hi
some of you might remember me from the “other forum” which in my eyes went to shit a while back. Personally I threw out my espresso machine rather than go through the agro of trying to sell it as the “cleaning nut” under the assembly was sold to me seized without my knowing so it could not be disassambled and cleaned. Ironically the brand new eureka mignon mk2 I bought from BB is also seized which I only found out when trying to clean it when the warranty had run out. As you can tell I have bad luck when buying and selling stuff.
As a result I’ve been using the grinder uncleaned for about 5 years now, but it still tastes ok, I got the grounds out from the top the best way I could. At the moment I grind and then do a pour over but trying to figure out how to steam milk without an espresso machine.
I really want a synkronika but every time I have £2k spare to buy one I end up buying other stuff instead. It seems like a ton of money for 300 drinks a year.
So anyway…hi. I don’t really have anything to contribute coffee wise.
