Rancilio Silvia E V6 Home Espresso Machine - Inox / Stainless Steel

After a lot of research I decided to get the Silvia for my espresso needs. I have never had an espresso machine before so I am as much as a beginner as they come :)

Miss Silvia was packaged very nicely and very secure. The team at Clumsy Goat were so great too! Replied to my email within a few minutes and were very helpful and friendly. The machine arrived very quickly too.

I am using the Baratza Encore ESP Pro to grind the coffee and I am able to pull really good espressos. Takes a bit of playing around and I obviously don't have the pallet necessary to distinguish very subtle changes in the shots I am pulling but I am very satisfied with the taste, not bitter not sour, very pleasant to drink straight.

I am not a milky coffee person but I have made a few attempt at making a latte. The steam pressure is crazy and I do struggle with putting the milk jug in and out, the space under the wand is a bit tight for me so I will look at getting a knock drawer to put under the machine to elevate it a bit. But with all that I think I made a successful milky coffee the third time I tried it haha.

I will look at a PID in the future, but for now the machine came with everything you need to pull a shot. The portafiller and tamper seem to be really good quality, might upgrade to a naked portafiller in the future as well . The machine itself is of course very qualitative and with proper care it should last for a very long time.

I am very happy with it and I look forward to using it every single day. I do recommend it to anyone looking to get an espresso machine but they're not looking at a plug and play type of experience. If you're willing to learn and increase your knowledge and experience with different coffees and grind size etc this is a good, realiable machine.

Very happy with my purchase - a great price and quick delivery. I will be buying from Clumsy Goat again.

Nice deal and balanced weight.

Good coffee machine.

Since using the canister coffee beans seem to remain fresh for a lot longer than
when left in the original packaging .

La Marzocco Pico Premium Home Espresso Coffee Grinder

I love this coffee - it’s very hard to find a decaf that you can’t tell is decaf, but this is the one!

The new burrs were easy to fit and have sped up the grinding. Very quick delivery from Clumsy Goat Coffee.

This little gadget is one above budget models, delivery and tax adds to it.
I can't speak to durability because not had it that long, but feels sturdy compared to many and gives a whizz!

These beans intrigued me with the 'Super Crema' adjective and so I ordered a 250 g pack to try and also offered it to a few colleagues for comment. The instant they tasted it they were over the lunar surface in a matter of seconds with positive vibes about this bean. I wasn't quite so sure as I was still making mine but what a taste - well rounded and smooth and very alive in the mouth, an absolute all rounder for many coffee making methods and well worth a try. Well priced as well.

Great coffee straight out of the grinder 👍

After months of research into single dose coffee grinders and a poor experience with a DF grinder which I sent back, I took a leap of faith and it most definately paid off.

I was originally looking at the zero 55 as was on special offer, however had read lots of reviews about the the bigger dial making small adjustments much easier and with the upgraded 65mm burrs, plus the catch cup cover to prevent mess, it just met all my needs including looking great and being within my budget.

I’ve been using this for a couple of months now and find dialling in simple along with getting consistent shots with excellent flavour.
Finding the zero point was easy enough and there are plenty of videos online to support with this.

A big bonus I've found is getting zero static or mess and no cloggging of the chute at this point. I find the bellows do an excellent job at clearing the grinds.
I would 100% recommend this grinder.

Fast delivery, virtually next day. Very well packed. Helpful staff answering my questions! Than you, Clumsy Goat!

This tamper fits the Gaggia Classic Evo 2013 basket tightly. It has noticeably increased the draw time and consequently gives s richer flavour. The resulting puck is drier. Impressive.

Beautiful flat white tumbler that just feels right.
Love these, they look so good and I’ll definitely be purchasing more.
