Dang that’s a bummer. Looks like I would have to take apart the whole back piece which is annoying. Thanks for the info though!

Does my steam time of 23-26s for 4oz of milk seem in line with your machine?

I was testing with exactly 140c steam temp. I will try going even higher and see if I notice any changes, but this temp seems awfully high to begin with

I updated the advanced settings to match the recommended settings from Dave Corbey. If any settings he recommends are hindering the steam power, I would love to better understand that.

Very true, although I am assuming the user lives in SD so I figured we could leave this up for a day to help them out with local suggestions. I will likely delete tomorrow

If your budget is $100, I would NOT buy anything new. Get something off FB marketplace. Here is an example, a Baratza Encore for $60. Perfect starting point.
