this seems to be a budget version of the kafmasino one, which has a lot of smart features in the machine. potentially able to add a gagguino kit onto it to gain back some of those features

Hi, Did you Use the regular "Turin's" basket or precision Basket (Pesado, IMS, etc)?

[@peterlee6648]

Informative video, Hoon. Are you using the 22g basket that came with the Normcore bottomless portafilter? I noticed that you are using 18g. Thanks.

[@alaskavaper2490]

Best feature over Breville Express or Pro is the e61 group head, imo. And of course the price. Hoon,what material is the boiler made of?

[@chikunman133]

stainless steel

[@endoalley680]

I wonder if you could retrofit a better OPV to lower, and adjust the brew pressure to 9 bars if you so choose? The brew pressure seems to be the only issue that you don't like.

[@ultraman1017]

you like clear dose cup better than comes with metal one?

[@jecstrike]

So this is the CRM3007L and the pre infusion is still not good. Hope they release a version witht the preinfusion fixed. otherwise this is still a good alternative machine. Its affordable with lots of features.

@HoonsCoffee This has very similar in features and price to the Crossland CC1. Doing a head to head between the Turin and the CC1 would be very interesting.

This machine looks great!

[@CoffeeAndSmoke23]

This reminds me of the lelit

[@pugamusmaximus]

I believe the Breville Pro is still the best budget option. You get so much more and even more aftermarket options. Are parts hard to find?

[@alinaqirizvi1441]

I think the bambino plus with a good grinder like the baratza encore is better than the barista pro

[@johnsummerfield3590]

Does it have an adjustable OPV?

[@loganmontgomery1955]

There’s a screw hidden above the pressure gauge that gives limited control on pressure
