This machine has been a joy to own and use. Majesty Coffee was great to work with and I would definitely continue to buy from them.
Yes, $3,000 is a lot of money. However, when you decide to enter this high level espresso machine category (DB, PID, flow control, excellent steam power, etc.), you will quickly find that the Lelit Bianca V3 is a bargain.
Moving up from a Gaggia Classic, I was concerned that I was over-buying and paying for a lot of features I would never use. Wrong! Initially, I left everything at factory settings and did not touch the flow control. A few weeks and tons of perfect shots later, I'm experimenting with shot profiles, Turbo shots... you name it.
I'm getting great shots and only wish I had saved the money from the earlier machines and gone straight to the Bianca. It's that good.
Downsides: None that I can see.
You will love this machine.
A bit complicated but otherwise Very good machine. Tony was very helpful wirh instructions and helping me get started
Can not get it to grind at the finest setting, it starts and stops never finishing your programmed grind settings! Anything above this setting the grinder works fine. I have been using my sette 270 wi since November 2016.
Hi Allan,
Sounds like the grinder has been working well for almost 8 years now. Sorry you're disappointed, it sounds like it may need to be deep cleaned. If that doesn't work, you can contact support@baratza.com with your serial # I'm sure they can advise on if there's anything that can be done or if it's time for a new grinder.
