I bought the Brim 19 Bar Espresso Maker with Wood Handle for my husband for Christmas. It is a gorgeous machine and makes great espresso when it worked. We made 2 espresso's and attempted to make a 3rd one the next morning but it did not work. All the lights were on, it went through the heat up cycle but would not brew. The pressure didn't even go up on the gauge. Very disappointing.
Trying to get the Brim 19 bar to pull a shot. I am not able to get any pressure. Just wonder if others have this issue,
The machine stopped working after just 12 months. Brim refuses to honor their warranty. There help contact is awful, they treat you unfairly and do not return email requests. Horrible experience with the unit and the company help contact.
I am new to the espresso experience, but I am having a heck of a time figuring this out. I need espresso for dummies. The youtube tutorials do not show everything needed to brew easily. I would love a more in-depth tutorial. I think I will love this once I learn it. Looks great though!
We own a coffee shop and we wanted a small machine as an emergency backup. I used this espresso machine and the microfoam was incredible. I wish it were bigger and I'd use it normally! There is very little downtime between pulling shots and steaming and the machine heats up quickly. I love it.
Little to no pressure. The materials are very cheap. The bottom of my cups scratched the drip tray metal. The buttons did not work every time. I had to turn it off/on.
I returned it! I've had 3 Cusinarts for half the price that pulled a better shot & the "pressure" indicator is a joke. It never got past the first mark. My biggest issue is the Programming which asks you to run your process a certain way & if you deviate, its hard to make it work again. (ie, I like a little more Espresso in the cup than just the 2 Shot Button but it makes it very difficult to get that). Secondly, the Steam want didn't have enough pressure to provide Microfoam. I want thick, creamy foam but I just get foam on top no matter how I work the Nozzle. Old fashioned machines are just more flexible. Cannot recommend.
The second day and the power button will NOT turn on! We used it literally once and it's already broken. We are not sure if we should take a chance and exchange.
