Oracle Touch

That's not a high bar that you are shooting for. If it were me, I would: Check the brew water temperature to ensure it's within a couple of degrees of whatever it's set at. Put the backflush disc in, run a shot, and see if it sounds like the pump is producing high pressure throughout the cycle - it'

Have a 6 year old Oracle Touch that started to pop our GFCI outlet, likely due to leak. Replaced the orings and steam probes, which did not fix the issue. Seems to be a problem with the steam broiler. Loved the machine so much we replaced it with an Oracle Jet....little bit of a side grade IMO, but

On the fence too. My Oracle Touch is having issues with the leaky boiler and O ring, tamping and dosing very erratic after having it for 7 years. Need another machine but will not get the touch again. Am looking at the Jet as well because many parts from the touch will fit the Jet but am very hesita

They work amazingly well actually. You probably just bought a crap machine. Pressure and flow of your home water system aren't relevant for an espresso machine. The interior boiler fills up with water while its on to some degree, or you can fill it manually. Espresso machines have their own boilers

I came from a Breville Oracle Touch which was semi automatic. I had it for years! While it served me really well and I truly enjoyed it, it always frustrated me the inconsistent results. The hardest part is truly the puck prep, for someone who comes from automated grinding, dispensing and tamping. I

Well....I took the plunge yesterday. Jumped on the Jet train. I was looking at this, Jura's, and the Oracle Dual Boiler. Ultimately, I decided to do something I dont always do, and make the budget conscious decision. It's too early for a complete review. But its slightly smaller than the Oracle Touc

Looks like my Breville (I have the Oracle Touch). Also, in a review video, they talked about it doing that, and they commented that this hadn't happened to them with other machines. I haven't noticed any issues with shot quality.

It seems that most Breville machines suffer the same. My Oracle Touch is very inconsistent, despite enormous efforts to resolve.

I had 20g on my Breville Oracle Touch. TBH the intensity was a little strong. I am happy that the stock basket on the Gaggia is 18g. I am only loading 16g and get an impression from the shower screen screw. The strength of the coffee is much more to my liking. I know I can mess with ratios of water/

My wife bought me a DeLonghi 10+ years ago, which has been fine, but I’ve always wanted more control. That machine was enough to stop drinking instant. If I’m ever offered a drink at someone’s house, I always opt for tea, as cannot bring myself to drink instant. So… I guess it begs the question, wha
