😆 If Mitch says so hey?... That needs to be put on a shirt.

Thanks for the input... however I'm in no position to pay a camera man. 😅

@@mitchdoescoffeeA cheap gimbal or tripod from AliExpress would solve the problem for a few bucks

How far into your videos do you just throw images without any form of explaining?

Yea man. I'm super impressed

I would have to agree... Yes, I'm really not understanding the portafilter, I'm assuming it was a cost thing/licencing potentially... But it's also not really too much of an issue... the portafilter design is great. I will be checking what shower screens are compatible for servicing/upgrading

That's what she said...

It's going to be such a great tool to help people develop their espresso.

It'd almost identical to Oracle dimensions... I'll check later exactly

@@mitchdoescoffee thanks that will be the deciding factor we only have one place we can put it in our kitchen/ dining room. We have eating galley style kitchen. It’s impressive what they have done with it for that price point. The spot where it has to go was purpose built for a 1st gen Rocket Giotto. Unreliable POS that was.

@PubRunner yes, I'm surprised rocket made such a dent in the market with that machine... athe e61 bandwagon definitely helped them.

@@mitchdoescoffee ours went through two elements and then sprung a leak with took out the controller and we couldn’t afford to get it fixed in the two years we had it. We had a much better run out of the Brevilles we had since. Tho maybe we were just unlucky with the rocket and lucky with the Brevilles.

Width 370mm - 370mm depth- 420mm height.

It's so impressive.

You WILL NOT be disappointed... I will be interested to see how well it works long term, but for the price, you can't really go wrong.

Awesome to hear mate. I think you will be very happy. 👍

100% agreed! If they were to develop the Dual Boiler... NOBODY! Would be able to catch up... But selling a new machine post-warranty is clearly a part of the board room meetings.

It honestly wouldn’t take much for them to add a couple little features to the dual boiler and everyone would go mad and love it.

@philke30 for sure... But then nobody would buy the ridiculously overpriced oracle. 😩

​@mitchdoescoffee that is EXACTLY what I was pushing for while I was working there years and years ago. I pushed the need to develop the dual boiler and add further functionality to it. But there was ZERO interest. Instead they remove the dual boiler from the oracle and replace them with thermal jet system. Blows my mind. But there loss.

@@MrLombardi well it's only a matter of time before someone comes along and pushes them out of the market.

Won't be too long... editing a video with a 3 week old at home is tricky. 😅

@@mitchdoescoffeelol yes but the absolute best reason in the world to be delayed I recon 😊

@PubRunner 💯 agreed!

Hey mate. Thanks for reaching out. With the age of the machine, I would dare say other issues are likely to start arising shortly also... It may be perfectly fine with a proper fix, but I would personally cut my losses and start looking into a "proper" machine. There are some really exciting machines popping up at the moment.

Thank you for tuning in. If you are only drinking espresso occasionally, I wouldn't purchase any hopper style grinder... a single dose grinder like the DF83V or similar will absolutely suit your needs much better.

@@mitchdoescoffee Thanks for the advice but I may have to use the hopper as I don't have much time in the morning.

@@atmospher1 I would recommend just using small containers to have your coffee already dosed to the right weight... I used to do that in my cafe for special coffees available.

@@mitchdoescoffee It makes sense, I'll take that into consideration, thanks.

Awesome! Thanks for the tip. (Pun intended) 😅

The new Meraki. Full review coming VERY soon

@@mitchdoescoffee looking forward to it.

Perfect pun 😅 If you are planning on 100% single dosing. I would recommend the DF83v and a decent set of scales... you will end up with a better coffee in my opinion. However if you want a hopper... the Allground sense is by far the best grinder in that price range.

@@mitchdoescoffee thanks mate. Either way, it will be better than the old Breville I imagine 😂

Correct 🤣

Thanks mate. The stitching took about 3 hours. 🤣

Wiping the shower screen & back flushing occasionally seems ALOT easier than digging out a puck screen, wiping, cleaning, drying... So I really don't understand why anyone uses it for any type of convenience.

Either way is perfectly fine. You can do it completely manual also. 👍

😅 #acidbomb

This is too correct... hahaha

If you do want one, let me know & I'll flick you a link to give you 10% off your entire order. 😎

And since making this video, it has had even more upgrades & it is now about $6000 cheaper. 😎

It makes complete sense... If you heat stainless steel & plastic to the same temperature, the steel will remain hotter for longer. 👍

@@mitchdoescoffee I do not think you are right here. Plastics are heat insulators and they exchange heat poorly with surroundings - it takes a lot longer than steel for them to change temperature. Exactly the same size of plastic will retain heat longer than steel: put a piece of plastic and steel in the sun for half an hour and then take them into cool place - steel almost instantly cools down, plastic will take long long minutes. This is why we have steel radiators to get heat in or out quickly. And this is why we have plastic handles on pots or frying pans because they poorly conduct heat. Anyway the coffee machine case likely has minimal to no influence on heat retention in its working components and material it is made of only affects its aesthetic, durability and ease of cleaning. Also please note when you change external plastic parts to steel (electrical insulator to conductor!) you need to make sure they are earthed !!! Otherwise you put users at risk of shock!

@zadzwon112 exactly... if steel takes longer to change temperature, that means it RETAINS temperature for longer. Retention & Dispersion are the very simple thermodynamics at play here. Even aluminium cools faster than stainless steel... softer material = faster heat dispersion...

@@mitchdoescoffee You are wrong again I am afraid. I have written above that steel takes less time to change temp. than plastic. Also stainless steel conducts heat better than aluminium = the same mass of s. steel cools down or heats up faster than aluminium. The concept of heat retention is known as heat capacity in physics: the more energy is needed to change temp. by 1 degree the more heat material stores and longer retains temperature unchanged: Copper (cools down quickly) has heat capacity of 385 Joules per 1 kilogram of mass per 1 degree of Celsius, Stainless Steel (type 316) has 468 J/kgxC, Aluminium 887 J/kgxC, Polycarbonate (ie plastic) 1100 - 1900, Water (cools down slowly) 4187. But this is important for heaters/boilers/radiators/thermal insulators, not for device cases. Anyway all the best for your channel - it is not a science show after all. I am sure you are a brilliant expert on getting perfect coffee taste.Over and out

Coffee is science. 👍

Definitely... I'll be checking out Sydney harbour when I have time.

DF83v is a winner!!!

Don't know what you're talking about... 🤣

Thanks my dude... open invite for the next adventure. 😎

Thanks Donny. I appreciate you tuning in mate. 😎

There are many reasons as to why it would be a "bad" coffee. Something as simple as inconsistent hole sizes in the basket will cause a poor extraction... not to mention inferior metals & build quality... Bialetti have spent the last 90 years developing and improving the product...

Ahhaha. Thanks man... I was tempted to name & shame, but it won't achieve anything positive. Plus, I've got fam more important things to concentrate on. 💙
