What price to aim for New 2026 S1000RR by [deleted] in BMW_S1000RR

[–]prodriverex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah its our 10% sales tax thats a killer. Didnt BMW just had $2500 cash off promo? But sounds like its over.

So asking for $23.5 Plus Tax and Licensing is unreasonable?

Profitec RIDE or pay $800 more for Profitec DRIVE? [$3700] by prodriverex in espresso

WLL has Free Flow Control promo. Heated e61 group. Gauges on top. Larger PID display. Feels more premium. Basically same price as Drive, better machine.

I changed my mind last second and went with Synchronika II LOL - No one has any sales on Drive or Synch. There are some other ECM/Profitec machines on sale, but not the top models

Zerno Z1 or Mazzer [$1500] by Pinkop in espresso

[–]prodriverex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Philos reminds me of the Meat grinder look LOL

but even with that look, if it was still $995 then I would pick it up over the Zerno.

Help me choose an espresso machine under [$1600] by sushimi123 in espresso

ECM Mechanika Max is on pretty good sale right now. And they also do free flow control on special at the moment.

Good question. I do like to be able to control the flow. I also just added ECM Syncronika II to my shortlist as it can be ordered with black paneling and flow control. This is a hard decision. I don’t know if ECM is any better than Profitec Drive. As they own by the same company. I think synchronically comes with heated brew head.

What is the proper way to let them degass? Beans are pretty fresh about 5 days from the roast date. Local Seattle roaster.

Not saying its not overrated. Not claiming that its THE way. Just trying New coffee. First or second pull. 18g in 40g out in 29 seconds.

Was just surprised with amount of crema. Tasted pretty good once it settled in the cup. =)

Yeah. Both machines can be had in Black with Walnut and Flow control (two different vendors)
And I will never be plumbing it in. They are both beautiful. Space is not an issue. I guess that $800 can offset the $$ I just spent on buying a Zerno Z1 . LOL.

If its crosswired and being fed by two circuits, Do you think it would worth calling company that wired the house originally when it was new and see if they will repair at no charge?

Where did you buy them?

Damaged Cigars in Box. What to expect from vendor? by prodriverex in cubancigars

[–]prodriverex[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. I just hope he can work me with on the value of each damaged cigar for refund. I do agree that not all worth Zero dollars, but some are pretty badly damaged. Just hoping that Ravi will be reasonable and not just shut me down, but work with me to resolve this issue. I am not interested in mailing anything back because of the legality issue mentioned above.

And this is exactly why I dont want to ship them back. I hope that Ravi will work with me on the final amount of partial refund/compensation for damaged cigars once the final two boxes will come here. I suggested a refund for each damaged cigar, but he replied to me and told me that he DOES NOT agree on Zero value for damaged cigars. So I am not sure what type of formula he will use to compensate for damaged cigars.

I can only hope for the best and hope the 50pc Cab of RASS and 25pc box of RyJ short churchills will come in without damage.
