Sette 270

Nice! Check out the Baratza website I had the 30 and you can get the upgrade to dial in. Called: Adjustment Assembly for Sette 270 and Sette 270Wi. (I needed the shims too.)

Espresso? You can pull a perfect shot of espresso at home without a $5k+ machine? And without a $1k+ grinder? Yes, I definitely can and do. I got a 1zpresso manual grinder for $160 and a Flair PRO Manual Lever Espresso Maker for $300. I make great espressos at home. Want an electric grinder? Go get

If you want solid support and no drama, look at Eureka Mignon models (Specialita or same-range) or a Baratza Sette 270 — fits your budget and are made by companies that actually answer emails.
