Great when you are looking for a no effort steep and release filter. Found the pace of release to be slow until I read of a trick: pour the water in first, then add the coffee and gently stir, initially and then midway in the steep. The brew flows out like a charm when released. Adding the grounds first, water second seems to gum up the paper/

      That it the same as the Clever Dripper…water then grounds steep and stir and it flows much easier.

        I got a Niche over Christmas. Love it so much I wrapped my Gaggia Classic in white. 🤍 Currently planning a Gaggiuino mod.

          I’d be interested to know how you get on with the Gaggiuino mod if you do go ahead with it

            Some new coffees to try, came highly recommended. Might be the lightest roast I have had from anyone, at least since I started measuring the colour on coffees I buy

            I just realised those filter baskets are 54mm… Maybe not an LMLM after all. :-) Plot thickens.

              Nothing exciting but essential:

              On a slightly different subject. I’m thinking of ordering some things from Coffee Sensor, namely the temperature gauge and mount, arm pins, and steam nozzle. Possibly their PPK and group sleeve/tool at some stage in the future. I don’t doubt their bona fides but was wondering about the hit from HM customs and if there’s an alternative source for these items.
