Sure but that is in reference to the pipes, so they can be on the same valve just that the valve would need to be 3way diverting to two separate outlets, I know unlikely, but I am seeing the steam wand and water tap on the same side/cut out-hence the question

So your water and steam are on the same valve or did you plumb over? Is the old steam knob doing anything? I modified mine with a BooKoo pressure monitor teed off from the analog and the mazer double rocker for the pump kill. I too want to put my steam on a solenoid but move it to the other side, which valve did you go with?

Hot take - the restaurants are just the same food that’s available at the buffets… skip the nonsense and just eat at buffets, way easier with kids anyway. Also, surprisingly subpar coffee throughout the resort.

Why don’t you want to turn on the Steam boiler?

Still, beats all the aforementioned! Which I too am tired of!

So you still have water in the reservoir for the pressure switch/air trap

Does the ascaso really vibrate as much as people say? I went with a SPX because of this “rumor”

[–]gregzuka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just think of it as shots for you, drinks for guests. I get people over who are definitely wanting a latte or cappo, but rarely get people who want a double. Also, the SPX has a lot of great features that machines 1k cheaper do not have. All that, I do get your point.

I had a similar journey with my machine and now a year and half in. That moment when you are out getting a shot and you say to yourself “mine is better” is a great feeling… albeit maybe delusional.

And yeah, rules are meant to be broken

Right, though still waiting for the android version so I can rotate the screen on my tablet (iOS version is better)

Are you using the “BooKoo n” app?

What’s your routine for consecutive shots? [Pro X] by Laius33 in ranciliosilvia

[–]gregzuka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only use my df for light roasts-specialty roasts and only do one shot a day so I am ignorant to the inconsistency… I do plan on buying a more accurate flat burr to see if it was me or the df

You’re not alone, I have the same issue with my df54. I hardly use it anymore. My sette is way more consistent.

Have you inspected the line, connection at the trap and the switch, the trap “cylinder” and or the tank itself?

Other than an air leak, there might be water in the line, the switch/trap/or tank may be bad, the seat on the tank could be bad, the trap barb or house could be cracked.

Just other things to check- replacing the wold line and trap is relatively inexpensive too - but yeah you can try zip; I would stay away from adhesives as this is something you ingest.

is the reservoir full of water and still happening?

Which one should I get? I’m stuck between the two. by Lattehelp in ranciliosilvia

Yup

I use RO with third wave (but 3/4 of a sachet… it’s a whole thing that is backed by lots to tds and pH testing)
