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

    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.

      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.

          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

            dutchy101 Hello, I just wanted to get more info on the mazzer burr in your df64. Is it the same as the stock burr italmill-df64 or better as for espresso? Thanks

              Mazzer make great burrs,

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

              Is the Vesuvius espresso machine NSF certified?

                Kape17 They sell in the USA, the group has only “Zero Lead brass” (it’s why the piston assembly looks like steel, not brass coloured as in some machines), or stainless in contact with the water, re the lead content (plus some short pure copper pipes). you really need to check with ACS.
