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!
I both get your point, and agree with most of it.
The core issue is that I don’t use it enough, find it impractical for the use cases I currently have, and don’t have the room to buy another machine to solve that issue.
Unless I go for a small capsule machine like Nespresso and stow it away between uses.
My main reason for pulling the financial argument was simply that it will keep losing value, and if I never find the joy again, it’d be better cutting my losses now.
I am leaning more and more towards just keeping it and accepting that life has its phases and stop feeling guilty about it often gathering dust.
