Budget Espresso Banger: Relaunched Flair Neo Flex, an Exciting Upgrade

[@snyadmin]

Pretty hard to get hold of in Europe until they match the demand - if anyone grabs the older neoflex here’s a hack I use daily: stick it on bathroom scales. Each 2kg is about 1 bar of pressure (so 18kg of pressure for 9 bar). Works great, makes superb shots.

[@silasklug6863]

School of Rock! Love my flair classic. Don't really see a reason to upgrade from it and have well over 1000 shots on it, but cool they keep experimenting

[@philindeblanc]

True, and experiment is the key word in this plastic model.

[@trobinso92]

Just bought this neo flex about a month ago as my first manual espresso maker so just some more tips here Lance is right with the red flow restrictor, it's supposed to be "beginner friendly" but I found it made it even harder to pull a good tasting shot. Throws your pressure all over the place and hard to find your best grind setting. So I only use the black one like Lance shows and it's great For the preheat, the kit comes with a little silicone cap for the chamber which is great I'll just pour some boiling hot water in the chamber and let it sit while I grind/tamp and its a good workflow. I haven't had any creaks in the plastic now that I've pulled probably 50+ shots I think that's a new plastic thing. I'd recommend getting a scale that has an automatic timer on it so you can track your extraction time as you pull, flair has one for ~50 USD that fits in the pocket of the base. Flair and Lance mention that max puck is about 12 or 13g but I usually pull 15g every time just fine. With 14g I have just enough room for a little brown sugar on top *mwah All in all love this thing and at a great price Lance great vid as always. would love to see a video on upgrades you'd recommend for manual set ups like this, pressure transmitters, temperature gauges, etc

[@RaafiFadillah-lq8co]

i bought this neo flex v2 2 days ago, first try it worked, i used the red one with 18g coffee. But the next try with the same grams its stuck, i cant press it, the coffee likes go up to the chamber slowly after i pour the hot water, and even worse the third, and fourth it still failed, its just stuck and cant be pressed. can you help me pls 😢

[@flug_rost]

Funnily enough, I think this video pushed me over the edge to buy a Cafelat Robot and cancel my Meticulous preorder. Even if I decide to pick up the Meticulous in retail in a few years, the Cafelat will be a timeless piece of quality gear that I can use and admire a lifetime. Thanks as always for the thoughtful content Lance!

[@AnEasyGuy22]

Why is that?

[@EarsoftheWolf]

The Robot truly is a great espresso machine, I use it every day and it's an absolute pleasure to own.

[@NeverMind353]

@@EarsoftheWolf second that. Light roasts need a while to figure out but are possible. And medium-dark ones are delightful

[@Shreybz]

Great idea. Have had mine a year or so and it’s been an absolute delight. More and more convinced that there isn’t a better value out there than the robot. It rivals quality with any machine.

[@gpapa31]

Third that. Best decision. The Robot is the king of “budget levers”. It’s built like a tank, its workflow is second to none, it is ridiculously cheap to maintain and the results you get (dark-med roast) can easily rival any pro machine out there that costs thousands of dollars.

[@rawsteaks8972]

I have a Flair and a Nanofoamer pro, this combo of a couple hundred bucks, is amazing. The savings on coffee, the process became something I loved in my daily routines

[@bertsperling7007]

Love my Flair Pro 2! I could afford a "serious" espresso machine, but I really enjoy being closer to the whole process and still getting great results. I was meeting up with a friend at one of Portland's excellent third-wave coffee shops, and brought the Flair along to show him. One of the baristas asked about the it, so I pulled a shot right there on the counter. He was like, "Whoa, damn. That's really good. I'm going to enjoy this." Sorta like steppin up to the mic at a blues club and getting respect. 😄 A good feeling.

[@marcozg77]

Hi fellow FP2 user! I love mine too! I did and still do own pump machines for many years. But for like 10 months I got my FP2, I've never touched my pump machine since then... crafting your very own espresso with a manual lever is just too addictive...

[@nathanmccord706]

The School of Rock references are always my favorite! I love my flair neo flex and am always impressed by the quality of the shot for being so cheap!

[@Phobosandpanic]

Great video Lance, always good to see someonce championing the budget route to get into a hobby. For anyone watching this who is interested in getting into espresso but doesn't have a machine - buy one of these! I bought a flair signature and I've learned so much about how to make good espresso. The main thing I learned is I love all the prep work, the process of dialling in and the feedback you get from a lever machine, but equally i could have also learnt that actually I really can't be arsed with all that when making espresso. But at least that way I'd have only spent circa £150-200 (including grinder) to learn that lesson, and not potentially £1000+ if I'd have gone straight to a full machine. Though i would say if that cheap plastic creaking annoys you, I'd recommend getting a second hand flair signature instead as they're a metal frame and you can upgrade the brew chamber to the pro size if you want bigger shots at a later date

[@jstrandquist]

I've been using an OG Neo (with the black portafilter and pressure gauge) as my daily driver since 2020. It's been totally worth the $120 + upgrades, especially once I finally changed from a blade grinder to a burr grinder. As an affordable, very low-maintenance way to make good straight espresso, it's hard to beat. It suffers in the area of speed, since without multiple portafilters, brew chambers, and a large kettle, it's hard to pull multiple shots in quick succession, as you have to disassemble and clean the thing every darn time. Likewise, you're out of luck on milk drinks without external tools. That said, if you just want to make a plain shot for yourself, it can absolutely do the job with aplomb, even for light-roast specialty coffees (my personal favorite). I like to plug the brew chamber with the piston, invert it on the stand, and fill it with boiling water twice to preheat, but after watching Lance's video I might try the kettle preheat method to save fuss. Lastly, I've found that using a WDT tool makes a big difference to consistency of flow, all but eliminating the occasional clogs and choked shots that could occur otherwise.

[@anonylesss]

i got my first Flair Signature (classic + pressure gauge) after watching your original Neo video. loved it so much, upgraded the brew head to Pro2 and then i just had to get the 58 . loving (almost) anything Flair product !

[@sebastianschar142]

Also have the Flair Signature now for years. Combined with a good hand grinder, it gives the full manual espresso experience. And the espresso it produces is comparable to that of 2k+ machines and very expensive motorized grinders. Only thing you need to worry about is proper preheating.

[@nathanhersey8590]

I have a similar path as you. I got the classic and went straight to the 58. I love flair so much. I am considering upgrading to the Pro 2 for my classic and bringing it to my office.

[@anonylesss]

@@nathanhersey8590 very cool! just consider heating up the Pro2 brew head can be a pain. it used to take me about 15 minutes, during which it was sitting above the kettle - and the temp. sticker (that Flair sells on their website) on the outside, only got to about 80c .i would stick with the Classic for the office:) *get a presssure gauge though

[@bruce-bales]

Honestly, I consistently got better coffee from my Neo Flex than I do on my 58. I still prefer the 58 because the propriety Flair workflow is significantly more annoying than a more standard portafilter workflow, but the deeper basket on the Neo makes such a consistently delicious shot. I'd absolutely love to see either an official step-down portafilter for the 58, or a similar product to the 58 but with the same basket dimensions as the Neo.

[@tomspotley5733]

[@ASCLorenzoo]

I have the classic model that I've bought 2 years ago, still works like a charm to this day. Such a phenomenal espresso machine for its price, the only thing I hate about this new model is that plastic design and the cranky noise while brewing the shot. As always thanks for the review, keep up the great work.

[@MaltePersike]

The creaking speaks doom for longevity.

[@lostmymag]

It really doesn't, been pulling mine with creaks daily for a year now and it is still fine. The creaks are from when you don't pull down straight and the plastic on the joint rubs against one another.

[@Vaan4756346]

@@lostmymag perhaps some vaseline or something?

[@brandyballoon]

I'm guessing a lot of the creaking in the video was due to the misalignment and pressure points created by using the pressure gauge that doesn't fit. The point where it was touching the lever could have a few hundred pounds of force on it. It's pushing both the lever and the piston sideways in opposite directions.

[@1130Runs]

​@Vaan4756346 vaseline eventually wears away at plastic. This could create loose joints in future.

I got mine about 2 weeks ago. I had the original Flex & sent it back because of the stupid graduation discs & the fact that it always felt like it was once creak away from snapping. To me this frame feels more solid & the base feels more stable. On the old Flex the base wobbled around. The new one doesn't. Using it with the K4 grinder and loving it. Getting very good shots from it & love the whole process.

[@skhy77]

Thank you for going over plastics and hot water contact.

I have the 2024 relaunch. It's a amazing unit. One downside I found it the bottom rim of the new plunger tends to crack. Sadly there's no spare parts yet. So it's either go back to no gauge (no option for me) or buy the metal gauge upgrade wich is half of the machine. I love the shots so probably will buy a pro2 when the plunger really breaks.

The two products are "night and day". Get the Flair, it might work for you. You will probably dream of the Lelit and buy it, too. That way, you will have a great portable option and something cool to look at sitting beside your Lelit. Keep in mind that a Lelit retains significant value over the years, especially if well-maintained. What are you doing for a grinder? I use a Kingrinder 6 to feed my Gaggia Classic Pro but will probably upgrade to a DF-54 or something along those lines. BTW: my first machine was a $30 DeLonghi Stilosa, found it barely used on Facebook. It actually made some fairly awesome (small) shots and the steam wand works better than the Gaggia.

Great video Lance! Have you tried the 1zpresso Q Air? It has a plastic build and heptagonal burrs like the Q2 but with small changes (Rouge Wave did a video showing them). Do you find it has the same "C40 like" results as the Q2? Would you say it can also do espresso? I got it on sale as an upgrade for my Timemore Slim Plus for filter, but I can't say I've noticed a huge jump in clarity and sweetness for now. Maybe it's cause I slow fed with the Slim and I've been grinding vertically with the Q Air.

[@addisonfrancisco9007]

The School of Rock reference was a great coincidence because I was listening to the Jack Black ep of Armchair Expert literally before watching this video.

[@cameronbatko]

The only issue I had with mine is that the metal chamber may have tolerance issues. My piston would let water pass by it. They sent new red orings and it works great now. I had to swap the black ones on the piston for red. I also just use the preheat cap and pour the hot water in it to preheat. I also wish their metal tamper had a better fit but for $25 can’t really complain. Easy espresso in a hotel.

[@corwinblack4072]

If one drinks only dark to medium roast, it doesnt really need much than hot water preheat. I had Flair pretty much since they started making them, and even that original NEO brew chamber (which back then was like 2nd redesign of original one) was quite fine with just water preheat. True, I used mostly darker coffee back then. Today, anything with Pro or Pro2 brew chamber is a lot of preheating and its still not perfect, cause that thing itself weights fairly absurd 500g, basket is another 100g. So you get pretty much 600g of stainless steel to preheat. I would argue that PRO/2 brew chambers are not actually upgrade, but downgrade. Its basically very sturdy big heatsink.

[@cameronbatko]

@@corwinblack4072 yea I tend to drink light to medium roasts and letting hot water sit in the chamber for a minute gets the cylinder quite hot. And makes a better shot.

I have a La Pavoni Europiccola, and although I love the coffee it makes, it is quite demanding. It takes some time to heat, it's not so easy to clean or replace parts when needed,... and I'm thinking about getting a Flair. So I'm wondering, would it be a downgrade taste wise, or not really?

I don't know if I missed this, but: you mentioned that preheating on the kettle is sufficient for medium-dark roasts, and no preheating is acceptable for dark roasts. What do you suggest for light roasts? Contact with boiling water? Or do you not recommend this machine for light roasts? In a similar vein - if the signature/pro editions have more thermal mass and less insulation from a smaller rubber band around it, would you say any problems with light roasts are exacerbated on those models?

These days, the only justifications I get from people still holding onto their static 9-bar semi-autos is that they want automation but they can't afford the top-end machines worth thousands of dollars. Personally, I don't ever want to go back to that. Not only is a manual lever more accommodating with a wider range of grind sizes because of the adjustable pressure, the tactile feedback I get on the quality of puck prep and overall state/age of the coffee beans is an advantage that I'll never want to be without ever again.
