Thanks! Yep, I got a bottomless, 20g basket and a puck screen too. Puck screen improved things a lot and the bottomless means I can just squeeze scales under. Plus, it looks cool.
GH Thermometer is great. Really easy to read and doesn't spoil the visual vibes like the temp strip do. I accidentally/slightly drunkenly bought the version that has interchangeable wire allowing you to switch and measure the temp inside the portafilter too (basically around 10°c or so higher).
@TW . Yeah, the blue gasket is the Teflon Isolator. It (and the GH Thermometer) came for an Italian guy on ebay. Cheaper than the Bong Isolator and a bit Heath Robinson but it seems to work. I'll colour the edges with a black marker when I get a chance as the blue bugs me!
