Is it ok to remove the chute guard permanently? The manual says not to, but it makes brushing out the doser much easier without it. the manual also says that it shouldnt be used for domestic coffee making. whoops 
cheers
on another note. I just got it today. It looks huge next to Silvia and thats without the hopper 8-) (it didnt fit under the cubbord.)
it gives a noticeably more even grind then the challenge. I think I could taste the difference too. it seems to give a clearer flavor profile in an espresso. On the iberital a balanced shot always had hints of sourness and bitterness. that seems to have been reduced. maybe my imagination.
Anyway Im more then happy
