The learning curve is a bit steep, but for me it’s part of the fun. You control all the variables, which kind of forces you to learn about the whole espresso making process. Once you got the workflow down it’s not too bad.
Don’t get it if you expect a quick cup of espresso in the morning. Do get it if you like to fiddle with things and want go the extra mile to get the most out of your espresso.
Oh sure, it wouldn’t me my daily driver I guess, at least not the one for the first shot. But I’ve already got a decent espresso machine for that (plus 7 other coffee making contraptions), so the flair would be for the second and third short during the day. And a nice showpiece for sure.
