UK import taxes for coffee gear post Brexit
Geezercdg replied to BobbyAxelrod's topic in Coffee Lounge
It was the grinder which I wanted to buy in the first place. (New Eureka XL) Interestingly I looked into buying said grinder from Doppio coffee in London and they offered to waive the carraige charge if I paid by bank transfer! I didn't. -

Sorry Jack I'm not sure what you mean? Are you saying you prefer the ECM Synchronika? -

Thanks for pointing me in the direction of these reviews, I have not seen these before. I'm glad I asked the question now as I had not seen much in the way of negative comments about the ECM Synch. What did you go to after the profitec 700 (and what grinder do you have) Im in the market for both. -
ECM Synchronika - about to pull the trigger

Thank you, its such a hard decision when your a newb like me. I can't seem to locate any discussions about this issue???? There are a few at this price point and I can't for the life of me see the wood for trees!!! -
I'm curious John. Did you ever consider an ECM Synchroninka? If so what made you cross them off your list?

Hi All I am about to pull the trigger on the above machine. Before I do what are peoples thoughts - am I making a big mistake and are there other machines beter at this price. A fellow member recently posted about a izzo alex duetto iv and as these are siilar prices I have been toying between the two. What is the considered wisdom of the gang?

First Impressions: Eureka Helios 80
Geezercdg replied to Philip HN's topic in Grinders | Machines | Accessories
Yes I was referring to the Mignon Specialita. The helios I was going to go for was the 65, but it's so big. I'm upgrading from a sage oracle (thought I'd do the grinder first!) Then Im after something decent but not sure what yet, possibly up to 2k. So open to ideas for that too. -

How are you getting on with it? I'm torn between this and the Specialita. -

Espresso coffee shop - anyone used post brexit?
Geezercdg replied to Geezercdg's topic in Coffee Lounge
I posted it once and was asked to put it here by Dave. I'm sorry. -
Espresso coffee shop have some great prices but want payment by bank transfer in advance, which on it's own makes me nervous. On top of that I have no idea how much import duty I'll now be liable for due to Brexit. Has anyone used them? If so did you pay by bank transfer?/or pay duty?

Seems there are threads on reddit where people in US can use a cc.

Yes, I agree. Also I have no idea how much duty I'll have to pay on top due to brexit.
