Long answer (my reasoning): I’ve had the ascaso for 6 years now and it still makes excellent espress

Würde auch keine Single Dosing Mühle empfehlen. Diejenigen die keine Erfahrung mit Siebträgern haben, werden darauf nicht viel Lust haben. Eher Kaffeebohnen wählen die für die breite Masse gut schmecken, vielleicht etwas dunkler geröstet und dazu eine Grind by Weight Mühle wie die Fiorenzato Allgrou

Yeah, for a while I also looked at the Elizabeth instead. I really didn’t like the looks, but for the price it seems like a much better machine.HX machines feel like they’re getting phased out, to be honest, they have too many limiting factors! I’d much rather have a machine like the Ascaso Steel Du
