QUOTE(alvinng @ Sep 21 2021, 09:54 AM) hi guys ... can you recommend a coffee machine for home use Hello...1) easy one press button 2) mostly espresso / lungo. sometimes cappucino 3) coffee can be from either capsule or coffee bean looking at nespresso but open to other options I had been using Nespresso machine with capsule for almost 7 years ... good for lazy people and loving the marketing tactic by Nespresso ... not until I invest on the Breville machine .. it takes me to another level of coffee enjoyment ...so .. for me is bye bye ..nespresso.. |

Is there anywhere I can get freshly grounded coffee in KL? Place where you can choose your beans and they will grind them for you on the spot.

Hi guys, wondering if anyone here is using a Saeco Poemia. I'm trying to troubleshoot my machine as it's currently making substandard espresso.
If possible, could you help me measure your water flow rate (water debit) over 20 seconds? Suspect I may be getting low flow/pressure and would like to know what is the base flow rate. |

I used to use a Poemia. I can't give you a flow rate because it has long been 'decommissioned'. Did you depressurise the portafilter?If possible, could you help me measure your water flow rate (water debit) over 20 seconds?

I upgraded to a bottomless portafilter. Was well dialled in and pulling great shots until one day this week all I can get is either choking or channeling. Happened overnight and didn't change anything on the grinder. Same beans and everything. |

Hi. Need a suggestion.
Gonna open a cafe soon. We already receive a quotation from one supplier for a coffee machine and grinder, cost rm17k. But when i google, of course they marked up the price around 3k. That’s already fix price. So, any suggestion for coffee machine and grinder for below rm15k. Cafe usage. New and easily available pls. |

hello fellow coffee lover... been trying different bean for my espresso from different roaster for few years and only now i thought why not test SOL since so many ppl give good review and the price is consider cheaper. So i bought a pack Single Origin ( Ethiopia Haile G1 ) and they score it 90+.
they pack fast and ship fast also. when i receive the pack, its fresh roasted based on the printed dates. the main difference i notice is....there is no fresh coffee aroma unlike all of my previous purchase.. even after i open it, it doesn't have those nice coffee aroma.. is this normal ? or for medium roast it doesn't have such aroma? i bought medium roast from other roaster before and it smell good.... but this...no smell.. is smell a good indicator of bean freshness? i did pull my espresso.... and it does manage to give me a good joe with lesser kick (i switch from dark to this medium) SOL https://www.facebook.com/pages/category/Pro...10394637114141/ |

Ummm...well some beans do have lighter aroma than others, although if it's fresh and well packed, it should still be clearly noticeable. they pack fast and ship fast also. when i receive the pack, its fresh roasted based on the printed dates. the main difference i notice is....there is no fresh coffee aroma unlike all of my previous purchase.. even after i open it, it doesn't have those nice coffee aroma.. is this normal ? or for medium roast it doesn't have such aroma? i bought medium roast from other roaster before and it smell good.... but this...no smell.. is smell a good indicator of bean freshness? i did pull my espresso.... and it does manage to give me a good joe with lesser kick (i switch from dark to this medium) SOL https://www.facebook.com/pages/category/Pro...10394637114141/ I guess if you are good with the brew, then should be good overall. |
