Will that not be an issue as brew group care is critical to Superauto performance and survival?

Posted Sun Jan 22, 2012, 2:08pm Subject: Appreciate the updated Gift List - a great "Best in Category" guide   Thanks, Mark, for the updated Gift List. I use it as a starting point when I am contemplating an upgrade. (Yes, I use the Gift List for myself, too!) For example, I used your updated list to help me select a new grinder, to accompany my new Breville Dual Boiler. I do not rely on a single recommendation, but it makes an excellent starting point to dig deeper. A "Best in Category" guide is very helpful, since I'm otherwise unable to sort through all of the CoffeeGeek data and reviews to find a collective, ranking. (Hints on how to achieve this? New CoffeeGeek feature?) Robert back to top Gobstopper Senior Member Joined: 16 Jul 2007 Posts: 24 Location: Bay Area Expertise: I like coffee Espresso: PID'ed Silvia, Gaggia...

Why didn't that make the holiday list this time? And, when he writes that he had to downgrade teh Hario nouveau siphon because it was 'dumbed down', what does that exactly mean? back to top vetoni653 Senior Member Joined: 8 Mar 2012 Posts: 4 Location: Stuttgart Expertise: I love coffee Posted Fri Mar 23, 2012, 1:44am Subject: Re: CoffeeGeek Holiday Gift List - Over $75 Suggestions by Mark Prince   I am curious about that to back to top view previous topic | view next topic | view all topics Discussions > Articles > Columnist... > CoffeeGeek...   updated topics   new posts   new unanswered     search   faq   sign up   Not Logged in: log in Discussions Quick Jump: Select Espresso Discussions --Espresso Machines --Lever Espresso Machines --Grinders - Espresso --Espresso Mods and Restorations --Espresso Blends --Questions and Answers --Latte Art and Etching --Barista Jams Around the World --General Discussion Coffee Discussions --Machines and Brewing Methods --Home Roasting Talk --Questions and Answers --General Discussion Columns, How-Tos, and Reviews --Holiday Gift List Feedback --CoffeeGeek Columnist Feedback --Detailed Review Feedback --Products First Look Feedback --Quickshot Review Feedback --Guide Article Feedback --How-To Article Feedback --CoffeeGeek Podcast Feedback Members Forum --Bug Reports and Suggestions --Buy, Sell and Trade --Retail Coffee Jobs Offered / Wanted Ads --Coffee Recipes --Cafe and Bean Reviews --CoffeeGeek Site Info and News --General Off Topics World Regional --United States West --United States Central --United States East --Western Canada --Eastern Canada --United Kingdom --Western Europe --Eastern Europe, Nordic Countries, and Russia --Central and South America --Australia, New Zealand and Asia Symbols: = New Posts since your last visit      = No New Posts since last visit     = Newest post Forum Rules: No profanity, illegal acts or personal attacks will be tolerated in these discussion boards.
