What did postman bring today ?

MediumRoastSteam

Cuprajake The little lip sits inside the basket on a 58mm but not a 54 it rocks

🤦‍♂️- Damn! That must be soooo annoying!

Good luck with the sale Jake! I take you can’t return it?

CoyoteOldMan

Cuprajake Argh. Well, I owe you a coffee, or five - I wanted to make myself a Force Christmas gift… but clearly got to look somewhere else.

LMSC

Cuprajake Have you called them? You should be able to return it — it doesn’t fit your baskets, theirs’ and you could still change your mind. I am not sure, if there are any re-stocking fees. Did you buy it in the UK? Worst case, it shouldn’t cost you anything more than the postage.

Cuprajake

from france, is what it is, ill sell it on eventually haha - or just buy a 58mm machine

dutchy101

Cuprajake or just buy a 58mm machine

I could actually see this happen

LMSC

Cuprajake Am sure, you will find a buyer for it. GL mate!

The Torr 54.4 is what we use on the stock and Bravo 54.9 is on the IMS at home. Some Evo users like @SL01 are probably using this :

It’s perhaps too tight risking puck lifting on the IMS. It won’t fit the stock.

was a joke, but no link

Courtesy of Lelit all the way from Italy, a Black Bianca, possibly with a darker than normal wood option. Plus a small box of goodies?

Looking forward to an in depth review of the colours. ;-)

That’s nice! May I ask, will it have new features (and are you giving them feedback) or is it something else? 😊

DavecUK

Doram I just realised what might be in the other box…I set of walnut wood bits…I bet all the productions ones are made with white wood…..which I thought didn’t look as good as the standard lelit walnut option…but I’m getting as a new fridge freezer arrived today….Damaged of course…but inside somehow..I presume the top shelf wasn’t fitted right and when they closed the door at the factory…crack!

Plus all the white tape means to hold the shelves in place, wasn’t doing it’s job, it had been put on and not stuck onto the shelves at all. So all of them were free to move.

Ouch. I can imagine the person closing the door and thinking “what was that noise? Better not open it again, I am sure it’s fine and no one will notice anyway.”

I have to say though, that fridge doesn’t look anything like a Black Bianca.

DavecUK fridge freezer arrived today….Damaged of course…

Hope the replacement goes smoothly. GL!

DavecUK

LMSC I just need a new door….hopefully they will deal at some point.

Roasted on 22 Sep, ordered on the 3rd Oct and delivered today. It’s already 2 weeks old on delivery. I will let this sit for 2 more and vac.

LMSC

DavecUK Are the rest ok?

DavecUK

LMSC Yes, just need to arrange the door swap date

Doram

First time for me to buy greens that have cup scores (84, 85, 86 [Brazilians], 84.25 [Colombia] and 88 [Rwanda]) so have high hopes for these.

DavecUK

It was a black Bianca with light wood, and also the full black wood kit and matching tamper in the other box.

No nuts though.

MediumRoastSteam I suspect it’s not modified in any way, I think Mauro just wanted me to have one as a bit of a thank you for all the help.

I mean developmentally, not the advertorial youtuber type help.

DavecUK I think Mauro just wanted me to have one as a bit of a thank you for all the help.

Well… What can I say…. Well done, and well deserved, for sure!

You did a lot of work for them with your reviews. 4 machines (Mara, MaraX, Elizabeth, Bianca). Before those machines and your reviews Lelit was pretty much an unknown brand over here. And now… One of the favourites.

Very nice of Mauro to have recognised the work you have done for them. A true gentleman.

LMSC

DavecUK think Mauro just wanted me to have one as a bit of a thank you for all the help.

How nice! Well and truly deserved. Hope @Paolo_Cortese and ACS will do the same! 😊

Btw, photos please!
