Wow. I freaking love this. The price tag seems prohibitive at first but once you use it, you’ll never go out for coffee again. I’m truly hooked. Everything is easy to use and understand. Be patient your first few tries pulling espresso. Practice and waste a few pulls to get comfortable- the guide that’s given isn’t very good as far as grind coarseness and dose level- use the guide for temp controls for sure. The pictures are what you need to look at- color and speed. I use the filtered water from my fridge to fill the basin- in my experience- if you have hard water- you absolutely want to use filtered water to reduce the amount of descalings you do. A++++++ product.

So happy with our purchase. Machine is easy to use and makes amazing espresso and coffee drinks. Saving so much money by making my drinks at home. Even better that we got it half off on a daily deal promotion.

Produces Great espresso and crema. My only complaint is that it can't produce shots back to back, it needs a few minutes to cycle through. On the plus side it's highly customizable to give you the perfect grind size and amount and temperature.
