Review on 🍵 15 Bar Espresso Machine with Milk Frother Wand, 850W High Performance Coffee Maker with 1.5L Removable Water Tank - Ideal for Espresso, Cappuccino, Latte, Machiato - Perfect for Home Baristas by Richard Cunningham

Hello! I'm a former barista who was looking for a cheaper alternative to the daily spend at Starbucks. I did a lot of research before deciding on this particular topic. I'm the guy who reads every product review before buying, so here we go! First, the price can't be beat. For $100 I can make a delicious latte on the go and save money. The size is really compact so it takes up little space. Pros: - Very compact - Beginner friendly - Delicious espresso - Easy to clean - Quick start. It takes about 1 minute to heat up. Cons: - Not very heavy so I have to hold the machine with my other hand when removing the portafilter. Actually it doesn't matter. The steam wand is very short, so if you're buying a steamer, buy a 12 oz. The tube creates more foam than fresh milk, so microfoam/latte art is not really suitable. Again, for most, it doesn't matter. tips! - Do not buy a separate rammer. The one that comes with the kit is perfect and all you need. It's plastic, but don't press it hard. It also comes with a measuring spoon on the other end. It only leaks if you don't empty the bottom bowl, which can fill up pretty quickly. If you empty it immediately after use, you won't have a problem. I usually fill up the water tank after I've made 3 hot lattes. That is, pumping clean water after steaming the milk if I want to make another batch according to the manual. - Turn off and unplug it when not in use! - Don't pack your coffee so hard! If you take a sip and find that the espresso comes out in drops rather than a steady stream, you can release the pressure. After tinkering and doing a few practice recordings, you'll find the perfect rhythm. Save coffee grounds for your garden! I hope this helps someone who has doubts about this wonderful machine!
