I’m extremely happy with my Profitec Pro 600, but after getting kids I just value sleep more than the perfect cup in the morning. After work it’s usually kindergarten pick-up, dinner, playtime and then too late for a cuppa.
Also, when having guests over, the constant noise of grinding 5-6 cups interrupts the conversation and takes time.

I’m seriously considering selling my dream machine and getting a capsule and/or the Fellow Aiden so I can at least make really good coffee, but with one grind and a batch for everybody at once.

What have been your experiences on this?
Am I being an idiot and should keep it stored for when I have more time in the future?
Do I just not love the process enough for such a quality machine?

Appreciate honest feedback!

    Fellow sucks, they have no support or parts available. I would never buy from them again.

    Having a moccamaster or other SCA approved drip maker for crowds does seem reasonable. Whether you use the espresso machine “enough” to keep it around is of course up to you.
