Reviews

Finally found one!

"I spent 2 years looking for one in the US. I really wanted this special edition color scheme for a present to my wife. I’m so glad I was able to get this in time for Christmas."

— Eric E. (5/5)

Skeptical at first, but. . .

"We purchased a used micro casa. The 20 year old machine needed some tlc, so i ran 50/50 white vinegar and water through it several times (you do this by filling the machine and bring it up to temp, let it do its thing for about 10 mins, repeat until clean). The boiler and element came out exceptionally clean. Next i replaced the pstat due to having never been changed and not working properly (if your machine goes past the "green" on the gauge and the indicator light wont turn off, this is likely the fix you need to do). Cleaning and new pstat breathed new life into this machine, and i am thoroughly impressed with how well this machine performs. I roast my own coffee, and the shots i pull from this machine exhibit every taste and nuance as expected. Great machine!"

Very good

"Shipping was slow, but the product was great."

Great espresso machine. Our 2nd

"Great espresso machine. Our 2nd one. BUT there is no red guage on the water meter and we cannot tell the water level. Very disappointing!"

— Arthur A. (4/5)

Amazing, worth every penny.

Elektra lever VS La Pavoni.

"Really, a nice machine. From what I have experienced so far, it is a cut above La Pavoni. They are the same price, but Elektra has a) slightly better quality; b) spring load "seems" to add a creamier quality to the shot; c) base is designed to warm shot cups. Didn't know that one!!!!"

Elektra S1 Microcasa a Lever

"This is not a machine but an art. Not only it looks good, it delivers consistent espresso. However, due to its size this is not for high value commercial use. Hand crafted in Italy so it is a bit pricey but you get what you pay for. Highly recommended for espresso lovers."

— Alvin C. (5/5)

Great espresso and value

"We have enjoyed our Microcasa for over 27 years now and while it shows it age, there is no fall off in the results. It does require some discipline in routine and you have a large part in the result, it produces a consistent drop and more steam than anyone can use. If you like to be part of the process, this is your best bet for quality pulls."

— Bob (5/5)

Extraordinary

"This machine is an absolute work of art, and makes the most incredible lattes—far, far superior to the several Jura machines we’ve owned in the past. We had some questions before we bit the bullet and the gentleman who answered the phone at 1st In Coffee was very knowledgeable and helpful, and the machine arrived less than 24 hours after we placed our order! We couldn’t be happier and would highly recommend this espresso machine to anyone contemplating purchasing it."

— Carra S. (5/5)

Well shipped, well made and great Espresso.

"The shipping box looked like it been through some stuff so I was a bit worried. Upon opening, I realized how well packed this machine was and I relaxed a bit. Function and finish was superb. I’ll be working my technique, grind and top bean choice for a long time but it isnt hard to get a great cup. There are so many articles on the web and the machine makes it pretty easy to extract a fine espresso as long as you put in the effort with proper grinder and good beans. I would definitely recommend one of these if looking for a lever machine, however I do not have any experience with others. Thanks to 1st in coffee and Elektra for the good packing job and speedy delivery of a great product."
