Mine arrived on Friday! totally unexpected, was expecting it end of March. That said, I did get an email from Meraki saying that "they where unable to intercept the machine after it started shipping" and they provided details of how to do the power firmware update if I come across any issues.
So far I haven't had any issues, but what I would say is the grind by weight is NOT +/- 0.2g its more like +/- 0.4g

This one came with the machine!

Mat was super cheap one from amazon https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0BLSNXDDV?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title

This actually came with the machine!
Flex007
That felt like a personal attack 😂but I get your point!

Thanks!

It’s a new company I (and many others) backed on kickstarter/indigogo. Pretty cool. Inbuilt scales for grind by weight, brew by weight, dual boiler, pre infusion, steam wand.

I’m an indigogo backer and got my machine on Friday. I’m based in london, Uk.
Looking forward to more people getting their machines. I’m struggling to get a good shot out of the machine so would like to try others feedback and tips.

What monitor mount are you using? Haven’t been able to find a decent one for two screens
Flex007
I had mine delivered yesterday and I'm already sending it back!
Flex007
Legend, found it. Thanks man!

Hi Mate, thanks for the response. I dont have a hardware calibrator and was just going to use any .icm files I could find to be honest. I'm not a content designer or doing any colour focused work, i'm just reading a lot of comments about how bad the out of the box saturation is and worried I wont enjoy the screen.
edit: where did you edit the red value to 95? was that in the OSD. I only see a slider in the MSI OSD that allows you to shift the values but how did you set it to 95?
Flex007
Thanks for sharing this man! just wondering how its going a month on? are you still using the same settings? happy with the monitor? any advice for a calibration novice.
Flex007
In the box you will find the monitor mount screws. you need to use these which raise the screwing area up and allows it to fit any vesa 100x100 mount.

Thanks man, appreciate the response. I couldn't find where i input stuff like Luminance in the OSD so i assume that's in the .icm file that I setup in Windows?
Flex007
Help me out with this dude, never done it before. Where exactly are you inputting these settings for the monitor? on the monitor OSD? in Windows or do you have another program?
thanks in advance

Dude I’ve been trying to find the three PCIe power cables in white with the combs but haven’t figured out where to get them from....where did you get them from and how did you configure them that way...build looks great btw

Wow, I got a 3080 really early on and sold on my 2070 super (exact same model) for £350. Perfect condition and only 6 months old at the time. That was the price range on eBay at the time but it looks like prices have gone way up since Oct last year
Flex007
Yes - I used it
I followed this video step by step - its very good https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D1N7ybY7aoE&t=1s&ab_channel=Tekify

Same, there initial feedback was it was not possible for people to apply the updates. That's why I found their message bizarre. They shared guides on how to apply the update yourself.
I'm based in the UK.
