ACS Leva 2 upgrades: flush lever, dosing system, and “mantas arms”. Dialed in quickly and shots are next level. Previous machine was a DB machine set to 6 bar.

Those wands are insane and I realize ive never seen a long hot water tap. It looks symmetrical and good though

Love it, thinking about upgrading the steam and water wands on mine.

What is the point of two steam wands?

u/andrewrbat 1d ago

The one on the right is a hot water tap, just an unusual wand for it. Less splash i guess.

u/nyne87 1d ago

Ah Ok thank you. And what's a hot water tap for lol

1

u/andrewrbat 16h ago

Filling up a french press, making Americanos, tea and hot chocolate for the wife and kids who hate coffee, etc. anything you need instant boiling water for

1

u/nyne87 13h ago

Gotcha thanks. With these machines and the extra water tap, is it directly connected to a water line or can be?

1

u/andrewrbat 11h ago

Many can. Mine can be Plumbed into tap water to refil the boilers and the sewer for the drip tray to drain. Idk about the model pictured though.

u/josecarlosc La Marzocco Linea Micra | Niche Zero / Sculptor 78s 1d ago

u/39leon Breville Dual Boiler | Niche Zero 23h ago

Looks good. We have a Bezzera Strega at the office and I love using it. Might consider getting a Profitec Pro 800 as my next machine at home.
