========================================
Ever since quarantine, home-brewing has become my daily driver. As it was harder to reach our local cafés, I started dabbling into espresso-making and fell quite deep into the rabbit hole.
The first time I spotted the Noon East Coffee Maker, I couldn't resist its aesthetically chic and retro exterior. Best of all, the attractively affordable price point was what sold me. I've had the machine for a month now and thought I'd share some in-depth review, honest pros and cons about the machine and how I worked around them in order to try and achieve cafe-quality drinks. Bear in mind, the freshness of beans, a quality grinder and good technique are huge factors in achieving this as well. Check out my feeble attempt (LOLOL) at breaking down and explaining how I steam milk in order to create latte art for my drinks.
Disclaimer: I am in no way a coffee connoisseur nor a professional barista. So please don't come for me with your pitchforks! haha XD Let me know in the comments section if you have your own tips! It'd be swell to share and have us all learn from them too!
========================================
brewing tools mentioned in the video and extra accessories:
⭐️ Noon East Espresso Machine - JandAonline
⭐️ Bottomless Portafilter, Baskets and 2-in-1 Tamper and Distribution Tool all in 51mm
- shopee.ph/neouza_go.ph
⭐️ Stainless Steel Pitcher - shopee.ph/spring2.ph
⭐️ Timemore C2 grinder - shopee.ph/timemoreph
Not mentioned in the video but I would highly recommend you replace the C2's original stainless steel burr with their Titanium Coated Burr if you're using it for espresso on a daily.
========================================
Edit: I've been getting a lot of questions about the bottomless / naked portafilter.
Here's the exact item name and link to the portafilter. It comes with a free 16g-18g basket:
NEOUZA 51mm Bottomless Portafilter for Donlim,KCB,Petrus,KONKA,Gevi,Noon East Coffee Machines etc.
shopee.ph/NEOUZA-51mm-Bottoml...
⚠️ WARNING ⚠️ Make sure it's not the Delonghi version and always ask the seller to confirm if you can use it for the Noon East.
TAKE NOTE: You will need an ESPRESSO capable grinder to be able to use a bottomless portafilter. Use a burr grinder. Avoid blade grinders. If you’re on a budget, i suggest you start with hand grinders. Most of them are even more capable than electric ones without having to rob a bank. 😆 Best to ask seller first before purchasing.
I'll be posting another video soon on maintenance. Stick around for that! Really appreciate all of your kind words. Didn't think my video would reach alota u! Thank you so much!

I had mine since July 2021 but I still can't froth milk properly 😥 I only saw your it recently, so thanks to your video, I have a better grasp on what I should follow to achieve silky milk for latte art. I would appreciate it if you can do a more close-up video tutorial for frothing milk using the noon east machine and what is the difference if the pannarello wand is used 😊 More power to you and kudos to your content, hope you get more subscribers, you deserve it because of your quality videos (including detailed description, timestamps/chapters, and hands-on comments)

Wow! This made me fully decide on what to buy! Thank you so much 😊
May I know what specific model did you have for c2 grinder? :) pwede pa send ug link? Hihi thank you
@@are_kei_eyyy5391 On the video, I used this one: shopee.ph/TIMEMORE-Chestnut-C2-White-Manual-Coffee-Bean-Grinder-i.221541328.5846532318?position=1
Fair warning, it takes awhile to grind for espresso. Quite the arm workout too. Best to use a more reliable hand grinder that's made for espresso ooor an electric grinder. I find that the 600n works just as well and it's only less than 2k on shopee. :)
@@VixenYoung hello again, I'd like to ask, regarding the portafilter, i bought the one like yours. But gahi kaau cya i.lock? Or the one i got has defect?
@@are_kei_eyyy5391 oh no? Did u buy the one for noon east? Not the one that says for delonghi? 😬 would u mind contacting the seller?
@@VixenYounghi po, ano po grind size na gamit mo sa 600n for espresso using this noon east po ty po.
Yey! Thanks for a very informative video about this machine 🤍
Galing! Very informative lalo na sa mga noob na katulad ko.
Thank you po! ❤️
What a fantastic vid! 👌🏻 Sadly, I got the 1.5l version this morning and after just six cups have already filed a return. It switched off automatically for the first two times and the coffee was fab (Blue mountain beans) but from then on it would not stop and produced 160-170 ml of coffee-water. Tried it more times with just water to stop wasting coffee with same result. I'm so so disappointed & angry too. Be better #noon
your video is soooo relaxing, feels like living in a country side
Great video! Thank you! 💓💓💓What do you think about the other similar Noon 15 bar espresso machine??
The of white machine is out of stock lucky you to have this one mashallah :)
Love this review. ❤️ can I ask for the 2 in 1 tamper link pls. Thank you.
I love it! I’ve got the same machine.. I wonder how to clean it.. have you already cleansed it?
Hi what brand of naked portafilter you use in your noon machine? Because I bought for my noon machine but its not fit in its nouza 51mm.
Hii! I've been wanting to ask for a long time, where did you buy your bottomless portafilter? I bought one before, but it didn't fit because the ears were thick, it didn't lock when I put it in. Hoping that you'll respond. Thank you!
Hi! Can you make a video on how fine do you grind your coffee
Hi. Am having trouble using mine as the switch lights dont come on in sequence as depicted on your tutorial. Am i doing something wrong?
What’s the size of the portafilter you have ordered please ? I have the same machine
what size is your bottomless porta filter?
My machine started making some loud noises when preparing coffee what do you think is the problem ? Also where to buy the 3rd party tamper?
What's the size of the wooden portafilter that you bought ?
What is the size of the porta filter you bought from shopee? And is it the neouza?
is noon east can use delonghi portafilter or other brand?
How long Does it take for the light to turn green
Hi po may idea po ba kayo where makabili ng double mouth bottomless portafilter?
Would you mind sending me the link of the shop where you bought your tamper?
hello whered you get the tamper? :)
Hands down! Best review! 🤍 Got my noon east 1.5L coffee machine, and I am having a hard time in steaming milk, good thing I saw this video about the pannarello wand and that was the thing that was making so much bubbles , I'll try it again and hope it will work now coz I love lattes 🥺 I hope I can also apply it in my noon east 1.5L, I just bought it
Hi. I have this machine, but still using the stock portafilter. Na experience nyo po ba na nag auto eject yung portafilter?
May i know the size of your portafiller that u bought?
Hi! What is your review after months of using??
Wow! Just wow! 🥹
can u pls tell if the coffee machine is good or not because i am trying to buy one
From where the non-pressurized you can add the link please
Hello! Thank you for your video. I am planning to buy this machine so I searched for a review. Mukang leaning towards na ako dito as my first machine. It is my first time. Ask ko lang po ano grinder mo? :) Also sana po pashare ng link ng mga pinagbilhan mo hahaha. Thanks!!
hello! whats the size of the tamper you bought on shopee? 💞
Вкусный кофе.хороша кофемашина
Hi, been weeks using Noon east, hirap pa din po ako mag steam ng milk for latte
Hi! I’ve watched this video several times hehe! Does it really make a difference in making a good espresso if I buy the same porta filter na ginamit mo po? 😅😅😅
Bought this machine and I'm still struggling to make a silky froth. I thought I'm doing the right angle and stuff and i can see a vortex but the result is always the same. I want to make a latte art too 😭
The most detailed review and way of using the noon east machine. I bought a bottomless portafilter because of this but I don't get the same result (no coffee froth at all) so I'm not sure if it is my tamping, the machine (same coffee machine) or the portafilter (which I bought from the same shop as yours).
What is the size of portafilter
I just saw your video! I use the same machine. Do you know what's the issue if putol putol ung Flow pag nagbbrew? Before kasi, it doesn't do that. 🥺
I need help. My machine won't dispense water even though I've read the manual 10 times. Still won't work, maybe my machine is faulty.
Thank you for this review! Very pretty + informative. I plan to buy a Noon for my room and for me to use when I move back to the city. May I know what tamper you used/link, if any? 😌
Thanks, Nikki! You can find all the links at the description box above. 😃
hi, ask lng po. anu shop ng shoppe nio nabili yun non-pressurized.. anu size.. thanku po
Hi vixen! Got my noon east for almost a month already and How i wished i saw this vlog of yours sooner. It's the first time I've heard about the pannarello wand and that was the thing that was making so much bubbles all along! That's why I can't make that silky milk for latte art, wew! Would you mind sharing the link on the portafilter you bought? Would like something similar to yours at it looks quite classic. Thank you so much!

@@VixenYoung thank you so much!
Where did you buy this exposed portafilter? I did not find a suitable size that is compatible with the Noon East machine. Please tell me where did you buy the exposed portafilter
Hey there! I posted a link on the description box. Hope you can check it out. Thank you!
2:42 what’s the name of this tool?
Hi 👋 are you still using this machine? Is it still good any issues
من وين اجيب البورتا فلتر المكشوف؟
I love this video. I’ve been having problems with my noon east machine. No crema at all 🥺
Oh no! Are you using the portafilter that came with the machine? It's hard not to achieve any "faux crema" or foam with a pressurized basket.
Take note lang po that crema is a sign of the freshness of your beans. When I say fresh, I mean coffee beans that are freshly roasted. The fresher, the more the crema. This is bec espresso machines tend to use pressure to bring out the gases trapped w/n the beans during roasting which forms crema. Store-bought beans are sometimes waaay passed its roasting date but sometimes ma chamba din. 😆
Thing is, crema does not affect taste. If anything, it's more bitter. That's why you have to mix it in before tasting it. So don't fret! At the end of the day, if it still tastes good, it's all that matters. But if you really wanted to, try using a new bag of beans and please please please seal the bag properly or use an airtight container. It helps to keep coffee fresh and gases in.
Hope this helps! ❤️
@@VixenYoung yes i’m using it. But i read your replies here and immediately bought the one in the vid lol. I think my water pressure is too low. I used to achieve a little crema before. Now it’s none talaga so sad
@@CheidMangueraDoesMakeup Ahhh ok. Now that's a different story. Hahaha
It's true. This machine really doesn't have enough pressure in the pump. That's why izzz cheap and uses the pressurized basket. To counter that, I would use ample amount of beans... 16-18g in a double shot basket should do the trick and tamp hard so it helps bring up the pressure. Also, do you have a grinder? Bec pressurized baskets need really really finely ground beans. I also have another hack I use so that I can trick the machine into adding more pressure. I might show it on another video. Finally, the machine might need descaling.
@@VixenYoung same issues here. I bought the one you used here and in the initial use, there's crema, pero after wala na, kahit anong tamp ko. :( i also noticed na lumakas ung flow ng water. May recalibration ba na pwede gawin? Thank you!
@@aurasevilla2476 May I ask what grinder you’re using? Is it espresso-capable?
The age of the coffee (i’m talking about from its roast date) should be taken into consideration. The fresher the coffee, the more the crema. As your coffee ages, you’ll need to dial-in your coffee beans finer every morning. Try to watch “how to dial-in beans for espresso” videos on youtube. They’ll have an in-depth explanation on how to get good extraction with crema for your coffee.
Hello po. Do you have the link for the tamper? :-)
Can u share the link where u bought the portafilter and basket
Hey Marc! 👆🏻👆🏻👆🏻 Check out my description box. All links are there. Hope this helps!
We are requesting a follow-up review, please. Did you experience any issues? How do you maintain the machine? Does it keep consistent quality? Thanks!
Thanks for the reminder! I’ve actually started shooting for the next few videos on post-review, maintenance and other extraction tips. Just need to squeeze in some editing and post processing in le busy sched.😆😆😆 Hopefully before the month ends, i get to post at least one of em. As usual, it’ll be honest and in-depth! 🖤🖤🖤
Price of this machine?
Anong size ng portafilter mo ganyan din kasi machine ko anong link sa shopee
I would like to ask about the size of the Portafilters for this machine?
Hey there! This machine uses a 51mm portafilter. More info in my description box. Hope this helps!
Hey! How much espresso shots can we get in a single brew? Like do I have to use new ground coffee after one shot?
With the stock portafilter, it’s usually a single shot. Make sure to weigh your output too so you get a decent pull and consistency. 1:2-2.5 is a good starting point
And yes, always new grounds after every shot. :)
@@VixenYoung Should I get this or a 3.5 bar capacity? Given I don't drink cappuccinos or lattes much but rather prefer simple americano with a little milk.
@@syedahiba9664 absolutely! ❤️ That sounds like a lungo. Ultimately, your preference is what matters most. 😉
you did a great review on this, thank you! would also like to ask mga nearly ilang seconds or minute po yung pag froth nyo ng milk to achieve that texture for latte? thanks in adv. 😍
Thank you po!
With regards to steaming... i've never really timed it. So I checked back on the video since I did it in real-time (cguro a few seconds video cut). I'm guessing about 45sec to a minute or so? Might also depend on how cold your milk is.
I also noticed that steam is actually still building up when the steam light turns on so I start steaming AFTER 15secs. And weirdly, it's strongest when the steam light turns off! Perfect time to create a vortex once you're done injecting air. 😅 Hope i'm making sense hahahah Sooo, tantsa2x nlng when it comes to technique. 😆
Hi, I'll be using my noon east espresso machine for tge first time but I've been having problems using it. There's no water flowing out of it!!! I don't know what to do hehe do u have any tips?
Hi Jade! Someone in the comment section asked the same question as well. If it's your first use, I'd say it's a factory defect. Please contact your seller right away. :)
Kasama n po ba ung pansukat
Hi! What’s the size of the portafilter and the tamper from Shopee? Thanks! 🌸
Hey there! Size is 51mm po. Make sure the bottomless portafilter is the one that fits the Noon East and not the one for Delonghi. Sometimes some people I know get mistaken and end up selling or giving it away.
Here's the exact item name and link. It comes with a free 16g-18g basket na din po. :

Hope this helps!
Wow, thank you! Really happy I saw your video as I have been struggling what size to get for Noon East! Thank you! 💖
Where did you get the portafilter ???
Hi! Thanks for asking. I have links in my description box. You may check it there. :)
Is it not possible to get crema on the espresso without the non pressurised portafilter? I ordered mine still didnt recieve it yet. But I watching tutorials beforehand to be able to use it and yours was the best one so far And my biggest worry is not getting a good shot of espresso cuz then the whole coffee tastes bad. Btw are you a barista?
Hey there! I’m actually not a professional barista at all. i’m a visual designer who just happens to also love home brewing and have the tendency to nerd out on things honestly 😆😆😆 but to answer your question…
There are plenty of variables in creating a good shot of espresso. Entry-level espresso machines like this are ideally targeted for home brewing beginners who might not have a grinder at home nor keen enough to go through all the aspects in creating the cafe-style espresso. That’s why, most often than not, they come with pressurized baskets. it’s more forgiving with grind size making it easy to use pre-ground grocery coffee. Depending on the freshness of ur beans, it is able to create faux foamy crema bec of the added pressure from the basket.
Here’s the thing tho…. Espresso (or coffee in general) is all about the TASTE. Crema is only an indication of how fresh your coffee is. But technically, the crema itself does not impact the taste of the espresso. While it can seem that a good crema is the definition of a perfect cup of espresso, it is not as critical as some make it out to be. in reality, it is absolutely possible to have a great tasting cup of espresso without the perfect crema.
If you enjoy your cup, that's really all that matters. Don't get the crema blues or think that you somehow failed at your attempts to pull a good shot. Remember, the beans, roast, and technique play a big role and one or all of those may not sway things in your favor.
Hope this helps!
@@VixenYoung yeah you did successfully nerd out about espresso to the point I assumed you're a professional barista😂. Thank you for the advise, for the longest time I believed perfect espresso means perfect crema even tho I never made espresso by my own hands before, I used to judge it based on cafe espressos. But now I learned the truth. Can you tell me which type of roast beans make the best espresso? Also if you could mention some coffee bean brands for it that's found in the middle east it would be great. Thank you😊
Hello, can you please provide the link for the bottomless portafilter you got from shopee? bought mine and it doesn’t fit with my noon east :( thank you so much!
Hey there! Links are in the description box 👆🏻👆🏻👆🏻 always best to message the seller first before purchasing just to make sure 😃
Does the coffee stay hot after milk frothing?
It actually does cool down a bit as I would froth my milk. But I don’t really mind it that much.
Otherwise, I would suggest to froth the milk first and then extract the espresso.
Nanginginig kankasi habang nag aart kaya nanginig din yung art
what's your portafilter and tamper size?
Heya! Please check the description box for more info! Thank you. :)
Hello po. Mas okay po ba ang fine grind vs medium for this kind of machine po? Thank you. And great video by the way. Mas naintindihan ko pano gamitin ung machine 😊
Awww thanks, Ayesha!
Fine espresso grind is the way to go po 😃 But if you’re using the portafilter that comes with the machine, it’s more forgiving with the grind size since it uses a pressurized basket. I’ve tried experimenting with medium to coarse grind coffee (i used really strong dark beans BTW), and they’ve extracted well enough. Hope this helps!
Hi! I just bought the same coffee machine and your review made me decide to finally purchase one. I just wanna ask if you could share the shopee link where you purchased your porta filter and baskets. I'd appreciate it a lot. And not to mention your DP looks familiar.
