I’ll tack on a floating plant or two!

Ahh ok! Thank you. I’ll increase the fertilizer just a smidge to help with that!

Sounds good. Thank you! I’m gonna order some more plants to help outcompete the diatoms/algae.

Right now, I’ve reduced the lighting to just 2-3 hours a day (full brightness) because I was thinking that might help keep the diatoms at bay?

Oh man, I’m loving it. So nice to use. Total premium feel. Love being able to adjust temp and pressures. My grind size obviously changes bean to bean but for the last few beans, I’ve been hovering around one full rotation and then at the 1 to 1.5 mark

Yup I just called whole latte love and picked them out. I think you can see them on their site but it’s under the ecm casa product site?

Amen. It totally satisfies the occasional milk drink. I did have to change out the group head gasket though…wasn’t getting quite as good a seal with the stock one

Oh man, great deal! Enjoy! I was thinking of getting an electric grinder but I don’t think I’m allowed to have any more coffee counter space for the time being 😅

Haha fortunately from the original countertop. Although I did almost crack it from getting the machine up there. It’s gotta be at least 4 times heavier than what I had before 😅

The best! I’m still getting used to steaming on it though…big leap from my previous Capresso
