I really, REALLY needed this video. I am in the regret stage and will keep pushing through and learning! Thank you!

@nessevans5224 5 месяцев назад

Keep learning but if all else fails, just use a pressurised basket! It's helps if you want to "cheat" occasionally

@CrissCrux Месяц назад

I purchased my machine over 3 months ago. I was in the same place as you just go out to cafes and talk to baristas and ask for tips.

@ujona Год назад

I am so glad that I found this review since my wife got one a few days ago. Thank you for your tips since I too am very practical and feel that there is no need to buy unnecessary add-ons. My wife made me the task master on this endeavor and she is very finicky with her expresso and coffee. No more Starbucks ever and well noted on their beans. Please support your local coffee roasters since they can really use your business with them. God bless!

@mlotis 6 месяцев назад

I only grind for about 9-10 seconds, tamp it and then manually grind by pushing in and holding for another 2-3 seconds. Then you don’t need to dump coffee grinds all over

@zanederweesh4 Год назад

This was very helpful, you don't even know! As you mentioned, there are very specific fine tuning that you need to figure out or else you won't create good consistent espresso shots. I have always felt that I purchased a machine that was too fancy and complicated that I honestly gave up on it. It was also so embarrassing for my friends and family to come over excited to try my machine and not feeling confident in myself/the machine to create good/consistent coffee. You have restored my confidence, I want to try the settings and beans you recommended. You are the second person to recommend the La Colombe coffee beans, I am excited to try the Nizza blend (bc the winter toast link you provided is invalid now). Just like you I have been buying Starbucks beans because I used to work there and figured thats the only beans that work. However, there beans honestly aren't the best. I have now realized that I have been wrong all along Lol. But yea thank you so much!! (I'm going to also steal your beans container, it's so cute)

@LaurenColvin Год назад

I’m so glad this was helpful!! Let me know how you like the la colombe beans 🤍🤍

@andwerth Год назад

Nice video! I found a stainless steel dosing cup from Crema Coffee Products that fits below the grinder so I collect all the grounds and then I put the portafilter over it and turn upside down. After a few knocks on a rubber mat all the grounds settle in so it’s easier to press. Main reason was just not to waste any and as you said, you need all of it ! Thanks for this review !

@shannonlopez982 Год назад

Thank you so very much! I went from a Keurig 😂 to an Nespresso 😅.. I was considering a DeLonghi, or a Phillips automatic espresso machine, but after talking to a friend who is a barista and watching your video I am now considering this machine. I am super excited, hoping for it to be a Christmas/birthday present. I have a favorite coffee shop that I love to go to , and I would love to duplicate that at home. 🙏🏼 I am sure with all of your tips and tricks and my friends help I will be able to enjoy the same cup at home. Thank you so much for your time and attention to detail in your video. I can’t wait to grow up and be a big coffee barista in my own home. 🥰🤩

Ich own this machine for 4 1/2 years now, pull 4 to 5 espresso shots daily and let it spill about 2-3 liters of hot water for tea each day, don't have a filter installed as I use only filtered water and never had the slightest problem with it.

Good Day Lauren just found your video and really love the helpful starting tips> Have just ordered the same machine and LeColombe Nizza Beans. Can you tell me the final grind setting you ended up with for your daily use? Hopefully that will shorten my trail and error learning period. Thanks

@LaurenColvin 10 месяцев назад

Hi! I use size 11 grind size! The beans usually last me about two weeks of daily use. As they get less fresh i change the grind size down a notch for a finer grind and a slower pour. I notice that as the beans get less fresh sometimes the shot pours too quickly! I probably modify grind size after a week or 10 days! But it’s all based on what I see when I watch the shot pour! Hope that helps but, please let me know if you have any other questions!

@techware1840 Год назад

Shame u didn’t wait until the Barista Touch Impress came out - it calculates dosing, tamping and extraction time for u - would of saved u a lot of trial and error - but of course how would u know the next model up from yours would have those features - but I have it and it pulls the perfect shot consistently - the only time it will have to recalibrate the settings is when I change beans - it’s amazing 🤩

@mhm2037 Год назад

Me and my mom bought my dad this exact machine for Christmas this year and at first it seemed to be making good pulls but after a little bit the volume of the shot was smaller and smaller and I could tell it wasn’t right. I was playing around with it and used the settings you recommended here and it’s making absolutely no quantity of espresso, just some drips at the end of the pull. I’m quite frustrated but am very determined to figure it out! Any advice? Edit: further wanted to add that i reset the machine and it’s settings made a “decent” shot meaning there was some volume plus crema but it was still quite small and didnt taste good/right. making me think it might have to do with either the water or the beans themselves (which are fresh), i dont know what to do :(

@macwolf4160 Год назад

The temperature on the ideal setting is perfect @ 203 degrees farenheit or 95 degrees celcius at the coffee puck when brewing. Just preheat your brew group and portafilter with the single dose double wall basket to reach 203 degrees and then switch basket to single wall double dose fill with grind and you should be fine.

@NpgSymboL Год назад

Maybe if you are in a cold climate area the pipes of the machine are cold and make the hot liquids running through colder? Do you use milk? If so Increase your milk temp. If not try run brew without coffee for a few seconds beforehand into an empty cup to get some hot water running through your machine to heat the pipes up. I’m not too sure but just trying to help with ideas

I thought I was the only one having this problem. I tried using the exact same grind size and time setting that Lauren is using and while hers over fills the portafilter, mine only fills it half way. I went out and purchased a scale to weigh out 18 grams.

Maybe you have a different model? Or is it the same? I have the same model and mine slightly overfills the double shot portafilter and right now it’s on grind size 10 for 17 seconds

Purchased one of these back in December. Awful experience. Faulty grinder within a couple of days. Customer service from Sage has been shocking. Lodged a support ticket with Sage and its taken them 34 days to reply. Support has now gone quiet again. Support phone lines have ques of 60+ minutes and 2 months on I still have a faulty machine. Quality of the espresso machine is dreadful and so is Sage's customer support!

The need for cleaning and to find the beans you like are a con of this machine?

@ramikeisari212 Год назад

Great video and thank you. Not sure it is worth the $2000+ cost. I do like the simple Nespresso classic with some hot milk (skip the froth if needed)

@LaurenColvin Год назад

It’s not $2,000, the machine I have is $1,000. I used to drink nespresso and loved it but nothing truly tastes better than fresh ground espresso with a great machine!

It’s $895 right now on sale, regular price is $1100. The $2000 one is the Oracle not the Touch.

Nespresso pods with hot milk un texturised ? Don’t bother with a new machine if you’ve found that’s what you like 😊

Shit machine Own two and both had same faith that requires a send back to factory....

What machine did you own? I have the black version of this and it’s amazing

@@NpgSymboL it was the barrista touch. Had one for home, one for business. Same fault as on here. It's a common fault apparently

@@NpgSymboL it is really good. But not good when it doesn't work haha

@@willliam1343what’s the fault?? Just curious. Mine took a while to set up and dial in but once I got through that it consistently makes coffee as good as or better than most coffee shops. I’ve had it for like 3 years

@johnnykidmann1523 we had both for two years before the fault occurred. I can't remember the number sorry of the fault sorry. It was about 6 months ago now

@AASA76 7 месяцев назад

so i followed your setting exactly and when i ground the coffee it barely filled it half way? also my coffee did not come out golden like yours. It came out dark and watery and not a thick stream. What did I do wrong?

@LaurenColvin 7 месяцев назад

I would try uping the grind size! Make sure you have enough grinds in the portofilter as well

@AASA76 7 месяцев назад

ok what size do you reccomend? i did the size that you recommended in the video, not sure how we have same machine and same setting with two outcomes, your crema is so nice, mine was nothing like it@@LaurenColvin

@LaurenColvin 7 месяцев назад

Could be the style of beans you are using, I would toggle with the settings and do trial and error. Are your beans fresh? Do you have enough ground beans in the portofilter before packing, is it coming out too slow? All things to consider
