After the old forum software breaking in a way that we were unable to fix, we've migrated the site to a new platform.
Some elements aren't working as we'd hoped - some avatars didn't survive the transition, and we're still having issues with attachments that weren't added as inline images, but we're hoping to have that all sorted out soon.

New to the Forum from CoffeeSnobs
Hi:
I suppose it is only right to introduce myself.
My name is Grant and I have been a member of CoffeeSnobs for 12 years which has been really good. I Paul from K Bean is now on this forum (I bought a nice Macap from him last year) so I thought well why not come across and belong to two forums.
I've been roasting coffee for a long time and I have a Hottop which is 12 years old now and hasn't missed a beat in all that time. Fantastic.
I do like equipment. My last espresso machine was a Bezzera BZ-40P and I had that for 12 years as well. Fantastic but the time had come to replace it so I got a nice new Wega Mini Nova Classic. Lovely machine E61 group and all is good. I like plumbed in machines as it save so much trouble in the long term.
My grinder is a Macap M4D which I have had a year and is a great unit, perfect size, solid and looks great.
I temporarily, my wife advised me, have a Mazzer Robur grinder in the kitchen. I just bought it out of curiosity. I only just got it on the weekend and so far really like it. It is a doser model and I've decided a good doser is actually quite a good thing. Powerful, quiet (sort of) and gives an amazing fluffy grind. I'm not sure yet whether the flavour is much different from the Macap though.
The Robur will get sold shortly...
I like having meet ups with like minded people and over the years have hosted CoffeeSnob members here in Woodvale at my home.
