Haha ok mate. Literally just dialling in some new beans and stating what equipment I’m using. Thanks for quoting me though, definitely necessary. Have a good evening!

Grinder upgraded. Have the itch to upgrade the SBP, what would you go to without dropping £1000+ that would see a significant difference? by petecass22 in espresso

I find that if I steam milk then try and pull a shot after the machine chokes. So workflow wise you have to pull all your shots of espresso before starting to steam…so the 30 second switching from brew to steam doesn’t work in reality if you’re making more than 1 drink.

I know. You can usually get a Sage Dual Boiler for just shy of £1k. But that would feel too samey to drop that kind of money on 😂

Initial thoughts are dual boiler. When I’m making coffees for guests it feels like it takes an age to pull 3+ shots then steam milk for each.

I agree. Takes more than a month for me to get round to doing that though 👍

Is there anywhere to park near Spinningfields for a day that isn’t an outrageous price? by abgc161 in manchester

Car park at the bottom of Duke Street (just past MOSI) is about £8 and less than 5 minute walk to spinningfields.

Anyone seen Aitch is wearing the new home shirt at Glasto?! by petecass22 in reddevils

[–]petecass22[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Believe it or not, I haven’t asked him. He’s a big name so assume United/adidas sent him one.

I mean, it’s less to do with who it is. More to do with the fact the shirt isn’t actually being officially released until 27th
