Siliconslave's how to make espresso thread

From cold between 3-4 minutes. Usually warm by the time, I've got the milk and PF ready. The grinder is the same as the smart grinder pro which is a decent entry point. There's always scope to use a separate grinder but you're still netting a dual boiler for the same footprint and generally cheaper than a dual boiler.

I'd personally hold fire until the 15/20% voucher drops and check in daily. They regularly drop between 5-£600. Some machines drop even lower. The auction style ones missing parts yield even better deals:

Will add a warning: Please learn the basic maintenance required, especially changing the O-rings on dual boilers. On the older machines, they need servicing and they can cause a lot of grief.


I’ve bought an Oracle Touch for £550.
I’ll buy some descaler and a new filter. Anything else you’d recommend or should I just chuck some coffee in?
