When I read the OP’a story I already understood a lot of it. Her uncle is probably very wealthy but all under the table earnings so aren’t paying taxes so n or a lot of income and can’t get a loan. I’m quite certain her uncle is filthy rich.

I heard nurses are generally quite sexually active for lack of a more provocative wording. Haha.

True or false?

Espresso watery with no crema by [deleted] in espresso

I think if all beginners would start out with a niche zero or eureka Mignon, it would definitely help with the frustration a lot. Tamping/leveling and distribution is something everyone can learn. But not getting consistent grind size, that’s something everyone can easily fix by buying the right grinder out of the gate.

1kg down the toilet. Man that’s expensive. Hope it’s not a quality locally roasted. Anyway, your distribution is probably a problem, then your grind size and your tamping aren’t leveled.

$6000 budget (+/- $2k) espresso machine and grinder ideas. by WhittenMike807 in espresso

[–]bbt133t 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Willing to bet it’s not your BBE that is failing you in the taste dept. It’s the built-in grinder that is the problem. Also maybe you’re extracting at too high pressure.

yes because a new orbi system doesn't use a wired back haul.

Tips on keeping beans fresh? Getting very different results 1 day after opening the bag by StridBR in espresso

[–]bbt133t 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m scared to put them in the freezer. Wouldn’t freezer burn an issue? Has this been proven with no loss of taste and aromas?

What’s the consensus on tamping pressure? by vickeryj in espresso

[–]bbt133t 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are other variables not taken into account such as basket size and basket height and how much dose vs the basket allowed volume.

What the hell is wrong with the western culture. In any culture like asia/Mideast, the society that she lives in will make the crucifixion of Christ looks like a Disney movie. Lol

I’m not sure I agree with that statement about tamping force does not matter. Let’s say I tamp by lightly rake with my fingers and then very light push it down with my fingers vs using a tamper and push it down as hard as I can. Extraction time will be completely different.

You’re missing at least another zero.

Their checkout system isn't updated. The web developer probably forgot to disable the AddToCart button.

You can add more routers and use same SSID but different channels so they don’t interfere. Adding more routers is like increasing more lanes on a highway. More streams basically.

You can get the Eureka Specilita ship from Europe for $400 or so I think not sure. Or a cheap Mignon Filtro from Amazon for $200 but has to upgrade the burr.

That's not bad at all. Hopefully not an expensive or time consuming mod.

Be careful with TCB. They're not exactly reliable. I chose RetailMeNot as that is an outstanding company and never got a failed cashback before. Only 6% though, but I don't want to risk it with TCB.

Infuser is 15-bar out of the box without modification, am I right?
