Directions are extensive but not as difficult to set up as it might seem. Coffee choices are great and milk container works well. Love, love the taste of the coffee drinks.
This is our second Nuova Simonelli Oscar. The first one lasted 12 years. We love our new Oscar. No problem steaming the milk and the shots are very nice. Hoping this one lasts like our first one. Awesome machine!!
The machine works great. Pulls beautiful shots of espresso. I’m still breaking her in. The porta filters are a little stiff and difficult to deal with so I’m using the ones from my old Astoria. The older ones aren’t as drippy as the newer ones.
We purchased to add a mobile coffee cart to our venue services and so far this machine has been perfect. The service set up was phenomenal and it has worked well for us. We are excited to see how it adds to our services.
We upgraded to the Mignon Libra from a Sette 270Wi. I am totally sold on weight integration to simplify our home espresso work flow. The Mignon Libra is worlds quieter that the Barratza machine, which is a HUGE benefit. In addition, the portafilter holder is far better. With the supplied grounds funnel the Libra holds the portafilter steady and does not spew stray ground coffee over the counter. Grind adjustability and stability is excellent. We hope to be using the grinder a very long time.
