Ordered the Gallian R espresso machine on Sunday and recieved it on Tuesday. Very easy set up and the first cup of espresso in about 35 minutes. Wow! What a nice machine, great espresso and machine worked flausley. Great job guys, keep up the good work.
Great machine with stylish looks. Gives you total control of dialing in your coffee. Looks great on the counter and makes the perfect cup. Excellent for home use and could also stand its ground in light commercial environment. Would love it even more if it had a double boiler.
I’m honestly beyond belief — this is one of the best pieces of gear I’ve ever received. I’ve dreamed of owning a machine like this for years, and it was worth every ounce of the wait.
What makes it stand out? It’s a professional-grade system that somehow hits an incredible budget point without compromising on features. The E61 group head is a timeless classic, and the heat-up time is shockingly fast — especially for a boiler setup.
You’ve got flow control, PID control, and the ability to pull espresso and steam milk simultaneously. It checks every box I’ve been chasing. The build quality is phenomenal, and the pump is whisper-quiet — seriously impressive.
I own a lot of gear, and this machine still managed to blow past my expectations. That says a lot.
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!

from 1119 reviewsWe love this grinder! We were usind another grinder we bought off Amazon - very inexpensive but got the job done.However, it was hard to scoop the grinds out and properly measure. We love the ease and convenience and options to change the grind size per. Highly recommend.
Used df 54 for 2 years with no problems until cleaning it i deformed the plastic declumper putting a brush to far in discharge shoot. It clogged up and was useless. Bought the metal declumper and still clogged up. Then I seen video on youtube about upgrade kit front espresso outlet. I installed upgrade kit and have had no issues even with grinding oily roasted beans. Thx guys for solving my clogging issues. Very satisfied.
Have been very much enjoying the DF64 Gen 2.5! Easy to order and came on time from Espresso Outlet!
Phenomenal machine. Completely blown away with this upgrade (from Breville Barista Pro). I can achieve better than cafe now☕️
Wonderful upgrade! Couldn’t be happier!
I have only had the machine for about 3 weeks now, but I am loving it. I am upgrading from a Bambino so that is all I can compare it to. The build quality seems extremely good. Everything feels very solid. The controls are easy to use and work smoothly. This machine is complete overkill for my needs, but it really is a joy to use if you like the "mechanical" process of making espresso. My biggest hesitation with the machine is parts support in the future, but I will deal with when it arises. If espresso outlet can offer parts support well into the future I can so so reason to spend more money for the Italian made brands.
I started having problems with my DF54 getting plugged up, and being really staticy. This kit took care of both issues. Easy to install, and so far so good!!! Thank you!!
So far, I love it. Well worth the price. I'll be buying more products from Espresso Outlet.
I LOVE MY MACHINEEEEEEEEEEEEE and i love espresso outlet <3
This grinder is everything everyone says it is. Great price for a great grinder.
Aside from pairing perfectly with Wendougee, this is one tough little scale. None of the constant h2o errors you get with Acaia Lunar if there is a drop of moisture anywhere in the kitchen, and you can no longer shut it or change functions. i have spilled boiling water on it (accidentally) and it kept on ticking like the energizer bunny. A no brainer.
So far the grinder is performing perfectly! I love it!
Amazing business, outstanding customer service!!
