I got my first proper machine just over a year ago so it has been a year of discovery for me, self levelling tampers, various electrical and manual hand grinders (k6 and KUltra)
But Iād say the duo however takes the crown, itās led me to producing consistent repeatable shots from various coffees back to back and back again. It really does work well for switching beans regularly.
Iād like to give the runner up crown to the Fracino Cherub,what a marvellous but industrial bit of kit it is, easy to work on (needed a few repairs), strong (too much even) steaming power and most of all easy to rinse off back to back shots in companyā¦I know they say to do a cafeteria when you have to give out many coffees, but if it means I can hide in the utility for 20mins to make espresso based drinks Iāll take it :p
I have toyed with changing the cherub to a fancy profiling machine, Bianca perhaps, but Iām not sure how much it will benefit my medium dark preferring pallet at all.
