we got our Lucca a few weeks ago, now ready for it's maiden voyage! I'm a little overwhelmed between the snazzy grinder and the Lucca A53 but these short vids are a lifesaver! I need easy peasy...

happy shot pulling! Always feel free to reach out if you have any questions.

Hi Charles, which wood option is this? Is it also available on direct plumb? Color looks like it'll match my mahogany furniture.

Hi Charles, nice video! My Lucca has a display for temp from 85 to 120. Is there an equivalence to 93C? Also can I change the pressure to say 8 or 10 bar, and is this a setting you recommend moving?

[@clivecoffee]

93°C is just a hair under 200°F, so functionally you can use the 200°F setting. You can adjust the pump pressure and we have an article that explains how which I've linked below. I encourage experimentation but I'd recommend toying with other variables before pressure (ratio, time, etc.) as they tend to have a greater impact anyway. If you do change pressure, a bit lower is better than higher. A recent study suggests that 6 bar might be the ideal number, though I can't personally back that up yet. - Charles

You can look for water softening pouch that goes in the reservoir
