Nice kits. Expensive, but nice. I put the parts together myself for the gaggia - doesn't look as elegant, but it still made a heck of a difference to the shot consistency

I bought the pidkits.com one as I heard that the instructions were easy to follow. They were good so I was able to do it myself. I think my coffee is better now

Welcome Brett Now thats what I need to get beck into again, Photography I have a point and click Canon 850 IS digital, but my other gear is still 35mm film Need to try my hand on a DSLR again but there is to much choice ? and harder than coffee KK

That's a good introduction Brett I for one don't have a problem with long posts as long as they aren't offensive and everyone here seems to keep things civil.

Thank you all for the warm welcome. Dry Bean, I am truly envious of your rock hound past. My skills are only in their infancy and any opal rough I've had is only Boulder or Matrix although I have a small Honey Opal that I am excited about cabing in the next week. KK, I'll have my Camera at the Cooper's Plains 'Try a Bezzera Lever and KK Roaster' on Saturday so you can have a play with it. Thanks again and I can't wait to get involved!

G'day Derrilex (Alex), Nice to see you here and welcome. I am also a recent defector and just love this forum. We can be honest and discuss coffee things without worrying about certain brands or retailers demanding posts removed. The quality of information here seems far more expansive and interesting. The posts are not hamstrung by over zealous commercial alliances, retailer/brand over-protection, and from my reading thusfar, professional jealousy. All in all it's a pretty relaxed place to read and post with the added bonus of all (bar one) of my favorite contributors from another site being here!

Morning and Welcome Derrilex, good to see you over here. - great coffee 😉 - moto gp 😉 - fishing / boating 😉 All good for me. ;D

derrilex

Thanks for the welcome everybody. I dont pretend to know much about the black art of espresso so my posts may not be the high on the techo stuff but they will be funny - I cant help myself sometimes.

Brett, hate you 😛 I love my rocks, have done since I was a kid, and I can see a few that might interest me 😃 I share your photography passion, I have a D50, we also have 2 D90s in the family, my father is a small time pro and it seems to be hereditary 🙂 ROFL I have to laugh about your comments about posts being deleted, I have a feeling I got half the BDB thread wiped yesterday, I have no idea why :🙂 Also welcome Alex 🙂
