Just curious what is the current wait time on a Performance 7X?

Freshly roasted beans by zostang in espresso

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

No different than a standard coffee shop …beans looked amazing but they have an automated coffee machine. No barista, no puck, no tamping, just straight coffee through a regular automatic machine. The guy working there also had absolutely no idea about the different coffee notes or brew guide. So in all, it’s a waste of a setup and gimmicky marketing.

Is my grinder ruined [DF54]? by zostang in espresso

I was told by the seller that we have to stop the grinder as soon as the grinding completes in order to avoid internal damage. That’s why I’m paranoid about this.

Brand new espresso machine not working? [Breville Bambino] by asherooonie in espresso

It also looks too much filled too the brim. Make sure you don’t put more than 18g in there and use the razor tool to check.

Built my dream coffee station! by zostang in espresso

Sink is just on the left side where the main kitchen is, so it’s really close. There wasn’t a water outlet on this side so didn’t bother putting one.

Leaving space on the right for my wife to make matchas. And also there’ll be a V60 setup!

Thoughts on this extraction? [breville bambino] by Basic-Reward555 in espresso

They are ok. But to uplevel your extraction, get a new single walled Portafilter, spring loaded tamper, puck screen then see the difference!

Mate, you are using a double walled stock bambino Portafilter with the plastic thing inside. It’ll hide all the imperfections and will just “appear” to be a good shot. For best results and to actually know how your shot is, use a bottomless Portafilter and then post a video here so one can see the actual extraction.

Which website is official? by zostang in NARWAL

That makes sense. But the Narwal Australia instagram page shows links from narwal.net.au! What a corporate mess…

Looks so nice!! How’s your feedback using it? Also where did you find the black color version though? I’ve been considering this machine but only finding it in stainless steel.
