DF54 grinder vs Eureka Mignon Specialita? With the LELIT Mara X

I recently purchased a LELIT Mara x and although my DF54 grinder seems to be holding up well I love the idea of having a hopper and a grind by time as my grinder cam sometimes have a lot of retention and sometimes isn’t the most consistent, don’t get me wrong my DF54 is definitely more than capable for my machine but the FOMO is killing me. Is it worth it for me to upgrade to the eureka mignon specialita or stay with my current DF54?

Do I make it finer? [Lelit Mara X]

I’m back!! Tastes a lot better than my other shots that ran a lot faster so I know I’m on the right track, it ran at 27 seconds I got 36g out and I used a dose of 18g.
It tastes a lot sweeter and smells a lot nicer but there’s still a pinch of sourness ? Does that mean I go that bit finer ? I’m using a DF54 grinder and a medium roast blend. Is the bar pressure correct ? Or is it too high?

Don’t give up!!!

CANT BELIEVE IT! so happy!!!! This is for anyone who is sooo nervous I passed today first time with 3 driving faults!!
Once was for stalling, another one was for correcting my parallel park and the final one was for not checking my blind spot!!!
Honestly when she asked me the tell me question I started crying because of how nervous I was!! So don’t give up keep going!! I thought I failed multiple times especially when I hit the curb! It was very light and I wasn’t going fast and I didn’t even get a driving fault for it!! It went by super quick just keep breathing and chat to your examiner!! It was torrential raining too which made me even more nervous but you can do this!! I think I did about 44 hours and a few hours independently in my own car which really helped!!

Avonmouth Bristol test

Hi I’ve got my test coming up In a few weeks, it’s at 2:42pm and my instructor said I possibly won’t be doing the big 3 multi lane roundabouts because of the time of my test as it would be busy with HGVS, just coming on here to see if anyone had a test at Avonmouth around the same time and how was the route? As I am praying for an easy test route! It’s my first driving test! And also let me know what routes you’ve had at other times too. I’ve been doing lots of practice but I know it’s quite easy to fail a driving test but hoping to pass as I already have a car. Cheers!
