  • Perfect amount of manual in an automatic espresso machine
Color: Silver
I have been using it for about a week. I have wanted it for about 2 years, since I saw it at a William Sonoma and tried a sample and loved how it operated. I have a Saeco super automatic machine that I have used every day for over 10 years. It is slowly breaking (display stopped working, water tank occasionally leaks, can't run the decalcifying program anymore). So, I didn't need this machine now. But, I was going to need it. The Saeco is a workhorse and I never expected to last as long as it has. I thought the coffee tasted fine from the Saeco. But, I realized it tasted like crap once I got this machine. Very easy to set up. There are a few things to know about operating it that requires reading the manual. But, day to day operation is pretty simple. It takes way longer to get ready than my Saeco. But, you can easily program it to turn on at a designated time. The main display is more old school than it needs to be. In this day and age, they can use something more than an old school lcd display. For some of the functions, if you don't know what it supposed to be displaying, you won't understand it. Probably used it for the aesthetic. I really like the manual part of this machine. It is still essentially an automatic machine. But, you have an espresso basket to put in one port for the grinds to be dispensed into and tamped. Then, you move it to the other port and it makes the coffee. If you make a triple cappuccino, like I do, it is a bit more work than pressing the espresso button 3 times, like I did on my old machine. With this, I have to move the basket from one port to the other, then bang out the grounds in the included barista ground disposal thing, rinse it off and start the cycle again and do that 3 times. You also have to move the cup for the coffee off the machine when you remove the espresso basket or you risk knocking it over. That takes slightly more time than a fully automatic machine but it is more the attention it requires. If you want to multitask while the machine does all of the work, this machine is not for you. One nice feature that saves time is that you can froth the milk while the espresso is being made and you can do that hands free. So, compared to my Saeco, the active time making a beverage is about the same, since the Saeco required my attention in frothing the milk. I think this machine provides the perfect amount of manual interaction in an automatic machine - and the interaction that I want. I would love to get a shiny La Pavoni and a professional grinder, learn the perfect amount of pressure to tamp and have that for the weekend and a fully automatic machine for the work week. But, I don't have the money or the counter space for that. This machine gives me close to both experiences. I get to use an espresso basket (which makes it feel more like an authentic coffee making experience) but still not have to worry about tamping it perfectly and watching the coffee come out and stopping it when it makes the right amount. Yet, you can still experiment with the time for the water flow to control the strength of the coffee. You can control the water temp, the tamping pressure, the grind and a bunch of other options. Or, you never have to fool with those settings. Did I mention it makes amazing coffee? It does. It tastes incredible and the froth is perfect every time. I haven't even used espresso beans in it yet. I have been using some light roast that a local roaster made and was given to me as a gift mixed with some Philz dark roast that I had left over. Only comment/complaint is that you only have one portafilter size. It only dispenses a fixed amount of grounds. So, the button for a double espresso isn't really a double, compared to the single. At a coffee shop, they would use a different size filter for a single and a double and a different amount of coffee in each. So, if you want a full strength double, you really have to make 2 singles. You will have something different if you just let water flow through the same grounds for an extra 10 seconds. Small price to pay, though. Other comment/critique is that the milk can be tough to clean off the bottom part of the frother and you really should do it each time.you use the frother. Didn't have that issue with the Saeco that used a plastic frother tip. ... show more

  • Trips the Circuit breaker after two years.
Color: Silver
The media could not be loaded. It works only for about two years. After that, it starts to trip the circuit breaker when heating up the boiler. This is the second machine i got and they had the same issue. Unfortunately the warranty expires right before the issue. Not worth it for the price. The customer service said they repair it for $530+!! Well, I can buy a new machine with that money! I googled online and managed to find that it is typical to have leaks inside the machine. The first video shows one of the leaks (after I already changed one of the other hoses I was suspecting). What do you need to repair the leak: Please google and see all the videos showing how you can do this. I am just explaining what you need to do the job. You need a T15 screwdriver (tamper resistant number 15) and a long Philips screw driver to undo 6 screws (two on the back, two visible when you take the water tank out, two next to the lights). You need to be careful not to disturb the wires when you are taking off the top lid. You need o-rings size 007 (I bought a bunch here on amazon for 3$). I also used my tweezer too. Once you access inside the machine, you see two boilers with hoses (water-in, water-out, water-overflow hoses) and probs (to measure pressure, temperature etc). Usually, the problem is with hoses on the right boiler (hotter, to steam the milk). The o-rings become worn out and they leak water/steam. You need to take the hose out and replace the o-rings (check the videos available online). I am by no means a handy woman. But managed to repair the machine in less than an hour and 30$ to buy the screw drivers and the o-rings. ... show more

  • GREAT MACHINE, HAPPY CAMPER
Color: Silver
THIS IS A GREAT MACHINE. BACKGROUND, I HAD A GAGGIA SYNCHRONY SUPERAUTOMATIC FOR 5 YEARS, THEN SOLD IT. GOOD ESPRESSO, I THOUGHT AT THE TIME. BEEN A STARBUCKS DRINKER FOR TEN YEARS IN CHICAGO BEFORE GETTING MY FIRST ESPRESSO MAKER. CHARBUCKS IS MEDIOCRE, BUT THEY SHOWED ME THE POSSIBILITIES. I WAS LUCKY THAT MY GAGGIA TITANIUM LASTED 6 YEARS AND 10,000 SHOTS. THE TITANIUM SUPER AUTO MADE A SLIGHTLY BETTER SHOT THAN THE SYNCHRONY. I SPENT ABOUT 100 HOURS DOING RESEARCH ON SEMI-AUTO MACHINES, BECAUSE I REALLY BELIEVE ITS THE WAY TO GREAT ESPRESSO. ROCKET CROSSED MY MIND, BUT THE MESS AND BOTHER SEEMED TOO MUCH . I SAW TONS OF VIDEOS ON THE BREVILLE ORACLE MAKING ME BELIEVER. THIS IS THE ONLY HYBRID MACHINE THAT WORKS THIS SMOOTHLY , MAKING EXCELLENT COFFEE, WITH LITTLE FUSS. . BEEN TO TOP GRADE ROASTERS AND PLACED MYSELF IN FRONT OF BARRISTA SUPERSTARS ON $10,000 MACHINES. SOME SHOTS WERE GOOD OR GREAT, AND SOME BITTER AND SOUR. $2000 HURT A LOT, BUT I AM SUPER HAPPY. THE RELIABILITY RATING BY AMAZON AND OTHER TEST SITES WAS NEAR 80%. ESPRESSO MACHINES SEEM TO HAVE A 50-60% CUSTOMER PROBLEM RATIO. I PULLED MY FIRST FEW SHOTS WITH A POUND OF SPECIALTY JAVA ESPRESSO AUTHENTICO. IT WAS ROASTED 5 DAYS AGO. I SET MY THE BOILER TO 199 DEGREE TO STAY AWAY FROM A BITTER SHOT. TAMP PRESSURE 3 TAMP DURATION 4 I TRIED 20 SEC SINGLE SHOT, JUST TO TASTE IT. GREAT CREMA AND THE LEAST BITTERNESS OF ANY SHOT I EVER HAD. THEN TRIED A DOUBLE SHOT 28 SEC AND 30ML. THE POUR OUT OF THE SPOUTS ARRIVED AT THE 11 SECOND MARK. THE DOUBLE WAS VERY SMOOTH . I LOVE THIS MACHINE , SO GLAD I GOT IT. DID NOT SEEM TO HAVE A LOT OF TROUBLE GETTING GOOD SHOTS. MAYBE A LITTLE LUCK OR SOME EXPERIENCE. I LIKE THAT IT IS NOT MESSY AND EASY TO PROGRAM AND MAKE INSTANT CHANGES. I LOVE THE LOOK OF THE ROCKET 58 , BUT THIS IS THE MACHINE. FRESH BEANS ROASTED TO MED DARK AND 6-20 DAY OLD ROAST DATE. CLEAN WATER WITH LESS THAN 100 PPM MINERALS. ALSO JUST ORDERED A BOTTOMLESS PORTAFILTER TO SEE SHOT PRODUCTION AND TWEAK SHOTS MORE. IF THERE BE A NEGATIVE, IS THAT THE DOSAGE CAN'T BE CHANGED. I READ CHANGING TAMP PRESSURE HIGHER WILL MOVE IT UP 1 GRAM. I GUESS YOU ALSO CHANGE WATER VOLUME TO ADJUST TASTE. I CONSIDERED TEMPERATUE CHANGES FROM 194F TO 204 F COULD HELP. WITH USING THESE VARIABLES UNLIMITED COMBINATIONS WITH ROAST, AGE OF ROAST, DIFFERENT ASSORTED BEAN COMBO, DIFFERENT WATER, PRE-INFUSION OF THE GRIND, WATER VOLUME PER SHOT, A FEW GRAINS OF SALT ADDED, AND THINGS WE HAVEN'T THOUGHT OF................HMMMM. PERHAPS THE SO CALLED GOD SHOT MAY BE PULLED SOMETIME IN THE FUTURE. ITS GOING TO BE FUN TRYING AND LEARNING. WAS THINKING OF BUYING SOME KLATCH ROASTED WORLDS BEST ESPRESSO BEAN. ... show more
