    Looks great! My Iberital is on the way and I'm hoping to add miss Silvia in a couple of months :-)

    Let us know how you get on.

    How are you finding the dosing with the chamber?

    Not bad, I really considered the doserless but heard reports that having a doser was somewhat less prone to mess. I'm going to need to get a little cleaning brush to sweep out the funnel into the dosing chamber.

    I'd also prefer it if the portafilter holder on the grinder actually held the portafilter in place for when i'm whacking the dosing lever!

    A nice setup. Don't keep those beans in the grinder hopper too long
