It perplexes me that so many companies will supply machines at 12 or more bar at the group and yet we all know that the sweet spot is around 9 bar. Then we get stories from some companies that its related to the vibe pump- and yet its the same as the pump in other machines which do ship at 9 bar?
At least the VBM is easily adjusted. Better still, all Australian Giottos are coming to us set to 9 bar. I understand that this happens when ECA do their pre-shipment check. Kudos ECA!
I guess its a good thing for CSers to check that their machines are calibrated correctly. Sadly, too many vendors just shift boxes and dont care too much about whats in the cup....
I hope you enjoy a better brew now Bob
