sorry for the repost before anyone else but i thought i should post update #1
so then the first part has arrived, many thanks to Bella B for next day delivery
came home to this (well not really this box was in a bigger plain box full of packing beans)
which opened up contained this
so i put it together and put some old beans in to play with
paired with my soon to be redundent Baby Dose 06 (its served me well but its time to get a more powerful beast)
First impressions are its a lot quieter and smaller then i was expecting (both good things) and although the box on arrival didnt seem that heavy for the size of the unit you can tell its high quality and made to last a very long time.
had fun dialing it in and was a lot easier then i expected, i did a test of either extreme to see the difference and even with old beans that i didnt actually like before when i got good shot on my hand grinder but when they are done using the mignon they are actually a nice espresso (beans were hasbeans kicker and blake blends, still not going to be picking any more of either up but it shows they can be drinkable)
