I’ve had my Turin Legato V2 for two weeks now, and I’m genuinely impressed. The all matte black finish gives the machine a clean, modern look — and paired with my matte black Astra bottomless portafilter and accessories from MHW-3BOMBER, the overall aesthetic is just beautiful.
One of my favorite modifications was replacing the stock steam knob with a 1-inch black aluminum alloy billet cap, paired with a custom 3D printed adapter. It gives the machine a more premium, metallic feel, and makes steaming milk more satisfying both visually and tactilely.
Performance-wise, this is a massive upgrade from my previous HiBREW 20-bar espresso machine, which I had for almost a year. That unit suffered overheating issues and had to be repaired twice due to burned internal wiring. The Legato V2, on the other hand, has been stable, consistent, and feels like a true prosumer-level machine — especially with the PID control and manual pre-infusion.
Highly recommend for anyone looking to take their espresso workflow to the next level — both in performance and in build quality.
I have been using the Trek Brew for about a month now. I thought going from a double boiler at home to this while I'm traveling, there would be a pretty big downfall in espresso quality... in was wrong. The quality of shot I'm pulling from the Trek Brew is simply put, fantastic.
The grinder is nice, everything works well, I even added the SSP burrs. Delivery took 4 days from order placement which was no time at all!
Bought for a gift. They have not been given it yet.
This grinder made it so much easier to dial in for my espresso shots! The only weird thing about it is I feel like when I touch it there is some bizarre electrical “force” I can feel.
