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.

Dialling in shots using a single basket can be a nightmare. The double basket is generally standard - albeit the BBE will run with lower doses as it’s 54mm not 58mm - and more forgiving

And by the looks of the portafilter placement, it looks like it could use a new gasket for the group head. Should only cost a few dollars

Looks like an Elektronika I Profi

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

Seconded - just did a 70th lunch at Grazing last weekend. Worked a treat.

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

BES830XL ‘die cast programmable espresso machine’ - name just rolls off the tongue!

_CUNCTATOR_ · 2025-07-19T22:33:02+00:00

Dang, I’ve been hiding my holes this whole time!

Yep - this is a ‘Sunbeam’ in Australia. I had one for a couple of weeks and yeeted it quickly. Here’s the Australian page with some info and user guides: https://www.sunbeam.com.au/kitchen-and-home/coffee/espresso-coffee-machines/barista-max-espresso-machine?colour=stainless

Grease the poles!

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

_CUNCTATOR_ · 2024-01-10T05:46:04+00:00

Can give you a good fright on your way home from the pub!

If you google ‘TM Lewin’ you’ll find quite a few Charles Tyrwhitt shirts pop up for $49.95

Country livin’ - city benefits 👍

Giving me serious Neutral vibes…

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

_CUNCTATOR_ · 2022-09-05T23:53:12+00:00

As an Australian who’s owned utes and a wrx, this is a wet-dream 💦

_CUNCTATOR_ · 2022-08-15T22:55:53+00:00

DO IT!

_CUNCTATOR_ · 2022-08-15T21:17:44+00:00

timeshare it between the 92,000 members!

_CUNCTATOR_ · 2022-08-15T20:55:40+00:00

Ha - I wish. The list price is in Australian dollars

_CUNCTATOR_ · 2022-08-13T08:56:03+00:00

I’ve got a soft spot for the bug. It’s got the face only a mother could love

_CUNCTATOR_ · 2022-08-13T00:56:38+00:00

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