First Impressions with Meticulous Espresso | Coffee with April #263

This week, we’re bringing you a brief summary of our first impressions of an innovative single group espresso machine; Meticulous Espresso.

Meticulous is an unreleased espresso machine initially pitched on the Kickstarter platform, and currently still live on Indiegogo. It is expected to begin shipping to the initial backers later this year or early next year. We were lucky enough to meet with Matthew from Meticulous in our new roastery space here in Denmark to take a quick look at the current prototype.

We're always interested in hearing what topics you're most curious to hear us discuss, and Patreon is a great way of reaching out to us if you would like to make a request.

We welcome your thoughts and feelings on the topics raised in this week's video, as well as other ideas you would like to see us discuss in the future. We really appreciate your feedback and support.

Hey Patrik it's good to hear your thoughts on this machine. The Meticulous is definitely super exciting and we've had a lot of fun testing and reviewing it. The integrated scales really streamlines the workflow, especially the ability to stop by weight.

LOOOVE THIS
From what I know and have seen, you will for sure be able to use the phone and the app will even let you watch the flow via camera with an overlay of the graphs. :D

I’m so excited to receive mine. Pairing with an X54 for home espresso.

Can't wait for your review next year hopefully! Where's the pink cup from in the video please?

Patrick! Any updates on April grinder?

Looks like a cool machine. The main question is - can they fulfil the Kickstarter campaign and deliver 3000 machines by December 2023?

Don't forget the follow up video about frozen coffee :D

Urban legend, but…NASA spent $millions on a pen that could write upside down in zero gravity. The Russians use a pencil. I feel the same way about the Meticulous. An expensive, fiddly solution to a problem that doesn’t exist. I’ll take my La Pavoni every day of the week and actually enjoy the actual craft of actually pulling a good shot, plus I don’t need to survey a course at MIT to make that happen.
