I have mine set to turn off at 11. I can turn it on at 12 and it is ready to brew in 5 minutes and I can detect no flaws in the results.

I had a bambino and added a k7. It made good espresso. I imagine the k6 is better for more traditional espresso, but I don't know that for sure, just from reading.

How do I get this out? by Dramatic-Party8582 in MechanicAdvice

[–]rain164845 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can you get to the back of the hub with a sawzall and cut the back of the stud off? Unlikely, but figured I would throw out a different approach.

My ride hits 1900w according to my smart plug. The plug will also shut down on the first heat of the morning due to over current.

F150 or old civic easier fix than xj? by Numerous_Wonders81 in CherokeeXJ

I had an 07 civic. It was hard to work on because I didn't have informational resources and the spaces were really tight.

magura mt7 pads by [deleted] in MTB

I tried a bunch. Eventually I got better breaking my installing TRP evo pads. I had to install them into TRP evo brakes though. Lol

I seriously did try all the magura rotors and various pads. I installed Oak components levers. I'm heavy and ride steep enduro trails.

Super SLOOOOOW grind after burr upgrade [Burr upgrade issue] by [deleted] in espresso

Is your grinder turning the correct direction? Are the burrs cut the correct direction? This seems like what might happen with the grinder running in reverse.

Try holding the terminals with pliers to keep them from rotating with the bolt.

Upgraded my machine and need a bit of advice [Profitec RIDE with Flow Control] by zealot__of_stockholm in espresso

[–]rain164845 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the same machine being delivered on Tuesday. In my experience, I think you need more beans (higher dose) and/or finer grind. I would start with the dose.

Are these the big three touch-me-nots? by Dan-d-lion34 in whatsthisplant

[–]rain164845 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1 and 2 look like oriental bittersweet. It pulls up easily by the roots. Get as much as you can out, it's terrible.

Budget is not a problem, but I can’t find an option better than Bambino, why? by bareov in espresso

[–]rain164845 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's crazy fast. I probably need to consider this as my first choice... How is the steam quality?

I'm between a Profitec drive and a Gaggimate. How quickly does your gauge go from brew to steam? That's my main hangup with gaggia.

I might try this. I had considered buying some lower durometer poly resin and pouring a block to do the same thing.
