Takes espresso making to the next level at a fraction of the cost.
Positive Product Points
The Venus produces consistently good espresso and foam. It is so very good to the point of making me wonder what the more expensive machines do compared to the Venus.
Negative Product Points
For best results, I have found turning the machine on about 7-10 minutes prior to drawing and foaming raises the water tempature to the level necessary for brewing.
