I always sweep my pockets with a 1 inch bushing .. that you hold boring bars in. Reason is the mazaks we have when you co-axial indicate the front of the pocket. It’s different throughout the pocket ..and 99% of the time you have a bushing in a boring pocket so why not indicate that
Can you guys make a simple milk steamer using pump pressure to match the way this one looks would look striking both on a counter would look like an alien espresso setup!
Can place directly on steady mug when out hiking and there’s no need to carry the base! Its ultra portable but its shape makes it easier to pull shots and more insulated for better extraction temps! I want one of these soo bad!
If all your tools are out the Turret, I am wanting to know if I put a knife tool into Tool position 1 , do you set the X value on the work shift or in the Geometry, I know the Z is measured on work shift Tool one ,the rest would be on Geometry not too sure could someone answer my question thank you
Temp strip , logo on the band -what ? I must get them. Mine arrived yesterday w /o the logo on the band so I'll just mark it with a paint pen. Thanks for the tip for us newbies. Wait, maybe the band is inside out? Let me go check.....
Although the grease is food grade, I'm a little bit concerned about its ingredients. Can I use vegetable oil instead? Will it have same effect? will it influenece the taste? Thanks
Hello, I am interested in your product because of the very nice workflow. Will there be an update to the V2.3 this year? Or has there any improvement over 3 years? I am simply curious
We’ve started welding the cylinder to the top plate for added strength & to eliminate a gasket, we also added a groove to the the lock right to keep the band in place! Outside of external pieces or attachments we don’t have any planned updates to the unit itself!
@@audetnicolas totally! It fits pretty well on most kettles, too. We’re working on an adapter to make it fit nearly all currently too. 🖤 Shout with any more questions, yo.
How many grams of water fit in the cylinder? And is is necessary to preheat the cylinder for lighter roasts? How much °C are absorbed by the cylinder, if it’s at room temperature and boiling water is filled in?
You can fit roughly 50g in the cylinder; which is designed around a 1:2 ratio. Although not necessary, we suggest pre-hearing the Forge by placing it on top of your kettle with the lid off while your water heats up.
Thanks Jayson, we're stoked to be back! Currently the only difference is we've added a groove to the lock ring so the band doesn't fall off & we've started laser welding the cylinder to the top plate to eliminate unthreading of the unit as well as the need for a gasket in that junction. However; keep your eyes peeled for some new product additions in the coming months!
9 bars is a decent amount of pressure. Im curious to see a small person, say somebody around 110lbs use this machine. Especially if its sitting on a countertop while in use.
this looks great. I worked on a lathe machine for 10 years when I was younger. I woulld like to to make myself a similar one. do you sell them? I like proper coffee I like espresso machines but just returning from a short holiday where I could not find a single good coffee, I need something like this. just a question, is there a reason why the cilinder is small in diameter. could it be larger and shorter. i can see it is easier to press and squeze. have you tested different diameters an just came across with the best option. bless you. keep up the good work.

I've ran a kyocera high feed mill, unfortunately it wasn't all that reliable and is very sensitive to any small extra stock. Inserts (3 on the tool) would chip pretty quickly (20 parts or sometimes less) making it not that cheap. This one Helical end mill lasts quite a while (i use it to mill out the whole stock on rings too, haven't had to change it yet in about 60 parts) and is about as fast. I've heard Mitsubishi makes better high feed mills, but overall in stainless, solid carbide has been working better for me for whatever reason. I've heard the same from a few others, but I'd always be willing to consider a tool if a vendor stopped by with one to prove to me it was better. Helical rep did this and I went with them!
@@Espressoforge that's really good tool life for as much material as it looks like your taking. We use Mitsubishi feed mills and they work great, just dont run coolant with them it causes the inserts to chip prematurely due to heat shock.
@@Daniel-vq9zb yeah it could be that as my problem, I tried dry, but with the pocket I run here, chips will build up and then chip the inserts that way...if I had air blast or continuous air nozzle maybe it would work. I have heard that running too long dry can build up heat in the spindle too. Either way, at the moment I'm pretty happy with how this op is running! Luckily I don't have to push things to as fast as possible and can focus on process reliability and to a lesser extent tool life.
Yo Ben! We are back up & running with the Forge - they're available now and ready to ship at www.espressoforge.com, feel free to reach out here or at info@espressoforge.com w/ any questions! Cheers.
Seen it happen a bunch of times (such a familiar sound), but never caught it on video. Though, I've only had it happen a couple times after I started using Talon Grip jaws. Did it leave a mark? I always expect there to be a dent in the enclosure, but haven't actually found one yet.
@@Daniel-vq9zb LOL I hope not...well most of my parts now on the lathe are in 5C collets, so relatively been pretty good since then. Hopefully I don't need to put big diameter pieces back on the lathe!
