Anyway, my wife got this from a friend who wasn’t using it anymore. I’m still experimenting to find the right settings, but the third attempt came close.

Do you know how well they serviced/maintained this?
Would check for scale buildup in the boiler.
Water you use makes a big difference for keeping the boiler clean and how the coffee tastes.
Mentioning this to be safe.

See Botz being used or bags for sell in a few coffee shops, trying 2 of them. Very small roaster.
So far so good

She maintained it well. I’ll certainly keep up on using a descaler.

My results are getting decent, but I’m not going bottomless anytime soon.

i've been considering several options including the Rancilio, but lack of PID and OPV are considerations even though it's probably not much of a big deal

I bought a kingrinder k2 after watching hoffmans video that caused the k1 to be sold out in 10 minutes.

But i can't figure out how to adjust the grinder. Theres things online that say 100 clicks but like apparently a whole turn is 10 clicks? I tried grinding this am and all i got was dust and after about 3 minutes i knew it wasnt right. Tried more adjustments and i only unscrewed the bolt at the bottom.

Any help?

Hmm.... Sounds odd. There should be 10 clicks for every 360 degrees of rotation and, I believe, up to a total of 10 complete rotations. How much difference in the grind are you seeing between, say, 1 full rotation away from bottom and 9 full rotations away?
