MrDentini said:Hey thank you for this tip, I didn't know the Dualit brand, and I'm seeing good heavy-duty products on their site. Do you know of an online reseller?
Thanks.
I won't be buying any other brand of toaster that's for sure,that crappy sproingy mechanism is what brakes on other toasters its flimsy but as you say the *levered "tilt-yer-toast-out" mechanism* works because its simple and well made, I also keep my ground coffee in a Kilner jar I keep the beans in the fridge but I think I'll take a leaf out of your book and get another Kilner jar for the fridge that's a good idearWiffWaff said:I've had a Dualit (4-slice) toaster for a good while now... expensive but much better with the levered "tilt-yer-toast-out" mechanism, rather than one of those sproingy devices that break after a couple of years. The toaster has lasted ten years and is therefore cheaper than the five nasty sproingy ones I would otherwise have got through.
In deference to the OP... also have a Dualit grinder. Although my coffee needs are quite modest (Bialletti moka pot and cafetiere) compared to some of the impressive expresso machines some have.... the difference to the grind is well worth it. I keep my coffee beans in Kilner jars and just put in enough beans for the individual cups I'm having, rather than keeping the beans in the hopper... mainly because I use different beans for different types of coffee.

Bought one for my Mother in Law for XMAS, shes 94 so I expect it won't be long before it's in our kitchen.

I have the feeling your right about that one sadly :s ( I did :icon_lol::icon_twisted: at your comment ) But when you do the maths at how long these toasters work for I figure that there's a 99.9999999999999999999999% chance that that toaster will find its way into your kitchen ( unless some fucker gets to it first,)
I seem to remember when my grandparents died there was much five fingered discounts from his house by family members :dodgy:

I'm the only one with keys to her house
Back to coffee, I'm sitting here now enjoying a lovely Double Espresso made with Happy Donkey Sumatra Mocha Coffee Beans.
I'll be in London next Wednesday so will be able to pick up some more beans from Monmouth
