Loonster US Customs Further Detail Due to the nature of the goods, specific authorization is required from a regulatory authority other than Customs for further clearance. Next Step Further processing will occur as instructed by the regulatory authority. A DHL representative shall attempt to contact the consignee/importer or shipper if further details are required. Not what I wanted to see.
DavecUK Loonster It’s a new thing your government introduced, they are trying to restrict imports to the USA to partially protect it’s own markets and partially just to be A PITA. I read something about it some time ago on HB. Also because it make food/hot drinks. https://www.home-barista.com/levers/bosco-dhl-and-fda-t69491.html
Gagaryn Loonster It’s most likely that the wrong tariff code has been used on the import documentation or there is some other issue with the paperwork. It happens remarkably often and is usually sorted quickly. Nothing more sinister than that. :-)
DavecUK Loonster I got a payment notice from DHL. Fees around $75. Hopefully this means good news. It means you will get your machine very soon.
GCEMIDIL Hi Dave, your recently published YouTubes show that you do a kind of manual preinfusion. I assume this feature is also standard with the Vostok? Further question 😎 is the Safety Feature also part of the standard Delivery? BR Stefan
Loonster GCEMIDIL Hi Dave, your recently published YouTubes show that you do a kind of manual preinfusion. I assume this feature is also standard with the Vostok? No. AFAIK, only 2 machines currently have that test feature. @DavecUK and @Cuprajake. In the evo thread, it was mentioned that they are working on a more production version. GCEMIDIL Further question 😎 is the Safety Feature also part of the standard Delivery? No. I paid extra for that feature.
DavecUK Amberale Hi Dave, what is the 16g basket you are using? They fit San Marco and Dalla Corte, it says for 14g, but I put 16 in them
Amberale DavecUK Thanks Dave. That appears to be an Edesia part#. Looks like $30+ aud. 6pound +10pound delivery.
bigeric DavecUK at the same dose and grind, would you say these have faster / the same / slower flow than IMS baskets?
DavecUK Amberale Yep, I have one of those but I would like to try a lower dose basket. The dimensions e.g. depth is the same as mine….!
Amberale Cuprajake I did 16g in my IMS for my second shot this morning and it worked beautifully. I have a vague memory of seeing a 22.5mm high basket somewhere but it may not have been 54-55mm.
DavecUK bigeric at the same dose and grind, would you say these have faster / the same / slower flow than IMS baskets? I have not used an IMS that size, so don’t really know.
