Hi all
I noticed on the Talk Coffee website that it has "Coming soon- Vibiemme Domobar Super Lever- dual boiler + PID.".
I have a PIDd Silvia and I can understand that as the Silvia does not have an E61 group head and the group head is much lighter in weight so it can fluctuate in temperature depending on the state of the boiler. The PID on my Silvia relieves me from having to manually temperature surf.
A PID on a VBM though would surely not be able to effect the heavy group head in a short time? What sort of improvement is it designed to provide in this case? A PID on a Silvia makes a huge difference but how much difference does a PID make to a high end machine?
