You're comparing the Diadema's sell price to the Expobar's RRP, which is not really apples with apples.Originally posted by Talk_Coffee View PostNope- We sell it close to RRP of the Expobar
The vendor I bought from did a good package to suit my needs well under RRP and, being local, means help is not far away if I need it.
I had briefly considered the Diadema Jnr, but when I was already so far over my original budget, I couldn't justify taking that next step for little gain.
Friends of ours have an Expobar already and have nothing but good things to say about it.
After reading on US forums about how some Expobar machines run hot, I have spoken to the techs at Disave' (who distribute the Expobar machines here in Aust.) and they assure me that all machines they have been bringing in for the last 15 years or more have been fitted with thermosyphon restrictors to regulate the temp of the grouphead. Apparently the EU and US versions don't have them.
Disave' also told me that they check and set up the pressurestat and pump pressures prior to shipping them from their premises in Melbourne.

That's correct and that was in my earlier post. Others may well be shopping within a price bracket.Originally posted by krusty182 View PostYou're comparing the Diadema's sell price to the Expobar's RRP
Good thing if yours has been done krusty.
FWIW, I have yet to see one which didn't run hot. We have certainly purchased them in the last 5 years and have had to install restrictors and set every one we have bench tested. We have also performed this work for CS member owners on multiple occasions.
If things have changed for the SA and FA, that's terrific.
