Petre @CafeNoir @Cuprajake Modifying that stainless steel part was a quite demanding job but ultimately it turned out quite nice.
CafeNoir Petre looking good, from the pics a nice clean and tidy job. I’m still waiting on mine from China….heigh ho!!!
Sham Petre I like the big funnel but the only problem I have is that it’s just so damn big! The Mazzer is bloody massive already without the big funnel. My next mini project might be to make a smaller funnel with aluminium, like that one but squished and smaller.
CafeNoir Sham lol, yes, but iirc it’s almost exactly the same size as the stock funnel on the Major, if not slightly smaller in diameter. But truly, if you can source something smaller and not fugly, please share because it would be awesome
simonc Current setup for V60 (it’s not usually this neat) with a large space waiting to be filled by the Minima on Wednesday. Baratza gear single dose funnel on the Vario but looking at eBay options now that have bellows. A good up and down on the lid though has much the same effect and means it fits under lower shelves but bellows would be easier
Otaibimn Hello All, Still a work in progress but getting there. For the bullet I use a cloudline 6in fan to get out the window:
mission701 My new setup - Lelit Mara X plus Eureka Atom 75E. Vario now in semi-retirement being used for filter/V60.
Gav86 Have upgraded from my Classic of 12 years, from: To: Still getting used to the higher steam pressure but quickly getting there
KyleT My new setup. Lelit Elizabeth arrived yesterday. Already producing some lovely espresso. @DavecUK has cost me a pretty penny over the years with his reviews 🤣
KyleT headstar hi, is that the William PL72 grinder? If so how are you finding it? You don’t hear much about it on the forums. It even seems hard to get hold of in the UK.
headstar KyleT hi, yes it is PL72. I do not have any comparison to other grinders as this is my first one. I cannot complain about it, grinding is consistent in my opinion. I have added 3 small balls and springs to the control wheel so I can adjust by 0.25 (comparing to 0.5 by default). Maintenance is very easy.
tompoland Malwani Livi (83mm conical burr hand grinder) finally arrived. From left to right: Mawani, Strietman CT2, EG-1 and Decent DE1XL.
