too fast? brew espresso, first and second important things are, grinder and fresh roasted beans.

hey is that the fiema grinder? I’m looking to get one from your shop but your opening hours are a bit weird.. Is the grinder any good? how does it compare to the solis 166?

solis 166 no fine enough for espresso, conical burr but the scale use slope plate lock, ground coffee no even.

I’m glad to find out it’s actually possible to make good espresso and steam milk on this.

What filter are you using on this machine?

no my shop, landy is the shop owner, i am a free helper to solve any problems about coffee in hong kong, of course is free for everyone.
forget 166, 2 friends of mind bought 166 and need to modify then to brew a espresso. fiema 600n can compare to 167, tasted and no much different between these 2 machines.

no any trick or cheat, brewing espresso need 3 things, frist and second are good grinder and fresh beans, last one is machine. i know some people say that under us$250 machine no good enough, temperature no stable, pressure……….. i just want to show the truth to anyone that under us$250″include the machine and grinder”, can make a good latte or capp.
