  • Sunbeam coffee appreciation course

    Can anyone please tell me the number to call to book this course for EM6910 owners?

    I didnt buy the machine new (although it was still unboxed) so dont have a receipt or the form/flyer from SB - but I reckon I can talk them into letting me on board - if they run it in Hobart that is... :-?

    As someone mentioned elsewhere, I think my problems so far come down to PEBCMAK!! :

    I doubt it... They ask for the receipt number to verify that you bought it.

      Nonetheless, Id like to try

      The machine was presented to David Makin by Paul Basset himself, so I reckon they might show some leniency!
      Besides, Im very persuasive... </puppy-dog eyes>

        Interesting outcome that. What would Dave Makin want with a 6910 when hes got a brand of his own?? :

          Paul must have a lot of faith in the 6910!

            To be fair, the EM6910 was a major setup in reliability compared to the previous lemon (EM6900). I should know, I went through 4 EM6900 before I got upgraded to the 6910...much better machine! Sure, its not a High End HX machine, but for what it does for the price, awesome!

              There might be a phone number inside the lid to the water reservoir.
              Ive seen a number there on the 6900.

                  I think the hardest decision is who should go.. with 2 coffee nuts in the house and only 1 space... who should win... the guy (so he can make me endless coffees and i can live like lady muck) or the gal so he can be a right old lord on the deck.

                    Welcome to Coffee Snobs PB.

                    Depends on whether you trust him to wait on you or not.
                    If not, do it yourself.
                    At least then you are assured of getting a good coffee when you want one.

                      I went to the course two weeks ago in adelaide, saw an old man with his wife attended though (They bought 1 machine). I dont think there is a problem with two people going with one applicants name.
                      Dont afraid to waste all the beans and milk they provide Enjoy

                        m@ - when you ring Sunbeam, you dont get to talk to a real person, just an automated phone system.

                        I bought my 6910 privately & hence had no receipt (but it was unused).

                        When asked for the last 4 digits of my receipt number, I just made one up. (carefully noting what I made up!)

                        I didnt have any hassles with Sunbeam. I also enquired about the warranty & they said no worries - I am covered.

                          Thanks Gadget & Toad - good news about the warranty too.

                          Dont worry Kopi_O, assuming I make it onto the course Ill make sure the supplies arent wasted! Ive been through about 500g of beans so far for only a few really good shots, so I think its high time I experimented at someone elses expense

                            Absolutely, I just meant that maybe there was some one-upmanship going on - the 6910 is a great machine for what it is but not in the same league as the Marte/Makin!

                            Four machines, ouch! That sounds like a lot of time waiting while its with Sunbeam...
