New Members Introduce Yourself
DavecUK This is interesting, i have a friend of mine with the same problem but he can’t find the magnetic rotor anywhere and a new pump it’s cost a lot.
The problem is that he live in Thailand too but if there are some vendors that can sale only the rotor maybe i can pass the contact. Thanks.
giampiero The vendors of parts need to contact Fluid O Tech, the pump manufacturer for the part.
Thanks, for the opportunity to share my thoughts with others of a like kind. I was one of the lucky children my mother found it Okay to allow me to enjoy coffee when I was a young as 8 years.. Maybe she thought I would be a better schoolboy if I was initially stimulated with some caffeine. That was 65 years ago..And I have brewed, roasted and enjoying the coffee fruit.
I haven’t been careful, The amount of coffee equipment I purchased over the years and disposed of … in the effort to achieve the perfect cup…I’m ashamed now. Yet, it seems there is lately an enormous amount of new equipment is offered each year. What shall we do ? All these new toys.
It’s good to see that individuals are returning back to some simple pour-over and it’s simplicity. To achieve a terrific brew.
I hope I will be a good custodian from now on…
Kape17 I don’t, but trust me they will know exactly what you want. If you really can’t find the part number, I can do some digging, I have one, but I am not sure it has the original box, just not sure where it is off hand. Otherwise you can ask ACS directly and they will tell you.
Hello, I have another question to fix another issue with my vintage Vesuvius.
My brew lever drops *just* enough after the low pressure 1st stage as it enters into the next, higher pressure phase. The lever drop is very small, just enough to disengage the button. If I babysit the lever by holding it up gently during the transition to the higher pressure phase it stays there. Thank you, David
Kape17 Could be a worn cam I guess…or an early one where the cut was not so good…I don’t know. Also check this document out, the FAQ.

Hi guys, just discovered where everyone had gone from the other site. I’ve been using a Cafelat Robot and a J-Max for the last couple of years, now thinking of upgrading to a Bianca and DF64P.

Isn’t this for the Evo leva rather than the e61 pressure profiling machine?
RonnieRobot - Welcome.
There is a member here who wasn’t too pleased with the DF64P. There’s a thread about it.
MediumRoastSteam I saw the post from Kyle T, Bella Barista said they couldn’t replicate the issue on his returned item. I wouldn’t mind DF64 if that was better, as I’ve swayed back and forth many times and been unable to come to a conclusion.

I’ve had my DF64 for almost 2 years now. I’ve changed thr burrs to Mazzers and done a few mods (changed the clump crusher) and a couple of 3d printed bits and I’m very happy with it.
Well the v4 is currently in stock so I’m very tempted🤔
Forgot to mention that I’ve ordered a replacement dial sticker from BB last night too. Looking forward getting the zero point on the dial actually pointing at zero as well as kissing goodbye to the horrendous font from the first release lol
