Product is good quality but item needs a more detailed description for compatibility. My machine was not compatible with this porta filter & returning charges are around 20% so i decided to get a custom part made to make it compatible
I purchased the combo of H10A and G5 grinder. Had some initial hiccups in setting them up, but using fresh beans and with proper tamping, I could extract a mean cup of espresso.
The opportunity to experiment with different settings is absolutely amazing. Further, when I had issues, Shashwat from Fix Coffee, went out of his way to help me.
The entire kit is complete and is supremely useful. I am yet to use the milk foamer, but I am happy with the shots I'm pulling.
Some of my other observations:
1. The needle doesn't stabilize in the H10. It shakes vigorously. But does it impact the shots quality? Not sure
2. In my machine, the flow rate is fast. I reduced the pre-infusion time to deal with it.
3. The G5 grinder has grain retention. Spray with some water before grinding to reduce it.
But overall, I am happy with my combo.
i stumbled upon fix coffee when i was trying to find a coffee grinder. I got exactly what i was looking for at fix coffee. not just that but the thrill was the ease of ordering and delivery that i experienced with fix coffee. IN no time i placed some other orders for other coffee accessories and they were fulfilled totally to my satisfaction. This is certainly my go to place for everything coffee.
When I was shopping for an espresso machine, I narrowed my choices down to two models: the Budan Coffee Machine from Something’s Brewing and the H10A from Hibrew. Ultimately, I chose the H10A, and after using it for a month, I’m confident I made the right decision. It offers excellent features like pre-infusion and temperature customization, which allow me to tailor my coffee exactly to my taste. However, there is one drawback: the drip tray. It’s too small and poorly designed, often causing water to seep to the bottom of the machine. I hope the manufacturer addresses this issue in future models.
Grinders there are many, but finding a well-priced one that can churn out shot after shot - finely tuned so that you get a 26 second extraction on a double-shot - well, your hunt stops here.
Very compact and will serve most individuals, unless you are running a cafe or almost always entertaining a big group of friends/family.
Extremely noise friendly (my cats don't mind it at all!) and dare I say sexy looking!
A great companion to my 10A HiBrew machine and extremely well built. Everything has a robust, built-to-last premium feel to it.
A great buy!
