    Re: Need a new machine - my life has turned to grey

    As far as I know Jetblack has them in stock and can post anywhere

    You could ask them about a package deal and see whether he can or not, I know he does them with others.

      Make sure you get a Precisefit tamper from Charlie and Deb (at Jetblack) too, maybe even a naked portafilter...

        My vote if for a Pullman tamper of your choice perfectly matched with a VST 18g basket.  Thats if it fits your machine.

        As for the machine, if you can wait, check out the Dual Boiler reviews which will be coming thick and fast in a couple of weeks. I think it may have the elusive WAF feature built in ;D

        Grinder... Your call.

          A Pullman will...but a VST basket wont. The Lelit PF diameter is 57mm.

          I have a perfect fitting Pullman for my Lusso.... but for Ahhh.... he might be able to get a good deal from Charlie if the purchase of the Lelit is combined with a tamper purchase... :

            Thanks guys,

            Well colour has flowed back into my taudry life. The Good Folk at Jetbalck sent me over a Kompact T3 (?) and a Lelit 041EM.

            Certainly changed the look of the kitchen - didnt reaalise the grinder was so BIG! The blue PID display and the heating light that winks on and off thru the day certainly add some colour and motion to the place.

            I got a tamper with the machines and I have to say that coffee-making quality has lept an order of magnitude. Didnt take too long to get excellent results.

            Sadly weve come to the limits of store bought coffee and the local tap water...

            Ive floated the idea of a coffee roaster but was fixed with a steely stare from partner.

            She obviously sets her standards lower than me - all these years and I hadnt known this. Actually, come to think of it there have been some other things Ive noticed of late. Hmm...

            I wonder if this new rig will spell the begining of the end for us? Im sure its happened before.

            Thanks for all your tips - I guess.

            Peter
