dutchy101 Hello, did you have any issues installing the mazzer burr into your DF64? Like the fittings, is it too tight or loose? Any tips or advise before I install the mazzer burr? Thank you in advance for your help and advice!

      Hi all,

      Joined the forum today. I have to say it looks like a fantastic forum with like minded people.

      I am expecting to pickup my new espresso machine tomorrow from Bella barista. I have decided upon the ECM Synchronika and unless anything else turns my head whilst on the showroom , I should have it back home in time for afternoon coffee!

      looking forward to speaking to you all

      Darren

        Hi,

        Will be a great machine, don’t know if you’ve seen but looks like you get. Free? Portafilter

        @Cuprajake thank you.

        Should of mentioned, I’m going for the ‘mode’ version with flow control. Apparently that comes with the bottomless portafilter as standard :-)

        I did notice the deal you referred to though for non mode machines and thought that was a nice touch 👍

        Dazgough Welcome to the forum. A good choice of machine, great quality and well made. Don’t forget photos of your setup when you have it installed.

            DavecUK thanks Dave. I certainly will! I already have a niche zero in black at home in it’s box ready to be setup with its ‘other half’ 😀

            I’m not expecting my head to be turned whilst at BB as it’s quite a jump up in price from the synchronika after that it seems.

                Dazgough Will look forward to your impressions once its all setup… I have not bought my first machine yet… I am still in the research phase 😂

                    MattH Hi Matt, I was in that phase myself for a while too 😂 To be honest, the Synchronika is at a price point I feel that makes it a tad easier to make a decision. It appears to be a great machine. There are of course good cheaper machines but to ‘step up’ I have found that it would require a significant increase in funds and I don’t believe I am good enough to warrant anything more. At least for the foreseeable future if ever.

                    Just got back home from BB with the sync and some goodies. Will probably set it up on the counter tonight and start pulling some shots tomorrow 👍

                    Will post pics soon and then follow up with some of my first impressions.

                    BB by the way are awesome. Can’t recommend them enough

                      Congratulations, agree Bella barista are superb

                      May move some bits around as I work out my best workflow. Just ordered a filling funnel too as won’t be plumbing in

                        Just added a couple of quick upgrades. VST basket (18g), IMS Nanotech competition shower screen and a cafelat silicone gasket
