Yes bigger holes.
Contentious statement number 1 😜
Then wire drip tray is actually more practical than the more beautiful laser cut stainless version.
Contentious statement number 2 🫣
This machine should always be fully plumbed in to fully appreciate it’s ability
Main reason for cutting the holes is I stay at the machine for cup warming, portafilter cleaning etc etc. a lot of water relatively gets dumped through the tray and it just splashed too much with the tray as it was, as cosmetically pleasant as it is.
I’ve probably not finalised it yet as I’m still most likely swapping over the water and steam outlets. I do have another tray though should I wish to do a final design if it doesn’t look the part after further refining.
Be warned. If you are going to try this make sure you have the required kit to polish it back up. A rag and solvo won’t do it!!
Feels like it’s A4 stainless. Not the stuff for Screwfix jobber drills either 😎
Paolo’s eyedrop shapes make for a great shape to expand from and the material is fantastic once polished back up.
