โ˜• - The hot beverage that powers the world!

Coffee gadgets - It's always great to learn about new gadgets. Please share your favorite hardware or full setups. It might inspire newcomers to experiment!

Local businesses - Please promote your local businesses. If you are not the owner of the business you are promoting, kindly ask the owner if it's okay. It would be great if the business has a physical store to include an exterior or interior shot.

Like many others over the past few years, I was following the release of the Profitec Go, expecting to see an increasing user base commenting on such things as modding etc. It doesn't seem to have anything like the fan base of the Gaggia Classic, and I don't see many comments on it at all these days. What happened? Is it not worth the extra cost over the Gaggia? Are users simply content and quiet, or have there been some negative aspects of it which have counted against it? If you have had one for a year or so, let me know the good and bad.

In the UK it's probably just over 1.5 times the price, but you get a brass boiler instead of aluminium, the boiler is a bit bigger, you get a PID for temp stability, an easily adjustable over-pressure valve, a visible pressure guage, precision engineering (ECM I think) plus whatever else is good about it.
