I know that you're probably thinking that Bean to Cup Espresso machines aren't worth considering. Personally, I'm never going to be using one for my morning espresso. But that doesn't mean that there's no use in them, and for a lot of people, learning how to dial in an espresso machine isn't on their list of life goals. The taste doesn't measure up, but I just think we shouldn't go being snobby when people tell us they have one of these things.

Was James Hoffmann Wrong About The DF64?
So James Hoffman reviewed the Turin DF64, and after I got one I noticed a LOT of changes in the version I had compared to what he said about it in his review. It's an awesome little espresso grinder and I wanted to set the record straight after using it for the past few months.

How To Fix Sour Espresso with Perfect Puck Prep
If your espresso starts in drips but finishes too fast, you might be getting channelling caused by bad puck prep. Just tamping isn't good enough anymore with more delicate and lighter roasted coffees, so here are a few things I do to get MUCH better espresso with just a few inexpensive steps.

Sanremo CUBE - A Dream Home Espresso Machine?
I got to try out the Sanremo CUBE a little while ago and it was really fun to play with. It might just be the most beautiful home espresso machine on the market right now! But is it worth the roughly $3400 asking price?

How To Pull A Staccato Shot | Best Espresso Ever?
💚 My SkillShare Course: https://skl.sh/2X0h5la 💚 I hope you'll try it.
I've been experimenting with layered espresso shots and they are without a doubt one of the biggest improvements to my espresso experience along with upgrading my grinder and properly distributing coffee grinds. I can promise you that no cafes are making this because it's just too extreme in terms of time taken to make it and it's so new and niche. In my opinion it is one of the most reliable ways to make the best shot you've ever tasted!
Big thanks to Robert McKeon Aloe for writing about this on his blog and coaching me on it:

ROK Espresso Maker Review | 2 Years Later
Check out my beginner's espresso and latte art course on SkillShare: https://skl.sh/2X0h5la
I've had the ROK Espresso Maker for over 2 years now and I wanted to do a long-term review. When I did my original ROK video I had just gotten my camera and had no idea how to do things like colour grading and measuring exposure properly. I'm so glad I had time to do a better review this time round with all the knowledge of this coffee machine I've gotten over the past 2 years.
