UPGRADED Staresso SP200 Basic Espresso Machine Review. Is it worth it?

[@chefphiliptam416]

I have the new one, just like your video shows, mine also have water dripping out from the side. Once I take off the silicone wrap, there is a crack in the middle cause the water leaking😢😢😢

Can you make comparison between staresso and flair

[@khaledaalotibi]

What is the degree of grinding coffee this tool? And what kind are those that do not have high acidity?

[@JKTF476]

I have the older one, it was little cheaper. It uses both pods and ground coffee. Pods are the way to go if you are going to make several shots. ( saves needing running water and much less mess ) A kuerig EZ scoop like you use on refillable kuerig pods works great for filling and tamping loose coffee. Staresso should make an optional immersion brewer designed to fit the fill tank. If you want to use the sp200 like the mini version, you can easily leave the bottom part behind. I brew the coffee into the cup from the 16ounce Starbucks Stanly thermos I use to carry hot water. They should sell extra glasses as well. I did find a set of glass espresso cups from Amazon that will work. I got those as a back in case I break the original. If I upgrade it will be to the sp300

I have the old model and the Nespresso pods do not work consistently. Many times the pod is not punctured properly, either the holes on the wide foil side don't go thru or the bigger hole on the narrower side. Have you found it to work properly all the time? I really want the pods to work because I want to use it for travel. Once in a while a pod will puncture right and the coffee is great. But it take a lot of tries. I'm trying to figure out what may be wrong with it but I don't see anyone else reporting problems.

The fourth version looks really good. ​@@charlespatt

Hi! Can you use the new baskets on the old unit?

[@tfeli27]

I know this is an old video, but i cant find the answer anywhere. Is the clear cup glass or plastic? Thanks!

[@exploration_coffee]

@@tfeli27 hey! It’s glass

[@axeldlt]

I am looking for a simple espresso machine, where the process of making an espresso the water never comes in contact with a piece of plastic or aluminum. Do you have any model that complies with that?

[@ChrisS3617]

The only one I can think of that isn't a professional lever machine like an all stainless or copper/brass La Pavoni (and those are like 1000 USD on the low end.) is a Flair PRO but it has a pressure gauge that looks to use some plastics. Though the contact would be very minimal. The Flair body is made up of cast aluminum but all the brewing parts are stainless steel. But if you want absolutely zero plastic or aluminum I would recommend a V60 pour over setup. you can get very nice glass and ceramic V60 brewers and brew into a similar material container. Otherwise your looking at a cafe or professional grade machine as far as I am aware.

9barista is the one that fit, the other one is modified mokapot

[@DeserttoGarden]

How many grams of grounds can the new model hold? Enough for a triple shot ?

[@serayuelastic5414]

only 8 - 9 grams

[@laluna5192]

using the item number would help, new and old doesnt help

[@utomow]

Hi @explorationcoffee I have the upgraded version of staresso sp 200 bought last november. I realized that the pump has a crooked tip. I see yours has it too in this video but no close up shot to confirm it. The pump tip of SP 200 mini from your other video looks straight. Is this a possible defective product?

[@ReligionAndMaterialismDebunked]

Shalom.
