Exemplary, For The Expenditure
I required a replacement espresso machine for morning Americanos, which I prefer occasionally as an alternative to my beloved Mystic Monk Ethiopian pour-over. After some research I concluded this “Casabrews” machine was worth a gamble, as it was significantly discounted, so I was able to include a 3 year Amazon warranty, should the gamble prove to be an aberration. “Casabrews” is a new company, but they seem to have done their homework and developed an inexpensive espresso machine that performs quite adequately. The machine arrived well packaged, and included accessories of excellent quality. The portafilter is pleasantly substantial, as are the several filters themselves. All perform as desired. Operation of the machine itself is quite elementary and straightforward. The footprint on my coffee bar is modest, yet adds a pleasing ambiance. In conclusion, as of today, I recommend this Casabrews machine. Should I have an issue or any consequence, I will amend this review. Salute’!

For the discounted price, itâs great.
I got this slightly discounted at $170, and for that price, this quality of the machine and its extraction is great.Perfect for beginners. I think the default settings are a great start, and someone who just wants their daily Americano or latte and doesnât want to become an espresso scientist can just quickly learn the basics and make their drinks quickly. But for those wanted to experiment a bit more, you can adjust extraction temperature and volume.Extraction is most definitely on the fast side for me, but might have more to do with the fact I donât have a dedicated burr grinder and just use my general purpose grinder on the finest setting. Also, the double portafilter for me only holds about 14g of grounds, which again might have to do more with my ground size.That being said, using about 13g of grounds and the default volume setting with my grinder yields a shot that tastes good and even to me.So if youâre very particular about your shot and need to make a lot of fine adjustments, this probably isnât the machine for you. But someone like me who prefers espresso based drinks and wants to stop spending 5 dollars at the shop everyday, this is a perfect option.

Great product!
I’m quite impressed with this little machine. I didn’t want to spend much on a espresso machine because I’m certainly not a coffee snob… maybe just getting a bit snooty. 🙂 I don’t have a sensitive palate so probably wouldn’t be able to tell the difference between espresso from this machine and $2000 machine. I did trade up from a cheaper model of Casabrew to this one because I am able to adjust the temperature hotter on this one than the other one. It is a lighter machine so have to hold it while putting in and taking out the portafilter. It would be nice to have a machine with a dual boiler but to me it is not worth the extra $, at this time anyway. All in all I’m very happy with this one.

Great!
I looked into espresso machines alot and didn’t want to pay $600 for a Breville especially because I’m new to it. Lots of sources agreed that the machine didn’t matter as much as other stuff, so I went with the Casabrews Ultra, even though it is a newer machine. I’ve had it for about a week and everything has been going great after a few learning curves.Per the recommendation of youtubers, I got a bottomless Portafilter which is also by casabrews and working great. My only recommendation is to throughly read the instruction book before and during the process of figuring out the machine. I love this thing :)) will update if anything happens!P.S: pictured is the Kingrinder K6, the normcore tamp, and the mhw-3bomber adjustable wdt

So easy and delicious espresso.
I did lots of research before finalizing with the Ultra Casabrews. This espresso machine is wonderful and so easy to do. Brews amazing espresso and the milk frother does a nice cream for the top. I still canât figure out how to get the milk fluffy, so what I do I use my hand wand and the I put in the frother to warm it up. Comes out amazing. When done, I run just water from the top to clean out the grinds and the wipe off. Make sure you have a bigger coffee cup under it for the water. Always wipe off the steam wand right away as well. I also run a little steam for 5 seconds to get out all the mild in the wand. You will not be disappointed with this machine. Customer service is a A+++++.

An excellent machine that doesnât cost an arm and a leg
I used to be a barista. I am used to working in machines that cost over $3,000.I missed making myself espresso in the mornings, but I didnât need this extra large, extra expensive machine that I didnât have room for.I can tell you what matters most isnât the machine, itâs the beans and your method of grinding, tamping and brewing. Good quality beans get you that thick creama.So, I bought this machine. The price was incredibly reasonable given you are getting a steam wand, a porta filter, and you can customize the shot temp and timing.So you can do MOST things the commercial machines can EXCEPT, it doesnât have a dual water chamber. So you canât brew and froth at the same time. But youâre not going to get that on most of the stuff you can find in home unless you pay top dollar.My only real complaint is just the noise. Mine can be a bit loud and the pitch of the steam want can make my ears ring.But all in all, itâs a great beginner machine, budget friendly, pretty good quality, comes with most things youâll need to start. Iâll definitely be looking out for more CASABREWS products.
