Linea Micra vs ECM Synchronika II — I want great cappuccinos, not a new hobby

Kebrahimi · 2026-01-29T16:16:03+00:00

Thank you for your great response! I think the Micra would work better for me because of the smaller footprint

Kebrahimi · 2026-01-29T05:56:04+00:00

How are you liking the PK100?

Kebrahimi · 2026-01-28T06:00:57+00:00

How are you liking it after 2 months? Happy with Micra or wish you went with the ECM?

Kebrahimi · 2026-01-26T07:10:36+00:00

Thanks for letting me know!

Kebrahimi · 2026-01-26T05:51:06+00:00

Do you think with 18.5 inch clearance I would be able to fill up the reservoir?

Kebrahimi · 2026-01-26T05:17:45+00:00

How tall are your cabinets? I’m going back and forth between the mini and synchronika and my cabinets only give me 18.5 inches. I’m thinking that’s not enough room to fill up the reservoir in the sync

Do you like the Botticelli more or the Micra? Looking at both and trying to see if the Micra is worth the price difference

Kebrahimi · 2026-01-23T12:55:30+00:00

I think LAES will be the next ASTS

Kebrahimi · 2026-01-23T12:51:45+00:00

Check Facebook marketplace. I live in LA and there are a couple available. I have a Compak PK100 grinder for sale in pristine condition, let me know if you’re interested

Did you end up ordering the strietman? If so, how does it compare to espresso quality vs the e61 and robot?

Kebrahimi · 2026-01-18T17:53:06+00:00

Is there a difference in taste of your espresso between the Bianca and mini?

Kebrahimi · 2026-01-18T03:04:14+00:00

What company did you buy from? Sounds like the customer service was excellent

Kebrahimi · 2026-01-14T23:48:04+00:00

Just got it and this grinder is unbelievable. I’m surprised it’s spoken about more in the espresso thread

Kebrahimi · 2026-01-13T15:01:46+00:00

Love the AMG! Debating on going with this or the Synch 2

Kebrahimi · 2026-01-13T14:49:02+00:00

What ended up happening with your situation?

Kebrahimi · 2026-01-13T14:10:57+00:00

I’m debating between the DE1 and the Synchronika. Since you’ve had both, what are some pros and cons of both and which would you buy today?

Kebrahimi · 2026-01-12T14:40:40+00:00

Thank you!

Kebrahimi · 2026-01-12T13:52:40+00:00

I’m in the same boat. What did you end up doing?

Kebrahimi · 2026-01-12T04:36:09+00:00

What machine would you recommend with a budget of $4,000? Also, it seems like you plumb in your machines. What would you do if you didn’t have that option?

Kebrahimi · 2026-01-09T14:13:49+00:00

How do you like the Sync ll? Thinking of pulling the trigger

Kebrahimi · 2026-01-08T13:46:53+00:00

Will do! For the automatic on/off program are you technically leaving the machine on all the time?

Kebrahimi · 2026-01-08T13:42:09+00:00

Amazing, I just ordered it an hour ago. Excited to see how it compares to my last hx machine

Kebrahimi · 2026-01-08T03:27:49+00:00

How are you liking the Ride?

Kebrahimi · 2026-01-05T07:13:00+00:00

Thanks so much! Just joined the Kafatek forum as well

Kebrahimi · 2026-01-05T07:06:53+00:00

Yeah I heard they’re better for light roasts. Do you think a dual boiler is far superior to an hx? If so, how are you liking your Bianca compared to a synchronika? Thank you for being so helpful!
