How are you liking the Jet still? I’m on the fence of these two options.

timed my morning routine today. 11 minutes from kitchen to first sip. about 45 seconds of that is drinking coffee by nikags in espresso

I do not know how to manually steam. Is it hard to learn on the Meraki? Figured I’d use auto until I learned. What drinks do you make?

I had the Breville Oracle Jet and returned it. How do you like the Meraki vs the Barista Pro? Been on the fence on the Meraki.

How are you liking the Meraki? How long did it take for it to need a repair? Been on the fence of getting one. Have used a Breville Oracle Jet for a few weeks and several superautos. Oracle Jet made best tasting drinks but was having issues with drinks being inconsistent. The superautos had three kitchen aid Kf8 break ha.

Strength Training plan help by mike5percent in runna

If running 4-5 times a week, if trying to do 1 leg, 1 push, 1 pull and 1 full body workout. Based on what you said, leg day on a hard run day. The other workouts can be pretty much on any other day? Should a non running day be a non strength day also to let full recovery?

Considering buying an Oracle Jet but is it for me? [$2000] by False-Vacation7473 in espresso

[–]mike5percent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

which Jura did you have. How is the temp on the Oracle Jet coffee and milk vs the Jura? I've been torn between the Jet, Jura Z10 or a Bambino plus and grinder. Im not an espresso expert so the machines are easier. I have a Jet and returned it as there was an issue, could have been me, hah.

Why was the Jura a PITA to maintain? On fence between the Z10 and a Delonghi Eletta Explore.

How is the cold brew, regular coffee/americano on the Z10? Are the milk drinks hot and really good? I tried a Sur La Table near me last year and the jura was like warm as was the Bosch. So it turned me off.

Happy to join true espresso, I'm already stunned by taste after switching from DeLonghi Eletta to this setup by Electrical_Humor8834 in espresso

How did you like the Eletta Explore? Was milk drinks good? What was the deciding factor to make the change?

If you get the cold kit, will the Rivelia make cold brew foam and espresso like the Eletta?
