What owners say
Checked Oct 22, 2026Too few owner reviews to judge. In our score this is 1.75 of 2 points. How we score
- Auto Dial-In: replying to a new owner, another owner says the machine started at grind 25 and called a sour, over-volume shot balanced; owners in the thread advise turning Auto Dial-In off and grinding finer by hand (r/espresso, April 30, 2026). reddit.com
