I properly won't have chance buying this level of grinder, but it always good to learn something new in such comfortable video format 👌

Stoked to see this video! I was visiting LM while you were filming, too bad I couldn't say hi. But, yes, they're some of the most awesome folks! But yes, I would love to see them continue to up their app/connectivity game. Even with the Mini/home line the IOT stuff isn't as strong as it could be, but the machines are still awesome.

Sounds like a fun trip/visit. I thought this announcement was a joke since I’ve seen this idea from LM for years now. It’s great to see LM put some nice effort into a grinder rather than stamping mazzers.

[@achimbarghorn714]

[@thomaswhitaker9350]

Great vid. Love me some fluffy grounds

[@mdabdullahalmamun2659]

Hi Chris Whats the accuracy level on swan grinder? It does always same like Mahlkonig does? Also between Mahlkonig E80 and Swan what’s your recommendation? Thanks

[@cheekster777]

Thank you Chris.

Strada X is in my wish List it looks amazing

[@marbacc]

Do you see any upcoming changes or differences on the brand since De'Longhi's acquisition of La Marzocco?

[@nbrikha]

Can't find anywhere that talks about the cost of the swan anywhere

[@Justphred]

It rains like snow.

Swan ❤

Still, $20,000 for Strada X1 is ridiculous. Most Uber-High-end home pro machines are around 3K-6K with the beauties like Slayer being around 7K-9K.
