    About 10 years ago I sold my Rancillio Silvia and a lever machine (can’t remember the brand, the logo had a bridge). At the time I needed money and counter space. I saved my Mazzer SJ though! This little machine might be the perfect thing to allow me to get back into pulling shots. I’ve missed it. I was researching the lever machines with no boiler(ie Flair), but this little fella may fit my needs even better. I’ve never left coffee….have always roasted my beans and make a pour over daily. The home barista space has changed so much in 10+ years! I added a PID to my Silvia and used non fancy tools like cut yogurt cups and dissecting needles instead of WDT. lol Glad I found your channel recently. Very good stuff! Makes me excited about coffee again.

    Crazy that it has taken this long for the mid to high home espresso machines to adopt this technology given that: 1. Waiting for the boiler to come up to temp is among the most annoying things about using a machine at home that isn't kept on all the time 2. We have had tankless / boiler-less tech capable of heating enough water to run the hot water supply for an entire house for many years already

    You're wrong about Normcore tamper, it has 2 springs one of which is so soft that it doesn't skew the result much if at all and that's the one that is responsible for depth.

    For those guys of MARO, I would suggest them to make the API 100% open for local use only. this would be extremely useful for those in the smarthome space, who like to keep data on everything. and are not so onto having YET ANOTHER APP especially with home-assistant, where you can setup your espresso machine trough your smarthome instead of another app

    Thank you again Lance. Although I am very susceptible to premature upgraditis, I actually need a machine. Still rocking my Breville Duo Temp Pro. No control of anything. Anyhow, I'm really interested in the tech / efficiency side of not going full boilers as Lance mentions. I'd appreciate anyone that has any advice or suggestions to that extent.

    Hello, I really like your channel, very technical, I’m looking for some guidance. I had the Breville oracle touch for a couple of years and it kept breaking, I’m looking to get a different machine , I’ve been watching reviews and I’m between the Bianca v3 and the Sanremo cube , but can’t decide, I’m looking for a reliable machine, that makes good coffee, about 3 cups a day. I like the features on the Bianca, but don’t necessarily need them,looking for best build quality and reliability, is one better than the other ?

    After reading more comments from buyers, I can’t believe anyone would consider this machine even if it were less money. So many better options out there especially in higher end machines that can last for decades as long as you maintain for longevity. But hey if you’re happy then that’s great!

    Seems like all these new machines & grinders are getting pumped out of china with more features and better bang for buck than from well established brands. It's great for us who would've otherwise never gotten into the hobby because of cost. I wonder if other brands are now feeling the pressure to cut costs and turn down the quality in order to compete.

    Thank you. Thank you. Thank you! Great review and I just ordered mine here in Thailand on Lazada for $232 USD including shipping. Ive been in the market for a new machine since the steam wand on my 2.5 year old GemiLai Model CRM3605 snapped off. A cheap plastic connection inside the top section of the wand started splitting and leaking then finally snapped off. Also, in the brew cycle, for some reason the pressure now won’t build past 3 bars. Meanwhile, this HiBrew H10A has all the features I’ve been looking for in a moderately priced machine. After much research I was unable to find anything even close to the features of this machine. So lucky I stumbled onto this review. Can’t wait to receive the HiBrew. I’ll be using this excellent expert review as my guide in setting it up and using it!!!! Lance, thank you again for this excellent review! I’m now a subscribed fan.

    I have been experimenting with slow feeding on my k-ultras and have seen impressive results. My pour over brew times have cut back by 1 minutes which means I will need to grind much finner. I can also visually see a huge difference with less fines in the grinds

    Hey Lance, thanks for your content. This has been the review i've looked most forward too of all time, as im really struggling to decide between this and the Bianca V3 - and i'm not certain I feel more enlightened. In this video you advice against E61's, but your review of the Bianca is quite positive. What would be your verdict on the two?
