As I posted elsewhere, B662TH26M, PART NUMBER: 1460109 from Adrian at sales@giveitthebeans.co.uk

Torr tamper, 54.4mm from Jens at torrtoys1@icloud.com

If you want Bravo tampers, you can email Gilberto at bodnariuc@msn.com. He sells 54.4 mm to 54.9 mm.

IMO, puck screen is not a good idea on Evo. It’s up to you.

Only this, I wrote it, ACS may have added to it a little?

That pdf link doesn’t work

Cuprajake

Thank you all

LMSC

Cuprajake Btw, grabbed the 54.4 mm from Jens - Torr Gold Convex. Later, we ordered 54.9 mm from Gilberto. The Torr is used for 16g dosage and Bravo if 18g.

Also got the IMS shower screen and IMS 32, which is gathering dust!

Cuprajake

Imt sure which basket route to go down

The portafilter that has come with it doesnt lock in at 6pm. Ocd going insane 🤣

LMSC

Cuprajake As long as the basket is locked well, it can stand
the 11 bar pressure. So, DW about it.

Get the IMS 26 and if you like the IMS screen. You shouldn’t need the IMS 32 unless you will dose 20g-22g; both dosage will have too much head space, after tamping.

Cuprajake

No, i prefer less dose usually.

16g my go to

Jake, Dave will attest to this, but the standard baskets work pretty well. I have left mine absolutely standard. I bought a Goldfinger as i like a nice tamper and @Norvin was kind enough to manufacture a dosing ring. Temperature control will allow you to bring out the best in lighter beans, with luck!
Welcome aboard!

Cuprajake Im going to get a ims basket, any suggestions on part number? Maybe a b plus and a fresh tamper base.

Congratulations Jake - welcome to the club. Recommend IMS B662Th26M. I dose it anywhere between 17.5grm - 18.5grm and it works fine.

My son’s were too - greased them as Dave suggested.

LMSC

I assume it’s the double spring compression that you are indicating when you pull the lever down. It’s normal for us! 😊

Now that you have the Evo, what’s your take on the pump noise? Am assuming you have already have a plan!

This is the official guide - in case of you need it!

The unofficial version is here!

Apologies if it’s mentioned previously in the tread, do we know what the current price of a Leva is with Paolo and approx timescales? Need to make a decision after my indecision lost out on the recent used machine

LMSC

Gav86 Please contact ACS @Paolo_Cortese directly.

LMSC thanks I’ve sent Paolo an email
