OnlyImprovement9796 1.0I had a Barista Express for 8 years. Then I got an ECM Technika 6. On every level the new machine is better and worth the money.
Rolle187 1.0If you want to upgrade, don't go for the Micra. Profitec Move or Ride, or even ECM Technica vi are better value and have increased heat up times. I like the Micra, but it's way too expensive and the coffee defining taste is the grinder, not the machine.
I personally am not a big fan of Brevil. If you want flow control, I would suggest the drive or Technica vi as they have E61 where you can install easily a flow control. Or something completely different if you don't want a E61, Arkel Coast. Again the Mini is a wonderful machine, but too expensive for minor improvements. If I would have 5000€ laying around 😁 my dream machine would be Maro Model 1. This is what I think will be the future of espresso machines, but at this point just too expensive for me. Not that it is not worth it imo.
Norstar64 0.3My ECM technika (made in Germany) has been going strong for over 15 years The only thing I replaced is a worn steam valve.
Taylsch 0.0ECM, La Marzocco, Profitec, Bezzera, Rocket, Faema and basically every E61 group head machine.
