Help with shot adjustment
Shot too fast, grind finer, too slow, grind coarser. Remember, a change in grind size takes two times three shots before it fully appears in the cup due to grinder retention. Don't use the recommendation, even Ninja say "... If you wish to follow..." not that you must follow. I would definitely use

Pro or Luxe?
They are all called Ninja Luxe Café, then there is the:- ES501 Essential ES601/ES655 Premiere/Costco variant ES701 Pro I had two Pro's. If I was to buy one again, which I won't, I'd go for the ES601/ES655 as the Integrated tamper on the Pro is just one of its Achilles heel's. Through many months of

Ratio not correct on the luxe pro.
That's the issue with the Ratio Fault, inconsistent amounts of water being dispensed, but it's important to rule out other issues, for me the most important of these being puck prep. As I said earlier I had two 701's and during my research to make sure the issues I was having weren't me, puck prep c

Share the good and the bad
I had the ES701 until it went faulty. Coming from a nespresso style machine, it was not compatible for me. Though there was lots of fun when you were in the mood to dial in shots and steam milk and make latte art, for me, ultimately it was a PITA in the mornings. I used fresh beans from a local roas

I have the es701, pro. I got this one, https://www.amazon.com/Bottomless-Portafilter-Ninja-Luxe-Compatible/dp/B0FH9BGQML/ because of a promo for their aluminum funnel https://www.amazon.com/Portafilter-Funnel-Ninja-Luxe-Cafe/dp/B0F8VJHNVN/ for free. 2.5 issues: The handle is screwed on so the metal

Beans
Absolutely, I use one all the time on my Meraki, but a puck screen will not stop channeling, it'll help. One of the selling points of the ES701 was the integrated tamper, after Barista Assist (BA), it is the worst invention known to the coffee machine world. I know, I had two of them. Let me try and

ES601EU VS ES701EU -honest review-
Yeah, I totally agree. The ES701 never had consistent water flow, and the double shot was always sour no matter the grind level, water temp, or how good the prep was. I switched to the ES601 and honestly I like the control way more. The steam wand isn’t as good as the one on the ES701, but I don’t r
