        hmm....the metal forks vibrate too much on the k10. when I rest my PF on it, it rattles like a &^#$.....
        I have no such issue.

        You should see what the Elektra grinder does to a La Marzocco portafilter! Its like a JACKHAMMERRRR [smiley=angry.gif]

          oh reaaally?

          Might be different forks?

          Mine just goes nuts when the PF spout touches the fork. BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

          Hmm....might be some tuning forks they found lying around!

            The 60mm flat burrs of the Cunill range are not what one would call cheapies, they are top quality and will grind consistently and last as long as many other "non-cheapies". So starting with the Tranquilo at around $395 there is no need to spend $600 if the burrs are the main issue. IMHO.
            If this grinder was a little smaller I would have got one instead of the Challenge
            Got to have the space on the bench

              Gotta say with the Challenge youll not be getting the most out of the Galatea - Ive tried it with the Challenge, the KS and the Macap M4, and I can tell the difference blindfold Im sure

                    I have a triangle of bench space available

                    Side 40cm X front 40cm X back 30 cm B/4 it falls off the bench

                    Hight is not much of an issue but the wife factor may come into it as it did when she chose the Bezzera Domus

                    So would prefer a low profile grinder if possible and pre loved to keep costs down


                    Chris recomended the K3 when I asked him a few weeks ago

                    The Mazzer Robur is 28 kg empty and about $3000
                    Im afraid would not get enough use at home

                      Hi KK,

                      It might be worth making a WTB post in the Hardware for sale thread? There are a couple of mazzer minis there as well...

                      Cheers

                      Chris

                        A robur is a just a monster.

                        at 500RPM and 71mm blades the thing just hacks away at the beans you put through it at home.

                        You turn it on for 3 seconds and ur done....

                            Its actually closer to 4 and 4.5 seconds....not that 1 seconds makes a difference at home
