The groups are modified in house at acs
The nurri had the purge first but his is a very basic way of doing so
The flush button mechanically operates a solenoid to vent were the acs uses pressure to do the same thing
The lsm group makes great coffee, esp with the heaters in it.
Add to that the stability of the dual boiler and the ability to plan
@selmerfudd what coffee and roast type do you drink
As for the decent they have machines setup for constant testing, both are over 100k shots,
The decent for me so far has been faultless since day one, my Evo 2 broke in 2 hrs
So the argument of it not lasting is a bit of a kick in the balls imo,
I’d hazard a guess there’s more decents in the wild that acs and nurri combined
The machine is just a tool, as is the grinder, friends have the same duo as me but our grind settings are different even on the same number, so if your decent says 83c and you like the taste and it’s repeatable, what’s it matter if that 83c is in real world 86c? As long as you can repeat it
You really have no idea what machines are doing unless you scace them and I’ve never seen an Evo or nurri scaced before either.
Grinder plays way more importance than the machine for mouth feel. Imo
That’s why I have a zero and duo
Rest of it is just white noise
@dfk my evo2 cost the same as my decent. 👍
