Flair Pro 2 | 6 months review | Worth it?
@FlairEspresso Pro 2, I first was dubitative when I unboxed this manual espresso maker. I've since been using it for the past 6 months and wanted to give my general thoughts.
If you are in the process of buying your first manual espresso maker or looking to upgrade it. I hope this video can help you.
Enjoying drinking Flat Whites, this manual espresso maker doesn't come with a steam wand. I would be very keen to hear which alternative do you use to steam your milk?

➡️ Coffee retention, Grind retention and Zero retention are phrases you're bound to hear a lot when looking at coffee grinders.

Bonjour Francois , j’ai tout fait mais il,y avait un petit feutre qui était brisé, je ne l’ai pas réinséré est-ce que cela peut être dommageable, quand je regarde votre vidéo je n’en vois pas. Merci de votre aide.
Merci beaucoup, très bien expliqué!
Thank you for posting this. I have been looking for the easiest grinder to deep clean ever since i removed the bottom burr to my capresso and found old stale powder!
Do I detect a slight Estuary English accent there? 🤔😄
Looks nice. Would you not steam the milk first before you press the coffee brew? Then it is served hotter? Thanks
What about the felt washer? I almost tear it apart. What can be used in its place?
5:13 - NO, NO, NO, NO!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS VIDEO SHOULD BE BANNED -----DO NOT USE A VACUUM!!!!!!!!! - There is a felt-washer and a small/thin aluminium washer underneath the lower impeller that will easily get sucked in and deform which is impossible to fix ("The French Review" guy does not mention this, why??) Also, Sage/Breville will not sell you these as replacement parts and you might as well just put the machine in the bin! Without these washers coffee ingress will accumulate inside the machine where open electric circuits create fire risk since coffee dust is combustible. Furthermore, coffee ingress could access internal gears and cause build up in mechanical pressure and result in sharp metal debris become airborne (although second scenarios is less likely due to lower rpm)
have to agree that portafilter holder is just bad. i recommend using dosing cup to help with mess.also have noticed that sometimes grinder holds bit of grounds and spits it out and messes up your dosing. otherwise has been very good coffee you can pull out of it
Elle est sous-estimée, parce que le mode d'emploi est inexistant, ou peu clair. Cela fait deux semaines que j'ai cette machine, et malgré les centaines de vidéo regardées, je n'ai pas réussi à résoudre ce pb : quelquefois elle me fait un café à 6 de pression, d'autres fois à 10, et je ne comprends toujours pas d'où vient mon erreur (probable). Mon Nespresso est plus simple. C'est pire qu'un nouvel ordinateur It is underestimated, because the instructions for use are non-existent or unclear 👎. I've had this machine for two weeks, and despite watching hundreds of videos, I haven't been able to access this problem : sometimes the machine makes me a coffee at 6 bars pressure, other times at 10 bars, and I still don't understand where my (probable) mistake comes from. My Nespresso is simpler 🤣. It's worse than a new computer
NanoFoamer Lithium is the best for frothing milk
Where is your felt washer?
I brew in an insulated mug and pour it into the Aeropress and press it out, 2-minute brew time, works great
You failed to try the Prismo using a paper filter. The paper filter will remove the acidity that you don't like.
Thank you for this. I am very proud of managing to clean my machine, although I had to buy a socket wrench first😂
Great review. Does the weighing scales come with it or where did you buy that?
Sorry, but omitting to mention the felt-washer and the extra washer at the bottom makes this video unusable. Following your video caused me to ruin the felt-washer as i thought it was not supposed to be there. I will recommend following another video instead.
The grinder spins when removing the nut
The Prismo can't make an espresso. I have one and I have tried but it can't. I keep it with my espresso to go.
is there an auto power-off function in this machine?
Le câble est très court aussi
First, use the product the proper way, (filter was wrong), before you find fault. Secondly, the Fellow fits tightly because there's more pressure because of the valve. "It doesn't fit perfectly? It has more to clean?" What about any of the "mess" from any otjer method of making coffee? You lost your credibility with me.
This guy speaks with an accent inspired by at least a dozen different versions of English.
Yes indeed. As well as both ‘cosmopolitan and a touch of cockney English from ‘down south’ I’m sure I detect a South African twang as well.
Filter was attached wrong side up.. you should put the filter logo facing up, so you can see the logo when filter is in its basket or when you look though Aeropress cylinder.
Excellent, clear instructions with very good video. You are a good teacher, my Breville says thank you friend.
Another washer below the impeller and then a fabric ring below that. Remove them before vacuuming. I like to clean out the chute from the grinding chamber that goes down to the portafilter holder/grinds container as well. This is where alot of plugging up can occur.
What do you think of the La Pavoni Kube Mill compared to either the Sage Smart Grinder Pro or the Eureka you mention in the video?
I don't know why people take issue with the hopper and lid. It's very good quality plastic and doesn't sound cheap and flimsy when you handle it. I got the smoked black version ("Fume" they call it at Eureka) and it's beautiful, and gives the grinder an interesting all black silhouette. These days you can also buy an optional metal or wood lid for the hopper from Eureka if you prefer. They also offer the "cleaning kit" which is essentially a round hopper with a black bellows that gives a different look and blows out coffee retention. I honestly wonder what the people who don't like this kind of quality plastic would prefer. Glass? Glass breaks. I also never bother to tighten the screw after I insert the hopper after monthly cleaning and it's a snug fit and doesn't wobble or sound cheap and hollow.
Is the coffee press you used included? Why do you not use the one attached to the machine? Also are you aware the sound cuts out during your video?
Hi thanks for the video. But isn't there felt ring at the bottom of grinder? Mine has one but yours don't. Wondering if I could remove it
Its fun to see how people lived before you could buy bellows for this grinder.
Pls turn off thr machine next time b4 u do a deep clean, if u still love your fingers
HOLY OVEREXTRACTED ESPRESSO BATMAN!
Sehr Gute Anleitung
Honestly worthless review. Why would you think that a metal filter is similar to a paper filter? Did you try different grinds? It is possible that the paper filter removes some volatile organics. A little more work please? For me, I will use my espresso machine. When traveling, I will figure the grind needed to make a proper extraction and take this with me. Not messing with paper means I will never be without coffee, even in difficult situations. There are environmental issues as well, more paper waste, etc. But as usual, to each his own!
I opted for the Niche Zero for the simplicity of daily use and maintenance as well as the quietness and lower pitch while grinding. This is what I was benchmarking while shopping though and my friend just bought a Breville SGP so I'm looking up info for him as he has NO experience and doesn't live near enough for me to give him lessons 😂
You say in this video to undo the nut you must go anti clockwise. By the sound of the ratchet when you were undoing it and also the looks when you were doing it by hand you was going clockwise. Please correct me if I`m wrong.
is it ok to use a tootpick to remove the ground coffee in the bottom Bur? i notice after i did this, the grinder is not producing the same amount of cofee for the same setting
I have a trick for you, don’t fill the hob with coffee, instead get your dose from a dose cup, adjust the grinding time +5seconds to whatever grams you are putting in, yes make it run more than it’s supposed to, then weight your coffee output and you will find exactly the same amount of grams in, almost 0-1% retention. Have been doing that for the last 2 years.
After a week, the insides would be full. 20 grams in and 20 grams out seems obvious. In my mind this says nothing about retention. The question i have is; how many of those 20 grams are fresh? How many of those are retained but replenished by older coffee? Or is this a stupid question?
Doing things by half measures typical french
I completely agree !
Grease the Bur and machine area where the coffee is collecting. Use a two part epoxy and bed that area to fill voids. Remove Bur after epoxy sets up. Clean grease and enjoy absolutely 0 retention.
To get the impeller out - just turn the grinder upside down and it will slide out. None of this knife mastery stuff.
$200 is not cheap! I have used my old Cuisinart mill for over 10 years and it was $48. If I didn't have a problem with that mill this Breville smart grinder would only disappoint a coffee snob!
Very well informative, Thank you!
Flatwhitenwith latte art? Lol
Video sound dissappears when making the coffee.
Yes I have the same problem!
I mean honestly, if you find the Prismo filter and attachment 'hard' to put on, you're either trying to sabotage the product in your review or you've got motor issues. With that, I think the default paper filter makes better coffee than the Prismo, but no problems with the Prismo attachment.
Great walkthrough! Very helpful. Thank you so much!
Was there another washer below the fan above the fabric washer thing ?
Yes. Another washer below the impeller and the a fabric ring below that. Remove them before vacuuming.
@@JPHolbrook that makes sense. How could I order those parts I think I vacuumed that a while ago that’s why my grinder isn’t working well.
@@DannyNagymusic I tried to send you the links but no go with the yt algo. The shop is called EReplacementparts. Look for SP0001577 for the washer and SP0001575 for the felt ring. I also changed out the impeller on my grinder. It was worn down. Hmmmm Breville where did that plastic go???? Yummy. There's a guy 3d printing impellers that do a better job of clearing the grinds down the chute. I'll get that when I need another replacement.
@@DannyNagymusic sent you an email with the info.
