Hey there I just saw your video because I also went too far and then was not able to build all back as it was. I found out that you can separate the ring where the pushbutton fits in and the upper part supports the circuit button that allows to grind when all is build. I managed to rebuild the whole thing but just the ring where the grinding level is marked... It is a bit hard to press the ring back to te upper part where the screws are but now it works. I wish I was able to Uploads some pictures here... But yeah I wanted to share my solution without modifying the electronic which I am also considering bc as you mentioned it is not relevant to have a switch for that...

Got a used one today for 39eur. Tons of coffee residue, calcium and nasty milk frothing on the steam wand. Cleaning took like 2hrs with descaling and cleaning tablets. Got baskets from my dedica, removed the plastic insert and removed the pressurized baskets. It was a bitch to get the non-pressurized basket into the stock portafilter Have a bottomless on order. Removed the panarello and used a ziptie to have the rubber tip fixed in place. That way i can preserve it if i sell it later. No need to cut, just twist it clockwise and it should come right off I love that the portafilter gets heated so well with this machine compared to the dedica where i need to pull mutiple empty shots to get some heat. Everything is manual, which does make it more plasant for me. Steaming power seems better aswell and more consistent. The dedica hat steam pressure that waved up and down, making consistent foam kinda hard IME

Through the filter or form the group head? IF you get streams trough the filter then it's called 'channelling', which you can prevent/improve by better distribution (see my latest la pavoni update). If it splashes from the side, then there is probably a seal problem. Could be the portafilter's ears aren't thick enough to fully lock the gap between the filter and station closed.

Here's someone who tried a generic 54mm in his Breville and it worked. coffee.stackexchange.com/questions/5318/fix-my-breville-coffee-machine-filter-holder In the end there is are risk that it may not fit perfectly, as I had, in the end, with my Ali Express naked porta and my ECP (portas' ears were too thin > leakage), but it's a relatively small investment to try. You'd need a three-eared porta. The ordering on Ali express is the same as on most websites: register with a new account (you link use your google or fb account), pick your vender/product and pay with paypal, credit card or bank card. I use the app, it works well if you silence the push notifications and vendors generally reply pretty quickly.
