The Gallatin R HX is quite the machine, especially considering the quality, features, and performance vs. its price. This thing definitely punches up, knocking out high-priced machines in its class or higher.
The PID ensures more precise temperature control (no major fluctuations), and the rotary pump is much quieter than I was expecting. The shot timer is, of course, an added bonus (since you don't need to mess with a timer on a scale), but you do need to account for any pre-infusion time in the overall shot time it seems, which is fine as long as you are aware of that.
Heat-up time is definitely less than 30 minutes, maybe more like 15-20 minutes or possibly even less at times. I have mine connected to a smart outlet and a SwitchBot to automate the start-up process in the morning; there is an Eco mode that basically puts the machine into a low-power state if you are so inclined.
The machine is just impressive to look at also. The walnut accents are classy, and they feel smooth and classy, too. The steam/hot water joysticks can be used in any direction, and you can either give gentle pressure on the stick, or toggle it completely to hold the position open. The steam wand works very well; milk frothing is as expected, and you can brew & steam at the same time if needed.
I have not yet started to experiment with the flow-control valve, but it, too, has a lovely walnut handle. With the handle turned all the way to the right, you are at full flow, and then from there it decreases the flow as you turn to the left. I will need to explore this function more as time allows!
Overall, this is a wonderful, beautiful machine, especially at this price-point, and I don't think anyone would be disappointed with all of these features and the build-quality for its price. Well done, Turin & EO!
I loved great experience for beginners like me.
Love my Turin Legato v2 and Espresso Outlet has the absolute best people working there. Great customer service also.
Our machine arrived in a timely manner and was in excellent condition. The machine itself is great for the price point. Very hands on. We look forward to the many espressos in our future!
I am very impressed by both the speed of my delivery (I'm local, and received my machine about 2 hours after submitting it). The machine itself has been a nice upgrade to the Breville infuser I was using previously, and seems well built and capable. It's very nice having the OPV adjustment, and having grouphead heating without having to run blank shots has been quite nice. I'm looking forward to playing around with temperature on the PID for lighter roasts
This machine is incredible. It has it all. The aesthetics, performance, quality parts, and ability to create/share custom profiles. I upgraded from a rocket Giotto and wasnt expecting much of a difference in terms of espresso quality but my first shot from the data s blew me away. The app is pretty easy to use and haven’t run into any issues. Overall I highly recommend this machine, you will not be disappointed.
Grinds are consistent and make delicious espresso when paired with my Cafelat Robot espresso maker. I was worried about the noise from some of the online video reviews. But I find it is actually pretty quiet. I did place it on the two stacked mouse pads that my previous grinder was on, so maybe this is helping.
The other issue these grinders were accused of is being messy-- with fines going all over the place. I don't find that to be true at all. They have really solved that problem with the Gen 2 upgrades. It is also nice to know I can upgrade the burrs in several years if I decide to.
I am super happy with the quality of this grinder and the coffee I can make with it.
Easy to use, makes a great espresso on the go!
Great featured machine, which allows the coffee nerd within me experiment to find the perfect shot. I was suprised to find that it also can approximate a poured over brew with the proper curve profile. The app for the machine is also well done. The community contacts found there allow me to draw on others expertise.
I wanted to take the time to use the roaster at least a dozen times before giving my review.
I enjoy using the Dual System and find myself using the Kaleido tablet more than Artisan. Both are good platforms and I like having the option to choose.
I have produced delicious coffee that my customers and family enjoy!
Setting up the roaster was easy! I did three season roasts before doing any production.
Cleaning the roaster after 4-6 roast is quick and easy.
There are a lot of roasters on the market and I took my time looking over several brands. I kept coming back to the M10.
It took me a few roasts to understand how the roaster responds to the changes I made during roasts. Easy to use!
By the way customer service is great!
