Continue to wait for fellow espresso series one, or move on to something else? [$3,500]
Reliability of Series 1 is our number 1 priority. The reason for the shift in mass production was so that we didn't need to make the machine get a performance hit to meet our goals. We accelerate life test everything to meet a MINIMUM 5 year bar (this doesn't mean the product breaks after 5 years, i

lol this thing always getting hate on here. I preordered mine as soon as I saw it mostly because of how great the Aiden has been for us. My first espresso machine was a vintage dual switch La Pavoni Europiccola. Bought it on eBay in 2018. It’s the only espresso machine I’ve ever owned. I learned how

Does anyone know if the Pesado High Diffusion Espresso Shower Screen fits the Fellow ES1?
Sorry, I don’t, hopefully Fellow will reply. I’ve preordered my ES1 here in the UK and am quite excited and looking forward to delivery (Summer). I’m interested to know if Fellow think it needs an upgrade. I’d like to think that the design process has taken this in to consideration. My current machi

Espresso machine upgrade suggestions [<$4000]
If you want to get the most out of your light to medium-light beans, the Fellow ES1 and Decent are the two clear winners. If anyone tells you that pre-infusion and flow control don't make a difference for light roasts, they don't know what they're talking about. I owned a Decent before buying a Mini

Out with the old, in with the new new
No prob, thanks for the comment. There is a plethora of tools in the drawers to keep things tidy. And more cups and brewers than I can display. It’s a little crowded on the shelves, but I dig the color dichotomy. Still awaiting the fellow guided tamper and dosing funnel. Without the latter, it’s a l

CF64 just came in today.
Yes, still really happy with it. Works great. I got it from df64coffee.com when it first came out with the early purchase discount. I ordered the fellow ES1, so I think this will pair well from a design perspective as well.

Opus 2 Best Buy
I got a chance to play around with one of these at a fellow es1 class. let me tell you, for $200, there is nothing on the market even close to it. the stepless adjustment is maybe a touch too firm, but the action is smooth and its the right balance between dialing in to exactly where you want it, bu

Frozen display issues
I deleted my other thread, on my own volition. This is on my own after reflecting about the issues I was having with the firmware, and felt I was a little harsh on the title of the thread saying there was a degradation in performance, which really wasn't the case, just a glitch in the firmware, and

Slayer Espresso Profile for ES1
Hailie set up a similar profile for the Cat&Cloud Fellow drop right after ES1 release. I believe it’s: 20s pre infusion at 5ml/s Ramps up to 9 bar for 10s Ramps down to 6 bar. Of course 5ml/s is way more than 1.5ml/s but based on the results of that profile, I’m pretty excited to try yours. Thank yo
