  • This morning, we are using the semiautomatic espresso machine with a built-in grinder from SMEG singapore. The model of this machine is EGF03.
    Dual thermal block espresso machine, which allows you to extract your espresso and texture your milk at the same time.
    Ability to use the steam wand as a hot water wand and 2 steps steaming power for beginner as well as more advance user.
    15 grind settings on the built-in grinder which is more than sufficient to get good quality espresso as long as the coffee beans used is not stale.
    A very handsome looking machine that couples with great grinder and ability to make good espresso and milk texturing.

    Hi CY, Just discover your channel find it very helpful ! I'm currently looking into a barsetto BAE02s and this smeg, as I see you did test both of them, and I'm wondering which one would you recommend between the EFG03 and the BAE02? Thanks in advance!

    • @CaffeMartellaSingapore
      @CaffeMartellaSingapore  3 месяца назад +1

      I will recommend the BAE02 as it can really do both milk frothing and brewing coffee at the same time.

      much appreciated! Currently in China you'd happy to see the changes they've done with the new BAE02S, Im guessing they've improved the grinder issue you mentioned about

    Hi! I'm a french viewer, I would like to ask you some questions about the smeg egf03cr.
    The two fisrt one are about the grinder :
    - can we program the grinding time for the buttons "grinding 1 espresso" and "grinding double espresso"?
    - can we use the grinder in manual mode?
    Last question is about the buttons "serving 1 espresso" and "serving double espresso" :
    - can we program the time within the coffe is done (the time within the water flows)?
    I think the answers are all yes but I'm not sure about it. Thanks a lot, I really like the way you describe all the machines, I'm learning a lot with yours videos!😊

      Traduit en anglais par ma. Compagne 😅 car je suis nul en anglais et je voulais être le plus précis avec vous.
      Et j'hésite avec une Barista pro ou une breville barista Max +
      Mais elles semblent moins fiables et plus imposantes
      J'ai les connaissances Barista Sca 1 juste forme par MOKXA en France.
      Merci beaucoup par avance et j'ai toutes tes vidéo à voir qui sont très bien faites Geoffrey

    Are you supposed to purge the machine inbetween uses… my machine recently stopped providing a good pressure for espresso. I cannot figure out why.

      @@CaffeMartellaSingaporeI go between a few brands of beans all medium roast… do you think that’s could be the reason? I also want to know if you should be back-flushing the machine like people with Brevilles do? If that is not the case, any other ideas of why it randomly quit pressurizing.

    Hi there. That is a great video review you did. I know you mentioned that the SMEG EGF03 is a Dual thermal block espresso machine, but does it allow you to extract your espresso and texture your milk at the same time? Have you tried to do this with the machine? Max.

    • @CaffeMartellaSingapore
      @CaffeMartellaSingapore  3 месяца назад

      Hi I have made a mistake. It's a dual thermal block but only has one pump. This means that you can immediately steam milk.after pulling espresso shots but you can't do it at the same time. I made a video sometime after this one to clarify that and the mistake that I made in this video.

    Thank you very much for your review.
    It convinced me to buy this coffee machine.
    I am very satisfied with the quality and operation of the coffee machine with one exception.
    When frothing milk (regardless of the selected mode - small or large steam), after 2 minutes the pump operation is cut off and the single and double espresso lights start flashing.
    Have you also observed this behaviour in the coffee machine?
    Is this a defect or an intentional action by the manufacturer?
    Can this "feature" be turned off?
    best regards
    Adam

      I am glad that my review has some impact. I will find out more about the issues you have with the SMEG espresso machine!

    What setting to you recommend for the coffee beans on this smeg? I think it’s a scale from 1-15?

    • @CaffeMartellaSingapore
      @CaffeMartellaSingapore  7 месяцев назад +1

      It really depends on freshness of beans and roast level. Assuming it's fresh (2 weeks after roast date and medium roast) I will grind from 0 to 8.

    I have this one but the espresso is not suitable temperature. (I've changed the temperature to high but it's not good yet) Did you faced any problem with temperature of espresso too with smeg?
