Hi,

Good to hear that you manage to pull a shot longer than 20 sec. If its muddy and bitter could be that your grinder is the culprit where it grinds too fine (muddiness) for some grinds on that dose.

What kinda beans are you using? Dark roast or medium roast beans?

Wow Genecafe CBR-101, new and not used before. Thats a steal. Too bad out of my budget.

Yep it's up for grabs.. feel sad to let it go since i lose money + not even using it lol. but i really need to let it go..

I estimate the roast to be a dark (maybe medium-dark)....

I think I will try using the Hario Skerton to get a more consistent grind this weekend and try again.... weekday mornings are way too busy to mess around with a manual. In the meantime I have repressurised but trying something else; noticed the spring is really really soft. When I googled for Poemia replacement springs, noticed the design is quite different... the replacement springs look thicker. This morning I placed a small plastic disk beneath the spring to add compression force, and the shot came out pretty good! Extraction time was about 20 sec (compared to my usual 15 sec) and tasted nice... sweet & lots of flavour (though still not as full-bodied as unpressurised).

More experimentation this weekend!!

Is there anyone selling naked portafilter for gaggia classic? hmm

you plan to get the original gaggia classic or 3rd parties one.... ?

Your opinion on this?

http://www.lazada.com.my/eupa-italian-tsk-...ar-8148548.html

Average good enough for beginner who just want daily coffee without a hassle at home but wont expect close to cafe standard.... you get standard thick foam for latte and cappuccino.

Why not get PHILIPS Poemia.... seem alot of ppl using here

I am indeed a coffee beginner PHILIPS Poemia is just too expensive for me. If not mistaken, the lower range is around 1k?

last time i did ask before, around 900 plus abit from harvey norman if im not mistaken but that was few years back....i was about to brought it but sadly, they told me out of stock already....but im not sure about your liability on your recommended machine...

Philips Saeco HD8323 Poemia at Harvey Normans for RM559.

You should also check out other home appliance shops such as Best Denki, AEON Jusco, etc.

One more thing: what grinder do you intend to use? I'm a Poemia user (and also classify myself as a coffee beginner) and I must admit the grinder seems to be a far more important component in your coffee kit. For example, I am still battling to get a consistent decent cup from the machine when depressurized. When pressurized I can also taste the difference between the grind that coming from my Feima/equivalent 600N and the Hario Skerton hand grinder.

Any other reviews on this product? I am not sure about the technical spec, and the brand itself.
if not mistaken, the brand is from Taiwan? LOL not really a coffee-centric nation, but maybe they make good espreso machines?

u read chinese ??

No i do not read chinese

Not worth it. It is toy machine. It is my first machine. I got one brand new set initial bought as a gift for my bro, but he had no interest in coffee. If u wan i can let go at rm 180.

No more 599 .....

actually im using gaggia evo and the classic's portafilter fits it haha, any 3rd party or ori from gaggia also ok. btw I saw one seller from amazon carries it for about USD 52 so it would be around RM250 if convert to MYR, need to find cheaper alternatives in Malaysia first then only decide want to buy from Amazon or not

Grinder? haven't a clue! I intend to buy the ground coffees, so no need to grind, hehe.
And you are just being humble; I know your comprehension in coffee is quite good!

Any particular reason? i mean, is it a reliability issue, or the coffee is horrible?

LOL what do you mean no more 599? The link @lowkl provided quote the price at 559, lol
