Happy you're enjoying it though. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] FatVegan@leminal.space 11 points 3 weeks ago (1 child) I bought the same machine when i got into coffee making. I always told myself that when it breaks, i'll buy a nice espresso machine and grinder and whatever. That was 10 years ago in a few month and i only ever did basic maintenance. Not saying these machines last forever, but i couldn't be happier tbh permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] panda_abyss@lemmy.ca 5 points 3 weeks ago Yep, had mine for 7 years now and the whole machine is still in perfect order. Only do the basic maintenance the machine tells me to (and change the filter regularly). permalink fedilink source parent [–] Cherry@piefed.social 2 points 3 weeks ago I agree, bigger or more powerful brings different problems. permalink fedilink source parent [–] amju_wolf@pawb.social 0 points 3 weeks ago Unfortunately it is not. If you do the same beans all over every day, and it's not too much of a light roast and you either get lucky or manage to use the stupid micro-adjustment mechanism that requires you to remove the hopper and all beans, it is usable. But it's barely usable as a grinder for proper espresso (not using a pressurized basket). permalink fedilink source parent
