iDrinkCoffee.com Review - La Spaziale Mini Vivaldi Espresso Machine

[@rmallea1]

The Americano! Beautiful!

[@ABHORRANCE831]

Thank you. This is such a thorough and easy to follow setup guide for our new machine!

[@danjv]

Thanks for this thorough demonstration of this fantastic machine.

[@cassh.1935]

Can you please make a video showing how to clean this machine. I'm having trouble figuring it out and my coffee isn't tasting the best anymore.

[@qualin1974]

I wish they used some other font other than Comic Sans on the buttons. It doesn't really do anything to make the machine look more professional.

[@iDrinkCoffeeCanada]

Hahaha, I agree with that.

[@marcustiplea9297]

I second that. I couldn't believe my eyes.

[@pablo-zn1mg]

LMAO I didn't notice before... now I can't unsee it ahahah. might as well put a Doge meme sticker next to it

[@feralferret]

Along with the large Brush Script machine logo on the front of the drip-tray, all the machine needs now is some pixelated neon-coloured imagery and a few scrolling tags.

[@pulpmysteryfan]

Regarding cup clearance: The double spout on my portafilter unscrews. Since I always drink double shot drinks, it served no purpose, so I removed it. It also means there's better cup clearance.

Hi where can I get a timer to switch it on from?

[@Will-bp2yc]

You are a pro! Nice review. Nice machine! This is my pick for expresso, lattes, serving my friends. Always makes prefect drinks, fast!

[@iDrinkCoffeeCanada]

Thank you for your kind words. The Vivaldi is tried and true.

[@willymiti9484]

Question is, where can you get a bottomless portafilter for a 53 machine?

[@Porsche993-j6k]

Clive coffee has them

[@herbertchapmanafc1246]

does the machine have to be plumbed in

[@iDrinkCoffeeCanada]

No, the Mini Vivaldi cannot be plumbed in. You have to choose between the Vivaldi which has a rotary pump and must be plumbed in or the Mini Vivaldi which has a vibration pump and water tank and cannot be plumbed in.

[@youssefzrii7207]

Hi, what is the pressure on this machine, and can we adjust it to 9bars for example? Thanks

[@iDrinkCoffeeCanada]

Hi, yes the over pressure valve can be adjusted to 9 bars.

[@youssefzrii7207]

@@iDrinkCoffeeCanada thank you for the quick answer.

[@timstanlake3321]

Do you have a link to this grinder. It's very appealing to me especially the output into the portafilter. Thanks

[@iDrinkCoffeeCanada]

That is a Fiorenzato f64 Evo. You can find it here: idrinkcoffee.com/products/fiorenzato-f64-evo-electronic-coffee-grinder-3-colours

[@Yardie_in_Tampa]

How long did it take for the boiler to recover when making the americano?

[@iDrinkCoffeeCanada]

It depends on how much water you take out but I would estimate if you draw about 5oz of water the machine should recover in under a minute

[@stonex55]

i cant seem to find a tamper that has a nice clean seal with the la spaziale protafilter, what size do you use ? can it handle 54mm?

[@iDrinkCoffeeCanada]

La Spaziale uses a 53mm tamper.

[@stonex55]

@@iDrinkCoffeeCanada I know it uses a 53 but can a 54 fit, my 53mm tamper has quite a gap and I was thinking of buying a 53.5mm custom

[@iDrinkCoffeeCanada]

@@stonex55 the best thing to do is measure your basket with a caliper. I can measure a stock basket of you like and let you know what I get.

[@purshottamkumar8285]

can we adjust the shot time in this machine?

[@iDrinkCoffeeCanada]

The programming is volumetric which is more accurate than programming using time

[@JackOusley]

THIS is the way!! 😊

[@Vanemmanuelava]

Is this dual boiler espresso machine?

[@santafejboy2]

@@amiddled lol. Exactly

[@richardbutler9466]

So why are you reviewing an espresso machine that you don’t even sell? What’s the point?

[@iDrinkCoffeeCanada]

Hi, this video was posted more than 3 years ago. At that time we did carry La Spaziale.

[@richardbutler9466]

@@iDrinkCoffeeCanada Ah, thanks for the explanation.

[@playnicegames]

@@iDrinkCoffeeCanada why don’t you sell them anymore?

[@iDrinkCoffeeCanada]

@@playnicegames While personally I am a fan of La Spaziale unfortunately the sales were quite low for us and we decided to remove it from our offerings.
