Fellow Aiden: A Technical Masterpiece

[@aramse]

THINGS WE MISSED: • The companion app is now available and allows you to create, view, edit and share profiles way more easily but is still very barebones. • There's no help or beginner guidance built-in. Good UI usually helps with tool tips and suggestions that can be turned off. Things like grind size, temperature and pulse setting recommendations to make the advanced settings less intimidating for someone looking to experiment would be great. • As for filter papers you will need to tweak the settings and grind size to get that constant stream out. That being said I did prefer slower filters with the Aiden even though I love the really fast Cafec T90s for manual brewing. • If you look carefully you'll notice that none of the text on screen is properly centred. Ridiculous! • Most of the water tank opening is covered by the handle and it's near impossible filling it without getting splashes outside. • This should be obvious but you need to put good coffee, ground with a decent grinder in to get good coffee out. • In the US you get generic supermarket filter that will work perfectly. In India you can buy the Kalita NK102 filters for single serve.

[@luke9822]

This review was exactly the review I was waiting for. I realized in watching this that I'm not really looking for a pour over replacement because I rather enjoy the process, seeing how one bean draws at a particular grind setting vs others, it only takes a few minutes, and it has next to zero cleanup and maintenance. There are times when I'd like to make a batch for others, and I think the idea of just getting a dedicated batch brewer makes more sense.

[@6tuf85dyfu]

I have noticed my Aiden also trends towards over-extraction/astringency. I think the issue is two-fold: 1. Most of us brewing manually are obviously not pouring into a contained unit, we're pouring into an open air brewer. A lot of thermal energy is being lost to the ambient air. 2. Aiden's temperatures are what they say they are. When heating water in a gooseneck kettle, we're getting a temperature reading from the water at the bottom of the kettle. The water in the spout will be cooler by the time it's actually poured. This is to say that we need to recalibrate our thinking with Aiden. We might set a kettle to 93C, but we aren't aware that by the time we pour even moving quickly the spout temperature of the water is maybe only 89-90C. Great review as always!

[@KrishnenduKes]

Why would a cooler temperature over extract?

[@justapourguy]

@@KrishnenduKeshe’s saying you’re brewing colder on a kettle than you think you are. If you then set the Aiden to the temperature you aim for on your kettle, you’ll brew hotter than you normally do.

[@KrishnenduKes]

@@justapourguy Now I get it. Thanks.

[@6tuf85dyfu]

@@KrishnenduKes you have it backwards. Aiden brews hotter by virtue of being a closed system and it's precise water temperature. From the point where Aiden heats the water to where it pours it a much smaller distance than a gooseneck kettle. You lose a lot more than you think in terms of temp pouring from a kettle than you think you do.

[@jdgordon194]

Now this is the comprehensive review of Aiden I've been waiting for. Thank you.

[@braxtonjens7839]

I backed early, and I think Aiden is awesome. It’s easy and intuitive to use, and my wife and I like it better for single cups than the Original XBloom. Making profiles is easy. I did the same tests with the thermal probe and I was so impressed with the thermal stability and how it met the desired temp. I can say that I agree with the performance of Aiden. From 8-10 grams to full 1500ml batches are really good. Also, dialing coarser than you think you should, because Aiden extracts high.

[@brentroman]

Thank you for this review. I pre-purchased mine at Chicago Expo, and luckily got a walk through by Nick himself. I think the coolest thing here is the ability to get roasters to design their own profile and you be able to load those into your brewer when you get their beans. I do agree that the water before dose setting is a bit weird. I agree they should allow you to flip that when you wanted. (Especially when you are near the end of a bag of coffee). The thing I wish there was - would be the ability to know the grind size needed for a brew. This is not so intuitive. But, to be fair, it’s an issue throughout the industry. Closet thing I’ve seen is the kruve ruler. Anyway, I’m pretty much enjoying my Aiden. It REALLY helps on days when I don’t have the time to faff with a manual pour over. Also, I think their kettle/server is the best designed one I’ve ever seen and used with a batch brewer. The ability to switch out for your own on single serve is brilliant too!

I couldn't agree more with this review. It's both the greatest brewer of all time and the most annoying brewer I've ever owned. Like the ode I bet a gen 2 will fix most of the quirks. The three year warranty is nice and I bet a lot of people will be making claims. Those hinges don't feel like they'll last. Comparing it to something like a moccamaster is pretty wild. Yes this has awesome tech and makes great single serve coffee, but the moccamaster is the king of reliability. I question the long-term reliability of the Aiden.

[@aramse]

Absolutely. Which is why I ended the review asking for a Studio version. They got the brewing down they just need to improve the other stuff.

[@lm3718]

This is a brilliant review - I will wait for V2 I think - for me, the UI issues and build quality need to be improved.

[@mikni4069]

As others correctly pointed out, they use the circular screen likely because they are already using it elsewhere, it’s a pretty classic way of lowering R&D and manufacturing cost, secondly they likely defend it by saying it help streamline it with the form language of the other products. The knob also look very much like the one on my kettle But I agree having that screen on the kettle was fine because, well, it’s a kettle, there not really much it needs to do. On a machine this advanced, it is just an odd corner to cut and drastically reduce the user experience, as you really need a much larger screen and more physical control to ever want to dial in on the machine. I’ll likely purchase it once v2 is out, as there seems to be quite the few child diseases on it as with many new consumer products, but dos seem very promising once they ironed out all the small issues and weird design choices and fixed the UI I agree that machine definitely strike me as an app controlled machine, in that it seems a bit odd the app isn’t ready.

[@scalwi]

Great review -- I've been looking for a review that spent more time on the flavor & quality of the coffee than on the features. Thanks for this.

[@Fiendir]

Full disclosure; I've been awaiting the Aramse review to make up my mind on this damn thing 😁 It basically confirmed that yeah, the Aiden has very particular quirks. Buuut I'm willing to live with them in order to get as close to an hands-off manual brew as possible, while also having batch brews available for when larger company shows up uninvited (or I just need a big pot to keep me awake to enough to hit a deadline before the night is over...) Going to hold off for as long as my grubby hands can though, because my god does the software need improvement. Just because we can launch with very barebones and minimal software these days and update it later, doesn't mean that we should.

[@aramse]

I don’t think you’ll regret holding off for a bit if buggy, unresponsive software bothers you.

[@mjxx]

Thank you for the review Raghunath! You touch on all the points that I wondered about and you don't pull any punches. I will probably pass on this version (unless I can get it discounted) but hope for an improved Aiden 2 in a year or two. I got burned by the Kickstarter Xbloom; it looks and feels great, makes good coffee, but the UX was just hoooorrible and the machine died on me after few months, so I'm much more cautious with any type of automated coffee maker now.

[@DKMarik]

Amazing as usual! Any plans for a side by side with the xBloom? Would be also interesting to understand your perspective on how these technical marble can withstand the pressure of time.

Great video, as always! I really appreciate your designer's eye on these products. Nick seems like a very nice guy, and everyone in the industry seems to complement his abilities, but every Fellow product seems like this one. Technically capable, and I want to love it, but it's just kind of shitty build quality. Every fellow product I own (2 carter move mugs and an Ode 2) is a constant hope that it doesn't crap out, it feels like driving an old car that might break down at any time. My Ode makes amazing coffee, but it makes some really odd noises and rattles a lot, plus it's a pain to clean without scratching it or damaging the screws to do the recommended deep cleaning. It's already broken once and was covered by warranty, but I'm sure they wont cover it again.

I really love every fellow product I own (Carter Move, Ode 2, Stagg EKG) but especially for the Ode I feel like I'd rather have paid 10-20% more with a commensurate increase in build quality.

[@rwh1949homer]

Your review is spot on. I suffer from some of the same things that you covered. I pre purchased the Aiden to get the 3 bags of coffee. My most important feature was the single pour over using the app to set up the recipe. I loved the brewed coffee using the profiles provided with each bag of coffee but setting up a new recipe using the menu and button pushing is very frustrating. Fellow, Get the app out for our use. I received my Aiden in mid September. It’s now mid November. Follow has had enough time to develop the app if they properly designed the integration with the firmware.

Excellent review as usual of course, and some interesting insights into design analysis. I saw this in Copenhagen and it looked cool, but the little circular display is in fact curious. Glad that it does so well with single brewing. Have you by chance ever tried the Cup One by Technivorm? It doesn't have any parameters, so it can't really compare to this, but I wonder what your take on it would be. Cheers!

[@aramse]

Thanks Tom. I have the one cup and it’s decent but the extractions are lower and the presentation in the cup just not as sweet and evenly extracted for what I remember. Would be fun to try a side by side but I don’t have one with me right now.

People designing this kind of machine need to take into account the ritual aspect of what makes manual brewing a great experience. For example: just having a window glass allowing you to watch the water hitting the coffee and the brew happening would make it 100 times better.

[@CannedLaughter00]

Finally, someone acknowledging the round screen. As a designer I agree, specifically if they put a square slap of shiny plastic in front of you. At that point just give me the round screen straight up. 😡

[@gimig91]

Build quality doesn't bother me so much but there is soooo much plastic in contact with hot water here, I'm not really comfortable drinking coffee that certainly has a lot of microplastics in it every day. I would buy a more expensive machine (even double the current price) with the same technical abilities if there was no plastic in contact with hot water.

The lag could probably be improved(maybe not much without a lot of development work), and the skipped steps if they did the hardware right can be easily fixed with a FW update.

[@surrealchemist]

An app with an ability to edit your profiles and share them with a community cloud share system would be kind of ace. People could give recipes a thumbs up or down and the top rated ones could be sorted...

[@Thundermonk99]

Question for you: how different is the experience between using a coffee specific profile vs using the built in presets? As a lay person who wouldn’t know how to adjust the temperature and pulse time parameters, would they be entirely reliant on the coffee producer providing an Aiden profile? The sales pitch of importing profiles is appealing, but it feels unlikely that companies unaffiliated with Fellow are going to go out of their way to create product-specific profiles. Unless there is a user repository of shareable profiles (akin to EQ settings for headphones), it feels like a regular user would still need to manually dial in their brew.
