FAQs

What should I look for in a home espresso machine?

When choosing a home espresso machine, consider your coffee preferences and skill level. Look for features like PID temperature control for consistent espresso, steam wand power for milk drinks, and build quality for durability. Manual machines offer control, while automatic ones provide convenience. Check the machine's size to ensure it fits your kitchen space.

Are manual or automatic espresso machines better for home use?

The choice between manual and automatic machines depends on your preferences. Manual machines, like those from La Marzocco, offer more control and are suited to experienced users. Automatic machines, such as those by Jura, are easier to use and ideal for beginners or those who prioritise convenience. Both can make excellent coffee, so choose based on your needs.

Do I need a separate grinder for a home espresso machine?

A separate grinder is highly recommended for the best results. Freshly ground coffee is crucial for quality espresso. Machines with built-in grinders, like some Breville models, are convenient, but standalone grinders like the Baratza or Eureka models often offer better grind consistency and can be upgraded independently.

What size espresso machine is best for a small kitchen?

For a small kitchen, compact machines like the Breville Bambino Plus or the De'Longhi Dedica are excellent options. They offer good performance without taking up much bench space. Measure your available space and check the machine's dimensions before purchasing.

How often should a home espresso machine be cleaned?

Home espresso machines should be cleaned daily by emptying the drip tray, backflushing (if applicable), and wiping down the steam wand. Perform a deeper clean with descaling and group head cleaning every few months, depending on use. Refer to the machine's manual for specific maintenance instructions.

What features help with milk-based coffee at home?

For milk-based coffee, look for machines with powerful steam wands and good milk texturing controls. Dual boiler or heat exchanger machines, like those from Rocket or Profitec, allow for simultaneous brewing and steaming, which is efficient for making multiple milk drinks.

Had my ECM Synchronika serviced by Espresso Works recently and figured the service was worth writing a review of my excellent experience. I bought my machine second hand and immediately encountered a leak from my flow control valve. Another 5-star rated company charged me an absolute fortune and didn't resolve the issue until the second visit. I had to show them how to fix the leak, and that it was two perished o-rings that caused it. The fix only requires 10 minutes of work and a few dollars in parts. They also returned my machine with a dent and several scratches. The reason I include this anecdote is because it doesn't seem uncommon for companies to offer servicing and repairs for premium machines and not actually know what they're doing or take any care in the quality of their work. Espresso Works is a welcome exception to this. Meaghan organised for Dom to both collect and return my machine; both times were prompt and on time. When it was returned, all surfaces had been wiped down and looked almost new again. All my valves, levers and taps are smoother and quieter than I'd have expected them to be on a several year old machine! They listened to what my concerns were about the machine before pickup and these were reflected in the service report on my invoice where each issue was looked into. In short, I highly recommend Espresso Works to anyone with a premium machine, especially those with ECM machines, as the work done on mine is fantastic and the experience interacting with their company was great.

Top quality customer service. Great product range for high-end home coffee machines. I had small issues with my Torre Peppina. They sent a technician straight away to get it fixed and followed up to ensure the machine was working perfectly. I recommend buying with a local like Espresso Works Perth WA for the extra assistance post-sale.

I have purchased several coffee machines from this store and I have always been impressed with the excellent service I receive every time I visit. The staff are knowledgeable and always provide good advice without pressuring me to make a purchase. I have recommended this store to others who are serious about their coffee and coffee equipment and they have all been more than satisfied with their experience. This is definitely the place to go if you are looking for quality coffee equipment and top-notch service. Well done guys!
