I liberated my Rancilio Silvia from a relative who decided their covid hobby wasn’t as satisfying as they thought lol. But I still prefer espresso from my Flair most of the time since the Silvia still needs to be PID modded to have decent thermal management.
I swear if I end up getting the 58, I deserve to be thrown into the ocean. I initially bought the Neo, then sold it for the classic, then replaced the brew head with the pro brew head and pressure gauge.
Hahaha, it’s the never ending climb. I went straight for the 58 from a pour over setup because I truly can’t trust myself not to upgrade to it. The hand grinding is getting old though… the Zerno is calling my name but my wallet is desperately fighting back.
Yea, I agree, though one could argue having the money and time for an automatic machine and espresso machine is pretty Labor Aristocracy, haha.
That being said, I’m a huge fan of my Flair 58, no annoying thermal management issues (for the most part) and great turbos.
