Re: correct definition of espresso and sunbeam em6
Thats my understanding yes they give it out at the course... but you can have Sunbeam mail it out to you... but having said that, the course is very good and worth doing.

Re: correct definition of espresso and sunbeam em6
No, I did not get the DVD and have not attended their course.
I figured I would book in for that once I have started to use the machine which is less than a week away now.
Having brought that up, I might just hop on the phone and do it asap.
(The DVD is provided during the course isn it?)

Re: correct definition of espresso and sunbeam em6
I leave (after tamped) about 2-3 mil below the top of the basket... This is what Mr Bassett says to do... so I try follow what he does... he seems to know what he is doing...
Did you get the Sunbeam DVD??? If not, contact Sunbeam and theyll send it out to you.

Re: correct definition of espresso and sunbeam em6
From my experience, I need to run a courser grind in the single basket...
I have my grinder adjusting between 21 and 24.... but Im still experimenting...

Re: correct definition of espresso and sunbeam em6
Coming back to the original line of thought....... (Thats OK guys & gals, thread hijacking leads to some interesting discussion !)
I now have the EM0480 to go with the EM6900 (and have started using the former).
Any suggestions on grind setting for the small versus large basket of the EM6900?
How much should be put into the different baskets (with the recommended grind) to leave the slight showerhead impression?
I know these are exacting questions, but hey, if someone knows and wants to boast, be my guest.

Re: correct definition of espresso and sunbeam em6
There was a Sunbeam factory 6 blocks away for many, many years.
Alas it is now no more.
If an appliance needs repair my nearest "agent" is in Ashfield a good 1/2 hour drive away.
Its on busy, busy, Parramatta Rd and a pain to get to during business hours.
Only God knows how long you have to wait for parts (fromChina?) before they can repair anything.
When the factory was open I could walk there and have things repaired or replaced in no time.
Ahhh...the good old days.

At least he tried to help. Probably doesnt even work there anymore... who knows...Originally posted by Sparky link=1157598377/0#9 date=1157686080Sunbeam heavies huh? That conjures images of men in suits and dark glasses packing fully automatic toasters... scarey.Originally posted by marcstolk link=1157598377/0#8 date=1157672607
I wouldnt bother emailing Damien Court, I think Sunbeam heavies have muted him even though his intentions was excellent. 3 emails have gone unanswered and numerous phone calls. I just gave up.
Well at least Damian sent me one of the EM6900 thermoblocks before he went off line. Its slowly making its way torards becoming operational. Im pretty keen to get it running in my new Bezzera Hydra machine...

Is that fair dink about the seal, even though mines ok. Should I e-mail that bloke from Sunbeam? Would you have his e-mail address by chance?
Cheers
FYI..
dcourt@sunbeam.com.au
Sunbeam changed the seal material to virtually indestructible substance. These were Damiens (dopio on CG) words anyway.
