  • My new purchase

    Just wanting to show off my new purchase. After my post on this forum last week I met with Chris (talk coffee) today and came home with my new VBM Vaschetta, Ascaso i-mini, Compact Design knock box and tamper, a tamper mat and a sample of Chris coffee. After setting it up it was time to make that first shot. Well after approx 30 attempts :P I finally made a reasonable 30ml shot 8-). With more practice at getting the correct grind I am sure I will enjoy even better shots.  Below are my equipment before and after shots. Thanks to all those who gave feedback and to Chris for his assistance and wonderful service. Cheers, Greg (Crowie)

                  Good on you, Crowie!!

                  Glad youve joined the VBM Domobar Levetta ("Vaschetta"?) club...

                  Based on the results Im getting with mine, I know you have made an excellent choice with Chris help, and that given time, patience and experimentation, you will be even more ecstatic with your purchase than you obviously are now.

                  Dont forget to give some of us a yell if you need any help!!

                      Very nice setup. Youll have heaps of fun this weekend...and as Trev said, welcome to the Levtta club ;-)

                      I think Vaschetta means "stainless steel with watercontainer"...

                      Oh and yes, drop us a line if you need tips or help.

                      Reckon it might be time for a Levetta User Group thread...

                              Hi MarkC77.
                              Think its a mock granite bench top ...... not really sure - renting at the moment and havent paid much attention to the bench top. I love the look of my set up on it though ;D

                              Cheers,
                              Greg (crowie)
