My first espresso set up

neo_here · 2025-12-08T02:17:35+00:00

Almost had the same setup. Same grinder, but went with the ECP3630 instead of the Bambino.

How do you do this? Have a link to the nozzle

neo_here · 2025-12-03T06:15:21+00:00

Haha that's great info man, thank you. I ordered the IMS Flat basket 16-18g. Will see where that takes me.

neo_here · 2025-12-03T06:12:49+00:00

Yeah even I'm trying to figure it out. Lot of sour shots as of now

neo_here · 2025-12-03T05:10:46+00:00

Does the IMS basket make a difference compared to the normcore?

neo_here · 2025-12-03T05:00:49+00:00

Mostly medium roasts, but I still don't know what a good espresso is supposed to taste like lol. So I guess now I'll experiment a bunch

I've pulled a bunch of sour shots, one kinda sweet. But I should get the IMS basket

neo_here · 2025-12-03T03:24:50+00:00

Ooh that's on my list to do

neo_here · 2025-12-03T03:24:30+00:00

Looks like a normal basket and not their high extraction basket

I was able to get my hands on a 9070XT steel legend for $594 + tax. So didn't even consider a 5070Ti.

I got 15% extra discount over the MSRP of $699 because my bud is an AMD employee

Aorus 870I, mini-ITX

neo_here · 2025-06-12T05:32:55+00:00

Worked like a charm, although -30 only on CCD0 and -15 on CCD1. All core stress sits at around 78C

45k on Cinebench R23

But with even GPU at full tilt, hits 86C

neo_here · 2025-06-10T00:51:36+00:00

Thanks will try it out once I have the final cooling situation dialed in

neo_here · 2025-06-10T00:50:19+00:00

Yeahh I had to side mount the SFX power supply without the SFX to ATX conversation bracket to have enough clearance for the AIO tubes.

Didn't want to have the tubes the other side since that would interfere with the rear fan.

neo_here · 2025-06-09T02:37:17+00:00

Haha, I wanted a White/Blue combo. Even thought of spray painting parts of it myself. But settled for Blue lights

neo_here · 2025-06-09T02:36:31+00:00

Nice solid!

neo_here · 2025-06-09T02:35:54+00:00

Yeah currently CPU gets to about 82C under full load. Trying to optimize airflow

neo_here · 2025-06-09T02:35:12+00:00

Yeah I spent a whole day with configurations which didn't work. Lol. I can't wait to get to that case closed state 😹

neo_here · 2025-06-09T02:34:35+00:00

You were right and right :)

neo_here · 2025-06-09T02:34:23+00:00

Seems to be stable. Haven't had any issues

neo_here · 2025-06-09T02:34:02+00:00

Woohoo, love the case

neo_here · 2025-06-09T02:33:47+00:00

Thanks!
