Ditto here. I also upgraded from the Silvia (on a timer) to the Brewtus a year ago.
I leave my Brewtus on a timer to turn on from 8am - 12pm every day so I have a bit of leeway to have my first espresso at 8:30 and still be able have another before noon. So far it's been a year with no issues. Yw On Mon, Feb 28, 2011 at 12:50 PM, Vinalopo <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > I own the same machine since January.
