Very nice machine Pasic, nothing like the thrill of a new toy, not to mention great coffee.

Cheers, not sure why the protective film has been removed. Also portafilter has scraches on it.
Surely new is not like this?

Well, I imagine it's been bench tested which would explain the removal of the film... the PF looks like surface scratching which could occur in transit or the factory - wouldn't bother me, but you could always ask the retailer.

Awesome!! Get a behmor or corretto and start roasting, you will have a complete package!

Weird about the scratches. Looks like it was touching something during transport and was vibrating against something.

Cheers

Would bother me mate, get em to replace the PF, should have been inspected prior to shipping.

I wouldn't be happy with that scratching. You don't pay that kind of money for scratches. It is the retailers responsibility to ensure it gets to you in new condition, you shouldn't have to accept damaged goods.

Liken it to a car - Would you be happy with scratches like that on the bonnet of a new car?

Cheers Yabba

Yeah im not worried about it too much (the scratch). But how do i know this isnt demo model?

[kwantfm Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close kwantfm]

Going back to your original post, I agree that you need a roaster!

If it's a demo model, you'll probably be able to tell from the seal and shower screen.

I'd get the portafilter replaced if it were mine.

Replaced with like aftermarket one or due because little scraches?
I asked if they had bottomless but they dont carry in stock

Is there any specific one i need or any e61 will work?

[readeral Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close readeral]

Due to the scratches. These portafilters are great (well I think so).

[iggs Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close iggs]
