Arrrr so the softer problem as I alluded to; was on the cards... Glad to hear you up and running so soon... :thumb: Did they say any thing about cleaning or how your shower screen was looking ?
No nothing - I regularly flush with a blind filter and use caffetto weekly. I take the shower screen off now and then as well. all was looking ok - I believe that the blockage was caused by a tiny piece of rubber. Anyway - I agree with the posts on the context of problems, yes I have had an issue, yes it made me grumpy and saw me without a machine for 2+ weeks, yes I was doubting my decision to buy in the first place. How do I feel now - well the machine is back, issue has been fixed, and without knowing how many machines have been sold, the two recent issues here (which look similar) may be in fact a very low percentage fail rate. My biggest ongoing gripe is the quality of the stainless finish, with ours having developed oxidisation streaks where it has been wiped with a damp cloth. I cannot remove these blemishes no matter what I use on them. Other than that - good coffee is once again on tap at chez AJ - and having just done a barista course, I realised I always have more to learn than the 12 years or so of experience have given me so far. I do however harbour a secret desire for a Giotto and Mazzer - I will start saving now haha....
