- I was pleasantly surprised by Eureka's new line of coffee machines. This is the first of several videos, as I'll be holding onto mine for a few months at least. If you want a compact and competent espresso maker, this is worth a look.

Cant wait for the Eureka mignon single dose pro comes out and you review it,it will be a great day 😁
Just my personal opinion, your water temp measurement technique is improvable, group head free flow will always give you higher temp. Anyway thank you for take time to review this machine.
@@patidada6791 oh? You mean you don’t make espresso with an empty basket?
Excellent french accent with the word « gicleur ». 👌
I mean a flow control valve is an adjustable gicleur so it has uses even if you don't want to do flow profiling. During the extraction the hole size almost doesn't matter (if it isn't almost fully closed). But for preinfusion it controls how fast the chamber will fill. You could restrict flow for longer preinfusion and still hit 9 Bar during extraction, without the need of playing with it after setting it up.
What I'd really like to see is a machine with an easy-to-use external knob for adjusting the expansion valve. Being able to set the maximum pressure for each extraction (depending on the coffee) would be very handy and not so fiddly. Just pop in a blind basket, turn on the pump, and set the knob until you hit the desired max pressure. My machine takes about a dozen screws to access the expansion valve and then a long, fiddly tool to reach it from the top of the case, so it's too inconvenient to change even once per coffee bag

@@knipsi22 It's very cute but I don't want to give up the steam wand! Strange little machine
Thanks for the review. It’s seems like a desirable one to have on your kitchen worktop.
When you’re in London, will you pay Square Mile Coffee Roasters a visit?
(I think James prefers lighter roasts and shorter extractions than you do but I’d still love to hear your opinion about their espresso’s.
Just out of curiosity tbh.
Enjoy your trip!
Any thoughts on why Eureka think they can charge so much for this single boiler hx? I’ve seen the PID + rotary pump version of this machine on sale for a little over £2k. In that price range you can get some well-built and kitted out dual boilers from ECM, Profitec, Lelit, and there are respectable SB HX’s that cost considerably less.
Image if you had hated this machine, the incredible opportunities to incorporate some George Costanza quotes.
As for flow control, it's useful for grinding coarse and making a slow(er) drip "Americano." At least, that's my use for it as a strictly black coffee drinker.
Don’t you mean lungo instead of Americano?
So you dont feel that you usually get a shot with better body and less break up of the crema from a rotary pump ?
Honestly, a e61 machine with the "Eureka" name does has a certain caché. However, I have the Rocket Mozzafiato, which has the PID display hidden behind the drip tray, so you can oggle the classic italian design instead of AliExpress. 😂
HES BACCKK
machine looks great. you didn't mention price.
Is this made in house at eureka? Or is it the return favor for making the rocket grinders?
Looks like an ECM to me🤭isn’t that a Rocket?😂
@@c2329raECM was split into the new ECM and Rocket. They’re competitors now.
Why did you laugh at the end? I didn't get it.
“So, what do you think about this machine? Let me know in the comments.”
It’s a rather stander phrase that many CZcamsrs use to get more comments so ‘the algorithm’ will promote their video.
The “I really want to know” was sarcasm, hence the laughter.
Please donate the money to UNRWA.
E61 is such an outdated, crap, technology. We have thermoblock technology, thermal jet technology etc. It's time to move on from outdated concepts.
He who has not tasted grape says sour.
Says the person with a Polaroid camera as a profile picture. 😉
It’s not about having the latest cutting edge technology. It’s about the reliability, and easy serviceability. Get an e61 and in 50 years it’ll still be running
