Introduction

This video reviews the Superkop Espresso Maker, a manual espresso machine promising perfect espresso without electricity or pumps. The reviewer, Angelo, unboxes the machine, examines its components, tests its espresso-making capabilities, and ultimately assesses its pros and cons.

Key Takeaways

• Unboxing and First Impressions: The Superkop Espresso Maker arrives in several parts, primarily featuring a sturdy wooden base, a steel lever, and a 58mm portafilter. Its design is considered aesthetically pleasing.
• Functionality: The machine uses a lever system with a notched mechanism, unlike a traditional lever machine offering continuous pressure control. Pressure is released when the lever is raised, potentially affecting extraction consistency.
• Espresso Test: Angelo tests the machine, noting the ease of use despite needing manual preheating. The resulting espresso is deemed good, with good body, sweetness, and temperature, even without preheating the cups.
• Pros & Cons: Pros include the machine's attractive design, ease of use once a routine is established, and the quality of the resulting espresso. Cons include the plastic component (despite being BPA-free), the risk of misaligning the lever, the need for manual preheating, and the high cost (€750).
• Overall Conclusion: Despite the high cost, Angelo expresses overall satisfaction with the Superkop Espresso Maker, highlighting the quality of the espresso produced.
