Legato Espresso Machine

I just got a turin legato v2 and DF54 for a budget beginner setup for around the same cost (both open box for a slight discount) a month ago and am very happy with it

Just gonna say that the grinder is arguably more important of the two though less so if you’re making milk drinks. I’ve got a Gemilai 3007Z (same as the Turin Legato V2 etc) that I got for $450 shipped. My grinder is a df54 that I got in the first wave and it’s been pretty decent for the price besid

I put a switch bot on my Turin Legato V2 --works with Bluetooth app on my phone. I wake every day 4:30 to 5:00 am. Espresso machine is set to on for 4:15. Good to go -- Turin Legato V2 is the same as the Gemilai 3007 Z or MiCoffee Apex V2 with an automatic setting, simple means if you're using the s

I'd not get that scale. I'd look at other grinders. The Turin Legato V2 is a great machine. You can set and forget or fiddle around. It's very solid.

I'm partial, but I'm super happy with my Apex V2/Turin Legato V2. I will say I've never used the steam wand, but it had all the features I really wanted that were only in higher end or modded machines. I've had it for ~18 months and have had zero issues.

The Bambinos are best for people who want an espresso without (fussing with) a machine, but still having the quality that can't be obtained with a superautomatic. For more control (e.g. temp., pressure), you might want to look at the Lucca Tempo at Clive Coffee. Likewise, the Turin Legato v2.

The Turin Legato V2 (which has PID) is marketed under multiple names--thus you may find it under a differing name in Europe. I posted the typologies (a few) under my original reply. for the $ and home use--wow (PID, pressure control and accessible flow control if wanted). That said it's not a tank l

The Turin Legato V2 lets you set up one pull volume--it's set by time not volume. You dial in your pull volume on the manual setting , to get your perfect shot--by measuring time and weight on a scale---then you very very easily set time on the automatic unit. I switch between two volumes by simply

some other details missing from the Turin Legato V2. It has flow control as well as OPV. It came with two steam tips-both work very well. Drip Tray is easy to remove and hasn't been a problem- I release water to heat up the head. I routinely spray the milk steamer before using it and after. I empty

I am now about a week or two on the Turin Legato V2. 1) No regrets. 2) first things I did was set OPV. You use the back flow stopper--black thing (rubber) -put it in a basket , put portafilter in and so easy to set. I went with 9 bars. 3) Set water flow (the recessed screw to the left of the portafi
