Tell members what you got - pictures too if you have them

Lets kick off with some beautiful measuring equipment and it's even coffee related for some projects I'm doing. Micrometer (1 micron), depth gauge (1 micron) and calipers (10 micron). A pleasure to use, especially the callipers as my other set are Mitutoyo, but 60 years old (my dads) and in thou.

Not nearly as desirable as Dave's Mitutoyo triptych, but I my AliExpress order arrived, Timemore scales and tamping stand. https://p8.f1.n0.cdn.getcloudapp.com/items/6quvgKo1/d1df3fad-2e19-4680-8ce4-1b3b2beda9c9.jpg https://p8.f1.n0.cdn.getcloudapp.com/items/2NuPLY8D/e86b8e20-5899-4d8c-9d5f-c6d9f5ac229c.jpg https://p8.f1.n0.cdn.getcloudapp.com/items/jkuEwdpG/3de85076-95b0-4234-8023-c13f2363b3dd.jpg Tamping stand reminds me of a monolith from 2001: A Space Odyssey. https://p8.f1.n0.cdn.getcloudapp.com/items/7KuA5eZw/ab5f8c5e-ae80-4b21-9ca1-6eaf383dc281.jpg

Up and running again now 😄 .

@"Elcarajillo"#p228 Looks good Frank, especially like the PID, much better than the old one…you going to keep the longer legs :😉 And @"Gagaryn"#p405 at least it isn't a Vesuvius Evo?

@"Gagaryn"#p405 All the legs are intact for a change.

What did postman bring today ?

Systemic was cooking on my ooni an hour ago thinking I needed the turning peel. Interested if it works

Systemic

simonc

Takes a bit of practice. It’s well made and the peel area is just right. Pleased I didn’t go for the cheaper versions which have much larger peel areas.

and a TDS test from Ebay

This arrived today makes testing my water easier. Eliminates having to shake the tube without loosing any water so I can now concentrate on the number of drops instead.

Time to make some freezer space…

I received my new VST 18g basket from square mile yesterday along with a free 30g sample of El Corazon which I’ll try soon. First shot out was way under pressure and second over. I’ve set the Niche to 10 and hoping I’ll have found the sweet spot as still made great caps both times, thanks to the milk keeping it drinkable. So glad to finally have a ridgeless basket other than it getting stuck this morning on the group head.

Feet glorious feet. So much better than the stock ones!

SouthMark45

I didn’t realise you can get separate feet….. can I ask where you got them from please?

DavecUK

SouthMark45 I’m thinking they were made….3D printed?

There’s a guy in Turkey who makes them (turned wood) and sells them on Etsy here.

Three different colour options. He didn’t have black when I looked so I asked if he was likely to have stock anytime soon and he replied very quickly saying he’d put some on the following weekend, which he did. They’re pretty simple but they look great. I just couldn’t bear a great looking (in my opinion) machine, with such poor feet - it looks ‘right’ now.

mission701 cheers I’ll take a look

That’s just weird. I found a key in my car, when to the best of my knowledge nobody had been in it but me. I asked my Mrs and she said its not one of her keys, and what’s more, she also found a random key. This was a few months ago. I have the key here in front of me but nobody knows what it’s for.

Etsy 3d printed wdt tool that feels really nice plus it’s made 2 miles up the road from me rather than coming from US or China.

Interested of that funnel could work on the Minima to save me pulling it out all the time

The tour continues, a nice pick me up after being under the weather for the week. Just had my first coffee in 3 days 😅😅

Yeah… since I posted this I’ve been looking into it and I think I’ve made a bit of a mistake!

These are Red Speed burrs from The Espresso Shop, and looking at the burr pattern are not in fact SSP at all… possibly just coated versions of the standard burr, so not really an upgrade. So they’ll be going back.

It seems like the 64mm SSP burrs are out of stock literally everywhere, presumably because there’s a lot of Fellow Ode owners doing an upgrade.
