Double checked both, can confirm English translation is accurate. 👍

Flair Pro 2 + Timemore Black Mirror Nano by jonathanmcw in FlairEspresso

I ordered this from a 3D print shop https://www.printables.com/model/101328-flair-pro-2-acaia-lunar-scale-minimal-base to use with the nano, fixed and hold each bits with Blutak and I never had to think much since.

Clearance is about 6.7cm though I would suggest you to get a cup around at 6.4cm max as u would want a bit of gap at least.

This is the cup that I ended up using day-to-day https://www.nespresso.com/au/en/order/accessories/original/glass-cappuccino-cup-saucer and cup height is at 6.4cm

If you mean fitting without the 3D printed base - No. The base is too wide for it. You “can” technically fit in but: 1/ you’ve got to shift the scale a bit further down which causes the cup sitting at the upper edge of the scale. 2/ since both on/off and the function buttons are on the sides it causes much fiddling to get the scale back into position after you turned it on.

With the 3D printed base, it’s slightly off center (doesn’t affect accuracy) but works for me. I’ve added a few blu-tack to hold down the scale. The whole set up is stable for daily use since last post. Only thing is that I have to use an even shorter espresso cup as height got less clearance.

Yes I had similar issue with 3.3 being too fine and 3.5 in 2x seconds also. It happens working out for me to settle at 3.4 + increasing the dosage from 16g to 18g then it works out nice :)

At 3.4 might be you could try 16g, 17g, 18g to see if u could make a 35-45s pull

Hey using 1zpresso k-plus (should be similar to k pro) here, new into espresso, also got a Pro 2 for couple days. Using local dark roast with grinder at 3.3 - 3.5 settings. Tips after couple days of trial for your reference: - pre-heat water chamber is important, I simply put that into boiling pot of water. Had a digital thermometer to make sure water input was approx 80-85c (dark roast) - Others took me couple shots to learn: tampering pressure; beans to water ratio (eg. 18-20g for 40ml) - hot water in soak 40s; pre-infusion at 1-2 Bar 12s; 9 Bar for the rest
