This is my first Francis Francis Espresso Machine, and it is a cinch to use. It will be able to do everything I want! For those mornings when you’re too tired and busy to make your own coffee, the Francis Francis Machine comes ready to do the job. I love coffee. Unfortunately, great coffee can be hard to find. So I decided to take matters into my own hands and make my own coffee. This super automatic espresso so easy, for example:
1. The machine performs really well. Warm-up is only a few minutes, and going from brew to frothing temperature is actually really quick. You can only pull 1 shot at a time, but for my usual routine – 4 shots and frothing – this works pretty well.
2. If you buy this machine, you will have perfect espresso or latte etc with ease, and a very good sturdy machine. Please be sure to invest the time to read the manual thoroughly to prevent damage to your machine and avoid frustration.
3. This is really considered an entry-level / beginner espresso machine. This machine uses a pressurized portafilter, which basically means it is much more forgiving to novice mistakes (coffee grind for instance).
4. The machine is sturdy and solid, and it cost-effectively delivers excellent coffee every single day. Prime your machine before and after making espresso to keep it clean inside and keep it working properly.
5. Friends are always impressed with the quality of espresso and cappuccino I make at home. It is a robust and simple piece of machinery that produces an amazing espresso.
6. If you buy this machine, you will have perfect espresso or latte etc with ease, and a very good sturdy machine. Please be sure to invest the time to read the instruction manual thoroughly to prevent damage to your machine and avoid frustration.
You still end up with great espresso for around a dollar a shot, which is pretty good when you consider what you pay for it at the coffee house. The steamer work really well, too. We couldn’t be happier with our purchase—and isn’t it kinda cool and decco looking? Pretty, hard-working and low maintenance. What more could you ask for?I am very happy with my purchase. From my experience I have no trouble recommending the Francis Francis Machine to anyone who is taking their brew seriously! I am really happy with it and am enjoying the freedom this machine gives me.
