Review on ☕ Flair Espresso NEO: The Ultimate Manual Lever Espresso Maker for Home Use (Gray) by Nap Olivas

The only thing I didn't like is that it only brews one shot at a time, but it doesn't look like there clearly is one either Two shot version So I think I got the best of my nights. I'm really enjoying drinking a quality espresso from the comfort of my kitchen for the first time in my life. You should get an equally expensive grinder as the bean range isn't much larger than what they recommend for 15-17g of coffee. I've read that crema helps determine if you're drinking real espresso or not. If you see light brown foam at the top, rest assured that you are following the directions and it will taste great. I also highly recommend pouring hot water over a large piece of metal (the piece you place on the floor) before use. ...the part where you end up pouring water, I mean! this piece of metal. I do not know why. The only 3 things that bother me are: - it only brews for 1 shot at a time, but it's easy enough to clean that I can do the 2nd shot afterwards and in less time - the coffee bean pack. so in cramped quarters I have to tap a lot to get them out and I usually just scrape them off with my finger when my roommate is still asleep (which is hot but not always necessary) - not really much room for 15+ - 17g of coffee so either my scale is wrong or there is barely enough room for the recommended amount of coffee. However, they recommend taking a coffee can with you. I could just start using a butter knife to scrape off anything that's stuck. And they offer a coffee grinder and a certain amount of ground beans which I just ordered so I'm curious if those 15-17g will fit in and pack a little tighter to leave a little more room when fully ground . Overall it beats the last espresso machine I owned which apparently wasn't even a legal espresso machine! Since he never foamed and now I see him as a cheap kureg.
