Linea mini ?!??

Imo don’t get a linea mini, at minimum get a gs3. Linea mini does not have saturated group head la marzocco is known for. Also it doesn’t have pressure profiling you can get with a gs3 manual paddle. It’s basically a e61 machine with la marzocco design for twice the price.

Gs3 price is…. Whoa.

Law of diminishing returns will apply I guess. As with most things

updates... Niche zero have ready stock for order...

But can i check with those that have purchased previously...... what are the extra amount we have to pay on top of what we paid at the website for niche zero?

Particularly when it reaches Singapore?

Curious to hear your comments on bottomless portafilters. Worth it?

Easy to clean.

 

[hardwaregone]

Niche needs deep cleaning 3 to 6 times a month.
If really no retention, still needs to spend so much time to clean with vacuum and burr dismantling?

How come the first few times will retain, later won't?
Anything really changed?

Easy to clean.

Isn’t it the other way round? If you don’t make it perfectly the espresso will sputter all over your machine/table.

I read that first few times will becos still have some empty space inside that will still somehow be filled therefore the retention is higher but most said is less than 0.3g
