CoffeeGeek - Espresso: Machines and Grinders, WEGA Lyra / Mininova Brew Pressure Adjustments (#)
„ Recently mine began backing up for the first time since it was installed in June. I found that there was a low point in the drain line where the line drooped down under the counter on its way to the sink drain. Crud had collected at this low point and slowed the flow to a trickle, and it backed up while I was backflushing my machine with Purocaf. I rearranged the drain line to eliminate the low point and flushed a tsp.“

CoffeeGeek - Rancilio Silvia - Chris's Review
„ I was going to delay the purchase but I saw that the Daily Grind had dropped the price to $325 (The price had since just gone up to $345). It may be odd to say, but I‘m glad that I worked my way up the expresso machine chain (Krups steam toy -$60; Krups pump toy -$100; each busticated from use before being replaced). I would have hated to have dropped the money on a Silvia and then find out that it didn‘t really matter to my quality of life -- spending money for the sake of spending money is a very expensive hobby.“

CoffeeGeek - Nespresso Espresso Machines - J R's Review
„ It took me a while to get the hang of it when I first got it years ago but after long periods of lack of use, I have to re-learn how to get it right each time. I never could work the frother very well and stopped using it in preference of a stove-top frother I bought in Amsterdam (an extra step and more cleaning). Although the Gaggia has indicator lights for temperature, making multiple cups of espresso for entertaining was "iffy", at best, and often just useless to try. But, when everything goes right, it is superb.“

CoffeeGeek - Espresso: Questions and Answers, Please help me.
„I'm happy with my Capresso EspressoPro (~$250; I got it on sale for $200). It makes good espresso using preground Lavazza or Illy with a minimal learning curve. I'm not much of a milk fan so I haven't tried much along the cap/latte side, but I have verified it makes satisfactory mochas.“
