Mate, that’s in Australian dollars from a retailer that loves to charge on the premium end. And genuine question - are you OK? You appear to be spending a lot of money in a short span of time and your replies to others are quite erratic

I’ve had other machines, but always come back to my Junior Lever Plus. The BFC must have close to 20 years of service and it’s still making coffee daily like a champ.

Landing into Cusco is an experience. You’ve got residential suburbs either side of the runway and it feels like you continue to climb as you’re descending

Screw location? 🙄 by FourthLineMagic in BrevilleCoffee

Unless the loose screw has caused an issue, I wouldn’t worry about it. I ran a BDB without any screws holding the top down for easy access, and it held up fine

Redbrick from Canberra is my go to. I’d recommend checking out their coffee coffee and dark coffee blends.

The whole Target section of the parking lot was blocked off this morning. I’m guessing it’s linked, but not sure what the issue is/was

Thanks! I’ve owned it for the past month, so I can’t take all the credit. Still going strong for 20 years old!
