PaulL Many thanks for a lovely welcome Paul - it was great to see your set-up and take an hour or so out to discuss all things coffee with you!
I set the machine up as soon as I was home and other than a very tiny steam leak when up to pressure on the steam boiler water level probe inlet (temporarily sorted with some PTFE thread tape) the machine is absolutely fantastic and I feel such a good deal - for clarity, I’m not moaning as I was expecting something to be awry after being bounced around for 100 odd miles in the back of my car!
Paul gave me a couple of packs of beans he roasted himself also - I very much look forward to trying the batch you roasted on Sunday and seeing how the end product compares to the smell of the green beans.
