I am super passionate about coffee and educating people on all aspects of this amazing drink. I love bringing the stories back from the other side of the world about how they grow and process the coffee differently in each farm, in each region, in each country. I also love helping baristas around the world make better coffee for themselves, whether they're at home, professional, competitors and or even just venturing out into the wide world of coffee.

I think the Giotto Cronometro V is not “five”, it’s ‘V’ for VIBRATION pump. Kind of like the Giotto Evoluzione R is ROTARY pump.

It's a very well made video, that will put a ground base for a new prosumer and what to expect for certain price range. It's crazy how at this budget, you have so many very well made machines. Picking up what it's best at this price, it's so difficult from rocket to lelit to the decent machine. A real "best of" on that range it's hard to define, because every users have different needs. And that decent machine it's something amazing on paper for the bucks.

Love it! Thanks Ryd 🎉

Great video!

Thanks Ryd. Would love to see an in depth review of the Ascaso Steel Duo PID latest upgraded steam model at approx $2600 AUD. Cheers.

60 years and E61 heat exchangers are still the standard... There's something wrong with being able to say that.. Recently took a look at 2 group machine and only 5 of 36 were dual or multi boiler and 6 had PID control, There were more with pre-infusion but it was mostly line and not electronic. I hope a lot of these features become standard in the next 60 years to help raise the baseline and lower cost.

Thank you, it was really helpful ...

Sanremo Cube is also sold as R version (with a rotary pump)

@Coffee Coach | Ryd Jeavons - I have a $3000-4000 usd budget for a grinder and espresso machine. In regards to the Decent DE1PRO, wouldnt the reliability of getting a consistent shot a huge value for a newbie and learning to "experiment" whenever I could be a huge value to getting this machine? I do understand the learning curve is steep but to have myself just "teach my wife" to push a selection for her own espressos would be valuable too.

For home user, Linea Micra shall be in top tier here

[@magnusnordstrom3927]

Holy puck, that Cube is good lookin'!

[@hosseinshooli5452]

Tnx a lot for your great video!!

[@CashWill_Trading]

Another cracking video Ryd. I’m definitely not in this market but I can always dream. The all ground grinder though is something I’m keen on

[@fuadahmed4913]

Another great video Ryd. What about Sanremo YOU or LaMarzocco Strada compared to DE Pro 1

[@slepianok]

San Remo Cube looks wonderful. I was thinking about buying it, but interesting fact: it is impossible to tune water pressure. And as i remember, they are set to 12 bars from manufacturer. For the machine of that high cost, it is not cool at all

[@beardenbob6567]

Very informative and good range of choices reviewed! The Decent is cool, but is anyone else bothered by that janky USB cable jerry-rigged to the bolt-on tablet? Software/control is very impressive, but it seems like it could stand a more refined industrial design at that price point.

Having watched this and Ryd’s 1-3k vid, I’m still no further on in my search to upgrade from Sage/Breville Oracle. I like strong, yet smooth Americano w/thick crema as my 5-cup daily staple. But, I’m partial to a decent flat white too and catering to any guest requirement. My Oracle was great in 2015 but I’ve come to understand that the grinder is pure rubbish and the coffee out of it is 6.5/10. I’m happy to move to an external grinder… but, coming from a feature-packed Oracle… I want the PID, the pre-infusion, the dual boiler for instant milk steam and no cooling/heating waits. In 2023, I accept that super-automatics and bean-to-cup just don’t deliver the best of coffee but we can use screens and displays to better control the machine. I’m not into using a screwdriver to attempt to adjust an over-pressure valve, for example.

[@fsi2210]

Only one of 3 machines I would invest in today. Rocket R9 One, Slayer SG or Decent DE1.

[@sAmiZZle82]

Surprised you didn't mention the Lelite MaraX or Bianca as great value prosumer options

[@zehaoyu9401]

Would you recommend Linea micra over any of the ones in your video?
