Hi guys, yeah its a great thing. It sure took some fiddling and Im sure Ill keep learning new tricks. Its very grind sensitive and likes pretty fresh beans, but its a magic piece of kit for the money.
Doesnt overheat (imho) and you can pull very good coffees one after the other until its out of water and then its a little tricky to fill when hot (its do-able though).
As is often the case (apparently) with levers, the overall shot volume is down a little, but with two levers and two group handles and baskets supplied, there are plenty of options. I repeat that I dont use it everyday, its at my house in the country so only gets used when Im there (or my greater family, as is the case this week). During the week Im on a FAEMA E98 Compact S1 in the office (Nice machine with a few traits) and a KitchenAid thingy at home (not really recommended)
The Pullman Tamper for the Lusso makes a HUGE difference as the supplied plastic crap is just that.
In March my sister got married at my place, and I had most of the (hungover) wedding guests over for coffee the next day. Once we got a system going to order pull and refill, it churned out a large number of coffees in one morning with no dramas.
