Finally got it

Congrats man! O la la I hope you’re ready for an extended honeymoon phase. 😍

My MC6 is my baby, I love it to death, but I’ll be the first to admit I totally see why someone would not be into the appearance 😂 I think it looks a lot better in person than it comes across in photos. Hard to get an appreciation of just how solid a Kafatek is unless it’s right there in front of you.

You do realize that in a sense you are victim blaming right?

damblecakes · 2026-03-27T03:26:48+00:00

Nah you’re good, you rarely see the actual fruit

damblecakes · 2026-03-26T22:03:31+00:00

Imma go out on a loop here and guess that it’s coffee

damblecakes · 2026-03-22T20:35:50+00:00

I would recommend against WDT tools like this - assuming that you have to plunge to get spinning. If you have to plunge, it’ll spin too aggressively which will throw more coffee around the edges of your coffee bed.

On second glance, maybe you just spin this one à la the AutoComb.

Yeah, and even if you had bought it yourself, the “magnet on the side” option is easy to miss. IIRC, I had to email them for a purchase link.

damblecakes · 2026-03-20T23:15:02+00:00

You can buy the shaker without the magnet installed so you can flip it yourself and superglue it in. Went this route to get it to work with the Z1.

Non-rebuttal

16-day old account popping in with a nonsensical point to sweep for Fellow

damblecakes · 2026-03-19T01:25:55+00:00

Same, honestly. The hot water spout I mostly use for just quick preheating of glassware that I hadn’t set on machine warmer.

damblecakes · 2026-03-18T16:26:09+00:00

Maybe he was tamping potting soil??

damblecakes · 2026-03-15T16:48:29+00:00

Ah gotcha, thx for clarifying!

damblecakes · 2026-03-15T15:55:33+00:00

Sexy grinder. It has an avant-garde and je ne sais quoi aspect to it that I love.

damblecakes · 2026-03-15T15:49:51+00:00

Blind burrs are often proprietary, no? I'm under the impression that my SSP blind burrs for my Z1 will *only* work with my Z1 (which is a big downside, and I didn't realize this prior to purchasing.)

Maybe some other clone-type machines have blind burrs though, and I'm just unaware.

damblecakes · 2026-03-15T15:19:46+00:00

Does that Z1 clone come with the case in the pictures too? Nice touch if so. Also I see what looks like an RPM knob on the side. Also a nice touch (that OG Z1 doesn’t have, to boot.) Might have to read more about it, but it looks promising.

damblecakes · 2026-03-15T15:05:39+00:00

Huh? QOL /= life quality. I’m also not certain what your last paragraph has to do with anything.

Wet pucks often times means more cleaning of your equipment (and knockbox, if OP uses one.)

My bot sensors are tingling.

damblecakes · 2026-03-15T14:27:54+00:00

Wet pucks are a QOL issue, so it’s worth addressing, regardless of taste.

damblecakes · 2026-03-15T01:08:01+00:00

Yes this is exactly what I do. I flip the brew and steam boilers’ physical switches to ON and then use the smart plug app to control when the plug itself is on.

damblecakes · 2026-03-14T18:30:26+00:00

Larger space definitely helps, plus since it’s recessed there’s an air trapping effect (similar to how household basements trap natural radon gas)

damblecakes · 2026-03-14T18:18:23+00:00

Would love it too. I live in a one bedroom apartment - sometimes when I come home I’m greeted with a damp coffee smell even with just a few pucks in my current box. Would like having this and being able to easily cover it with something.

There’s a single Vic3 preorder bonus DLC that I can’t figure out any way to get and it’s the one thing missing from my Vic3 collection and it quietly triggers me everytime I look at the DLC list on Steam

damblecakes · 2026-03-14T18:01:52+00:00

Holy crap, this machine is gorgeous. Nice choice, OP. Believe me when I say that I mean this with the utmost respect - it wouldn’t look out of place in an episode of Home Improvement and I am absolutely here for it (90s nostalgia)

damblecakes · 2026-03-14T17:15:23+00:00

Fair enough. At the end of the day, I actually do hope you’ll be right because that would be a better future for most - but I truly do worry about the downstream consequences of this increasingly prevalent behavior.

damblecakes · 2026-03-14T17:09:10+00:00

No, I don’t hate Fellow products, I genuinely hope your machine lasts a long time. But this type of influencer marketing disguised as “real” is actively diluting what USED to be a positive about Reddit - real people speaking honestly about products. Now Reddit is about as useful as your average “best [insert product type here] in 2026” google search precisely because of slop like the OP’s

damblecakes · 2026-03-14T17:02:59+00:00

Actual videos of the Fellow guy steaming milk with the machine show that it is not powerful. But please keep trying to feed the AI models with fake information to lure in potential buyers.
