Re: Bacchi Espresso
Ta. I took away with me equal quantities of the Brazil / Peru / Colombian / Honduras beans currently on beanbay (each roasted to about CS9). After 1 sink shot caused by too coarse a grind everything went beautifully. I used my Hario hand grinder, set 3 notches from closed, and ended out using just shy of 19g of beans (prior to grinding) in each coffee. Made some great coffee. I found it easier to load the filter section with the on/off dial at the rear of the machine, as this could then be adjusted without having to fit my hand through between the two cups sitting waiting to be filled. Got the Bellman milk steamer pretty much right after a bit of experimenting. While the Baachi wont get everyday use from me (wasnt my intention), Im very happy with the quality of the coffee it produces.
For someone who has a single coffee each morning before work (and partic. if you dont take milk) this would be a great everyday machine.
