Espresso Series 1

They shipped thousands of pre-orders last week, and most people who pre-ordered are probably coffee nerds who are on Reddit, not just average consumers. Given that context, I don’t think 6 DOA posts indicates a huge problem… it’s less than half a percent of the number they shipped. People rave about

I have been hesitant to consider the ES1 (after seeing loud voices re: the Aiden). The response here now has me considering it. Things will always break. Service should not, and it seems Fellow is on it.

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

So right now is a good time to start browsing the buy and sell forums/EAF discord. People are starting to get their Zerno Z2 and are going to be parting with the Z1 with multiple burr sets.

Love mine, but I did get the extended warranty (new product, not sure how it will hold up). Some small(ish) known issues though... Volumetric mode is set badly out of the box and needs adjustment if you want to use it (I don't, so it's just off anyway), there's a fair amount of water waste at startu

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
