But, if you’re looking for café-quality espresso at home, that you handcraft yourself, the PRO 2 will serve you for a lifetime. The Flair Classic is the original Flair Espresso Maker that turned the craft coffee industry on its head in 2016. We offer a number of additional options to enhance your brewing experience, including a magnetic portafilter funnel and milk frothing options from our friends at Nanofoamer. Flair 58 is a fully-manual, professional grade, lever espresso press that is focused on maximizing the workflow and the espresso from at-home extractions. Whenever we've been to Ikea I usually remember a really important task I have to do, to get me out of the house while my wife puts the stuff together ;-), I'm useless at stuff like that.

Maintaining all the performance of the original PRO, the PRO 2 is perfect for those looking for cafe-quality espresso, all from a portable, manual, lever machine. Overall, the fit and finish of the Signature model is very impressive (except for the minor scuffing on the handle from the spare piston / grouphead). It started sliding out after a few months, and now I have to be aware of it, or I could lose this vital part — without it, you can’t operate the lever.With the Flair, I have to remove the piston manually, separate the brew head from the chamber, and then try to knock it out – and a few times when doing this I couldn't get the puck to knock out, I had to resort to using a spoon – it's not a big deal, but I think Rok is just a bit easier to clean up after each shot. Including everything in the base model Flair 58, the Flair 58+ shines with walnut accents on the portafilter, t-grip and palm tamper.

We hope you brew delicious espresso every single day with your Flair Signature manual espresso maker. The main gasket on the piston has, on at least five occasions, come out of it’s holding channel, causing minor explosive results. You then remove the outer beefy collar from the boiling water, and carefully slide the grinds chamber into the bottom of it.The promise of the Flair Espresso Maker, from their Kickstarter Campaign is “you craft your espresso the old-fashioned way, making exactly what you want. It promotes sharing, brings people together, offers consideration, it is a vector of human and social development.
