    I’ve had to return 2 DeLonghi TruBrew machines (pure junk) and now considering this one. Thanks for review.

      Return it, it's a scam! The Better Business Beureau gave the Terra Kaffe a "D-" because of all the customer complaints about their product not working and TK's scam artist ways to prolong the trouble shooting to pass the 30 days. After the 30 days they refuse to return their faulty product.
      ⚠️ WARNING⚠️
      If a company delays their product to be sent out after a deadline, there's something wrong with it.
      TK-02 was supposed to be sent out in September, then October, then pushed to December. We know because we pre-ordered it and decided to cancel in December (2023). Now that people are starting to receive their machines, they are finding out too late that this product is garbage and when they try to return it for a full refund, they suggest "solutions" to fix it with videos and sending it to their maintenance team to fix it, they'll send it back with even more issues and offer to send a refurbished (used) one that also has issues. Or they will tell you to pay $250 more for a new one. They'll take enough time doing all of this so that your 30-day window runs out and then you're stuck with this faulty inferior machine. Return it now!!! Don't let them trick you into trying to fix the issue. If they do decide to allow you a refund, it will be a partial refund.

    I am used to traditional drip coffee and I bought this machine after my daughter bought one. I thought this was going to be the best ever machine but I just can't seem to get a strong enough cup of coffee out of it. I have tried several different beans, grinder settings, etc.. any help would be appreciated.😀

    I currently have a Nespresso Vertuo. How would you say this machine compares with that in terms of the flavour and quality of the coffee you get out of it? I like the idea of grinding the beans every single time I make coffee, rather than buying capsules that may have been sitting in a warehouse for who knows how long. I also don't like the waste of the capsules, even though Nespresso claims they recycle them.

    • @Mrxyz553

      Nespresso is nothing like this espresso machine. You use fake coffee in pods. This machine grinds and brews from fresh beans.

      I was thinking the same thing! I love my Nespresso vertuo but the idea of fresh beans intrigues me!

    Is the espresso just coffee with foam on top? Is it weak or strong? Thanks.

    Cool review! Could you increase your f stop on the camera so you aren’t as blurry (since its focusing on the TK-01)? I’d recommend F4-5.6 maybe!

    • @prestonpierce8774
      @prestonpierce8774 Год назад

      Came here to say the same thing. If the coffee machine isn't at the same depth point as you, f5.6 is a minimum depending on focal length!

    I am supposed to get my machine tomorrow, I am so excited to have found your review. I currently have a Nespresso machine which i really like but i know there is better espressos outhere. I would love if you can make more videos with pre recorded settings on the different type of drinks you could do with the machine :)

      Curious if you are happy with your purchase of the TK-01? Our espresso machine just died, so we're looking at options.

    Hi. I enjoyed your review. I have this machine but having problems with frothing milk for a latte or cappuccino. I connect the carafe to the machine, but nothing happens. Any ideas what the problem could be.

      DO NOT get the Spinn. I had a spinn and it constantly had issues, and only after a few weeks of owning it. Was forced to send it back into the manufacturer multiple times to fix the same issues over and over again. Terrible product

    It's great if you use it's basic function , i e. drink espresso only. For everything else it's messy. I just got TK-01 and boy, let me tell you about frothering milk. No matter if the foam knob settings, it gurgles oversaturating the milk with hot steam creating large bubbles that doesn't make drink looking tasty.
    The pre-grinded coffee intake is small and right next to some holes that let coffee powder to get inside the unit, this is just bad design.
    Finally, after the machine goes into standby mode, it goes completely blank. I have to flip the main power switch to bring it back live. Why would I want that? Worse, the switch is in the back of the deep unit, hard to access sometimes.
    Overall for the money paid during black friday sale, it isn't bad. If you drink just espresso or you don't mind cleaning the mess around every time you prep your cappuccino or latte, you should be happy. Otherwise move along and look for a different machine. I am keeping mine as this was a gift for my wife and she doesn't mind putting up with the shortcomings.

    This machine seems far better than any automatic machines. If you lower the temperature on your expresso you get less bitter taste.

    Save your money and buy a reputable brand with a good warranty

  • @AnnaKhr9

    Do not buy. Had mine for a 2 years, I used to be super sensitive to coffee and didn’t use it much for the first year (present from Christmas). I started using it more and then something came apart inside and it stopped working. I didn’t even reach 400 uses and the warranty said they couldn’t help me, their warranty says 1 year or 3000 brews. They kept saying since it’s past 1 year they couldn’t help, even with such little use. Luckily my husband and his brother were able to fix it up themselves and a connection came loose that they found. Next machine will be a Breville because terra Kaffe customer service is awful. They were trying to make me pay for the repairs, I read online that some customers sent their machine in for repairs before and it would come back with more problems…

    This machine is an absolute piece of junk and you cannot trust that you will get a working unit. My friend has one,hasn’t had a problem. I bought it on their recommendation. I’ve had to have three repairs done to it already and I haven’t even had it five months not to mention the warranty is ticking away while I am busy shipping it back-and-forth to these people who can’t even take a phone call and only respond to you via email, it’s really the worst
