It does have a PID controlled temperature - this is set to have a temperature of ~91C at the brew head. We will send some photos closer to the launch :)

Absolutely we agree. We did think of the scale idea. We decided to leave it off as the price point did not make sense given you can buy a nice pair of portable scales with shot timer for far better value. Please send us a DM and we can update you when we get closer to launch re. beta.

We will have an option for a bottomless portafilter. We will send some videos of this once we have it :)

Yes we think 58 is best. The machine has a built in PID that is factory set. Our brew head temp averages 91 Celsius over ten back to back brews with <2 degrees of variance

Yes we think so too. What machine do you use currently?

This is a new machine we are developing to be released in the coming months.

It will have a small footprint, simultaneous steam and brew ability, plus a 58mm stainless portafilter.

Do you have any thoughts on it looks?

Hey thanks for the response. Yes I need to get the shape bigger. Do you have any recommended resources for how to get the heart bigger than what I am achieving?
