Hi there Bruno, I have the 3 phase 220V model w/ 83 mm. burrs and we have zero heat problems.
From what I gather the single phase 71mm 110V versions heat problems is not from the burrs directly but from starting and stopping repeatedly due to a capacitor start??
I sure there is some more info on that topic out there.
Price, call Terry @ espresso parts and tell em geir sent ya....
BTW, if you have 3 phase, do it!! geir oglend.

Hi Geir,
Thanks for the coffees the other day, (and the wise words.) You have a great shop and I will not be able to drive up island without a visit from now on! Drop by the Parsonage for a shot one of these days.
