IS THIS THE FUTURE OF BREWING COFFEE AT HOME?: A Look at the Gevi 2in1 

Hi Lance so mainly based on your reviews I ordered a Gevi. Its been very substantially revised and termed the 4in1. I made my first brew yesterday but used the no bypass brewer you recommended in another video and wow. Just wow. It was far and away the best pour over I've ever had.. thanks so much @Lance

Being a new viewer. I appreciate the ending with how you clarified your disclosure and morality of reviews. I am starting to appreciate you and your heart for the coffee world. You have now won me over and I am a fan. Good job

Hey Lance, you got me into this mad mad world of espresso making. Love your videos 😘

would love to see you do a "brewing for two" video with your preferred recipe. I love that this product has the recipe saving option. If they make some of the changes you mentioned I really might need to buy this. nice video

I also own this Gevi machine and love it. I use it for pour over and also the grinder for espresso. The only thing I miss is a bellows on top of the hopper that would make it easyer to get less retention.

thanks for pulling that 4th GCP shot for me in the IG live tonight!! Love the dimmer knob mod!

Gevi actually did implement all your suggestions you made. Variable nozzle speeds and flow rates, temp now up to 99C, scale measures to 0.1g and much faster, saving profiles easier with a new button. Glad they had time and inclination to do them as now it is a great machine

Most amazing feature for my family is something that you also mentioned…my wife has no interest in geeking out on coffee (she tried to make pour over the other day but accidentally used an espresso grind setting) and a programmed recipe for her to follow would be perfect.

Amazing video. Very informative. Thanks for the attention to detail

They are on the right track, as far as I am concerned. Who wouldn't want complete control over all parameters that lead to a consistent cup of coffee?!

Awesome! i would luv one of these in my kitchen! love your videos sir..!!!

I really am impressed! Even though the scale is a bit sub par in refresh rate and not a tenth of a gram accurate (which, generally would each be deal breakers on a coffee scale) the fact that you were able to calibrate with your Acaia and app indicates (at least to my satisfaction) that the machine is more accurate than the scale itself, which is really cool! So, in a very real sense, this machine is also a bean counter!

nice video lance. easy to see that youve had a lot of fun using this over the past few weeks!

Great review, Lance

I’m a 1-2 cup guy myself. I’ll have to keep an eye out for the upgraded model. I like coffee from my Hario. I don’t understand why these Pour-over Brewers that are being made don’t utilize the hario type style cone. I think the ridges & the way water flows thru it is what makes the coffee stand out. Just my opinion. Thanks for the reviews.

Lance I’d love to see you do a moccamaster dailing in tips and tricks. I got one for my wife and I want to figure out how to get the most out of it. I typically make espresso and find the moccamaster a bit of a mystery

Very nice video sir!

After this video I purchased the device I seriously love it . The settings are amazing , the grinder , the water flow , the speed the fact that I can store James Hoffmann V60 recipe and then my wife can use it With 3 big exceptions I really wish it had 1 an adapter so I can put my 58 porterfilter of my Gaggia Classic (maybe someone can make a 3D printed one?) because I hate to hover my hand under it when I am grinding for espresso 2) I can’t Belive it doesn’t have a timer .. I had to buy a sage precision brewer to start the first batch of coffee of the day 3) call me crazy but I love to have a heat plate to keep the coffee for the first 2 hours hot. I know it fucks up the tast if you leave it to long but I wish it had one like standard coffee makes do . My cheap BobHome v60 pour over machine has one ☝️ but it brews pretty badly

Thank you Lance. Do you know, from the kettle to the spouts is the water touching any plastic?

Hi Lance. Have you seen the production models? Curious if they made any adjustments/ improvements based on your recommendations.

Really great and fun video, very informative, pretty cool brewer, Wonderful versatility in such a compact little package. Nicely done thank you

thats a nice . . . . . . laundry machine on the background there 👌

You nailed it Lance! The biggest problem with making various styles of coffee is the grinder. It’s just not as easy as moving the setting from espresso to pourover and back. Going back to your espresso setting never seems to be the precise setting again, requiring adjustment. I have a Decent Espresso machine and I can do do pourovers with their pourover portafilter, which is arguably more precise than this machine. The missing item in my current setup is a grinder with a pourover setting that works (so I can leave my grinder at its espresso setting). Pourover and French press don’t require the same precision in grind setting as espresso. My grinder is set for my favorite beans for use with my Decent and rarely gets moved. We use a cheap grinder for pourovers and French press, so I’d rather use this money for a better grinder. Then again, one could look at this machine as a grinder with a pourover feature, which sounds great. So, the big question is - how good is this grinder compared to, for example, a Niche or the new Eureka? I wonder if it is good enough for Gevi to offer the grinder only and remove the wet side of this machine? $300? $250?

Looks super cool, even though I love doing manual pour overs enough that I wouldn't buy something like this. I was expecting it to be much more expensive too, especially considering it has a good grinder built in. (I'd probably be more interested in this machine if it didn't have a grinder built in, to be honest, though.)

500$ and the casing is what it seems to be fragile painted plastic. It could have a calculator/sensor that's gonna change the revolution speed so you always have like a full revolution or 2 or 3 no matter what the quantity of water you choose.

IIt ISS shame that Gevi didn’t listen to your thoughtful suggestions and other whom reviewed this wonderful concept of automated brewing system. I was enamored by its possibilities and functions. It had great possibilities if the Gevi company would have listened to your expert analysis. But, at this time in January 2022, it hasn’t provided updates in their Indigo-go campaign or their website that they would make or provide these software updates.. I really wanted to purchase this brewer/coffee grinder,, But, I won’t be doing it now…Gevi has placed a “Out of stock” on their order placement ares… I must assume that this Gevi machine won’t be offered again soon or if at all…possibly

Love this machine!! So easy for me to make my coffee with in the morning!

Awesome review, thanks! Some feedback: your audio recording setup could use some tweaking as now you are clipping the mic a bit making it somewhat taxing to listen for me at least.

Hey Lance, now that you've had some more time with the Gevi, how do you find the grinder? How would it compare to something like Lagom Mini? Just the grinding capabilities that is. Would be great to hear your thoughts. Great in-depth video as always. Cheers!

Love the channel! Are you still planning to make a part 2 of the Gaggia Classic video?

Great video, Lance! I prefer your videos over Hoffman's. I hope that is encouraging. Keep it up!

Not sure if you are still using the Gevi 4 in 1 but I've been using mine for about a year and I'm having an issue with the brew stopping and giving me a low water error even though its still full. I mescal it often and this seems to help but still occurs intermittently. I also have issues when trying to saturate my filter using empty water with rotation where it stops after only a few seconds. Any suggestions you can provide would be appreciated. When its working its great....but I'm concerned as the issues seem to be happening more frequently..

Great review! Thx. What happened with Michael’s review you’re mentioning?

Incredible machine, Lance!

Hello there, you do 1:1 barista classes? Also I’m very new to coffee business and I’m shopping for my machines, it’s a small cart coffee, you can recommend a espresso machine? I’m debating between La Marzocco linea mini or GS3

Love a cool gadget 😜

Looks great regardless of the brand.

Sorry to go off topic from this video Lance, but you mentioned you may show a tutorial on your BDB video in which you'll show a tutorial on how to achieve the Slayer modification to the BDB. I was thinking very intently on getting another e61 unit, but also on the fence to get the BDB for a different location. Do you think you can make that tutorial video? I've seen another one online, but the angle in which the video was filmed was hard to make out where you make the connections. Much appreciated for your time.

Hi Lance, do you have any sample recipes for the Gevi? What settings did you use for the tricolate with it?

Nice

Have you tried it with the Espro Bloom and if so how were the results?

Nice review. I think there's a real lack of automated 1-2 cup products so hopefully that kickstarts the market. Imagine there's a market for a cheaper grinder-less version. Curious that they went for the spouts instead of a showerhead. Looks pretty sweet, can't really justify taking up that much space in a shared kitchen but otherwise I'd be interested

what happened to the big tabletop hand grinder that you were going to review? Is that still a thing that's going to happen?

Interested to hear you drink decaf at night. Can you please do a video on decaf - the different types and how to find quality options.

Is the water container pressurized? If it's trying to hit 205F before dispensing the water, what happens at altitude where the boiling point is below 205F?

Interesting machine, thanks for the review. For some reason I found it incredibly distracting that the bottom of the machine was cut off in the wide (and some of close up) shots.

I wonder what is your favourite Onyx coffee. And which one is good for espresso?

Great review. Seams like the perfect brewing toy for people looking for a grinder for all the methods. Just that value is pretty amazing, and you can dial in pour over brews?! Not on the market, but if I was, this would be a Solid.

Please do a full video of your Tricolate brewing recipe. It is a totally different beast from all other percolation devices

Hej Lance ! Nice video again. How would you compare this with the decent espresso pour over? Pros cons?

Nice vidéo 🥰🥳

So, we finally got a coffeemaker for all you Thermomix-enthusiasts out there! ;-)

Would you agree the touchscreen could use some improvements? It seemed a bit finicky which makes me wonder what type of touch screen their utilizing.

"ya all know me I love the future" 😂

Cool machine and even cooler T-shirt.... Care to provide link to buy the T-shirt? :)

Great video! Where did you get your shirt? Lulz

This kind of brewing you did, how similar is it to the taste profile of an immersion brew with the hario?

Hey Lance!

❤

This is my 2nd Keurig coffee maker of this model. ru-vid.comUgkxBrV-RbF5Nk0Rlt9i15aao-YMzqzTG8Vf The first worked fine for more than 2 years, and I could still get a decent cup of coffee out of it if I fiddled with it when I decided to replace it. The problem I had with my first unit was this: When attempting to brew a cup of coffee, the unit would either keep brewing until the coffee was undrinkable or it would not run long enough and the coffee produced was way too strong. I cleaned the unit as best I could but it did not help. So in the end it was just too much trouble to get a good cup of coffee out of it, so I decided to replace it with a new one, which has been working great since I unpacked it.

I just don't like everything crammed in one unit because they always end up becoming anchors when one major component goes wrong. Just look how many broken bean to cup machines you can buy online for a pittance provided you go through the hoops to repair it.

I just checked, and as of March 2023, it costs $800. Not for me ... I can spend less than half that and get an Ode 2. I find fussing with my scales and pour over a nice focusing chore in the morning, I don't need an automated dripping device.

I want it, but only the brew portion...

кофемолка этой кофеварки лучше кофемолки дф64? Лучше ли она чем ручные Timemore X lite и 1zpresso zp6

I always think products like this are weird when they don't offer a standalone without the grinder, most people wanting an auto pour over more than likely have grinders XD

This machine is great. Personally though, I prefer the manual labour of making my cup of coffee - it's like driving a manual stick vs an automatic transmission. I think what's also missing in the whole coffee community is the lack of reproducibility in making a great cup of coffee. In the end of the day, it's not the gear, it's the barista. Manufacturers should work more closely with roasters to allow home baristas alike to re-produce consistent high quality espresso that is reproducible and consistent across its customer base and community.

hmm Gevi Vs Xbloom? :O

Thanks for clarifying that 3 ml/sec means 3 ml comes out per seconds LOL ;)

This just kills all the fun of pour over.

If Dyson made a coffee machine...🤣

4:59 is that a fart? I'm sure I heard him fart.

Coffee council... Would you give this video a 10 out of 10? Yes, we would

You can't boil water & pump it out unless you want to spray boiling water all over the place. You have to be sub-boiling.

I can’t concentrate on anything but the clock behind you
