Just finished setting up my updated coffee bar setup having received the Evo Leva recently, and played around with some shots on my camera this weekend. I am currently testing the Decent, Evo and 2 grinders side by side…not sure what will be staying longterm, but it’s a very fun journey testing it all!

    pipedreams86 I’m really hoping you popped a right angled USB extension cable into the port on the right hand side of the touchscreen as you look at it to support any future upgrades, via USB key. Good catch by ACS on the screen and it is hopefully now in the FAQ. @Eiffel

      Sorry Dave, I lost you. What’s is this please ? Thx

        LMSC Sorry Dave, I lost you. What’s is this please ? Thx

        Firmware on the Evo is upgradeable, if an upgrade is made…this is via a port that’s helpfully on the RHS of the display. This means one cannot remove the lid and simply plug in a USB/C key or adaptor cable!

        With a thin RH angle adaptor cable, then one could simply grab the interior end and plug said USB stick into it. I think it’s Micro USB, can’t remember offhand. so something like this

          LMSC Except you have to remove the display to plug it in…then leave it in (for ever) and put display back….

            Can’t take any credit for that, Lance Hendrik mentioned it

            It’s a hand me down from my grandparents, any drop of water does leave a mark ( hence the table mats on the left) but it wasn’t perfect when I got it. A little oiling helps. Nothing has come out of the bottom, yet!

            I was going to install a more kitchen like bar but I really like the look and it works as a coffee/drinks bar.

            Cheers

            DavecUK Thx’ Let’s wait. No need to rush!

            This was yesterday morning, Sunday, and the photo is of Sunday breakfast in kit-form: croissants ready for warming in the oven, oranges for squeezing in large orange juicer and the coffee ready for the off 😎

            Here’s my current set-up, a bit cluttered but not had time to sort it. Ignore the Sage Nespresso machine, it’s only for emergencies 😅. La Pavoni Pro with a temp sensor on group head. Right side is my Frankenstein Mazzer SJ… Removed the doser and changed wiring to make it turn on with the switch. I made the cover and funnel from sheet aluminium and bent it to shape with my hands 💪. There’s a little cap that I pop over the funnel when in use, and I pop it off to get all grounds out. Bellows on top to push everything out to ~0.1g retention.

              I thought that posting a pic here would be a good motivator for cleaning the setup, so here we are. I am that person to use a stock Mazzer Major at home for single dosing 😱 I am in the honeymoon with that grinder and I’ll probably get a David Wong mod.

              i had the wong mod and got rid, i now have the original funnel, and a brush its much easier than the wong kit,

              mazzer major is a great grinder if you have the space

              Decent De1pro v1.45 - Niche Duo - Niche Zero - Decent is the best machine ever made -

                Cuprajake i had the wong mod and got rid

                What was wrong with that Jake ?

                Btw, how do you find it for medium to dark ?
