Owl Espresso Machine, 15 Bar Professional Semi-Automatic Espresso Maker with Milk Frother Steam Wand, 57oz Removable Water Tank, Dual Display, for Cappuccino, Latte at home, G3006, Ivory White

For $350 it is amazing what you get! You can set the temperature and perfusion times. This machine is attractive, fairly sturdy, and most of the elements are strong, well built. I highly recommend a ten minute warm up time so that you can pull a shot to temp. Powerful steamer with a long wand. It's hard to think of a negative here. My shots are dialed in and my extractions are fairly even. Water is coming out evenly from my group head which was something that really got to me on my old breville machine. I'm SO happy I picked a machine without a built in grinder this time. It has made a huge difference with my espresso.This machine is the best value for anything under $500, period. The espresso tastes great.

Really love the unique shiny look of this machine, great quality and build! Old cafe style look with modern features. Aluminum body which isnt the greatest for heat retention but when powered on for at least 10 mins, heats everything up including the portafilter when attached. Included portafilter is definitley of good quality and feels heavy. I got a bottomless one as well to see how my shots are coming out. Makes great espressos. Temperature is pretty consistent throughout when pulling a shot, although it may be a couple degrees less than what it's set to but can easily compensate by setting a couple degrees higher.Steam is very strong in this machine! It almost heats the milk a little too fast so be careful with small quantities of milk not to scorch them. Not sure if its just my machine. But it's great at making steamed and froth milk of at least 150ml, I still need to refine my technique. Too bad there isn't a setting to adjust steam temperature, only negative I would say about this espresso machine so far.Love the programable buttons for single and double shot. I came from a delonghi stilosa and I love the semi automatic features of this machine. No problems so far! I tried the bambino (not plus) before getting this and it couldn't get hot enough when pulling certain shots in an unpressurized basket and especially not hot enough for light roasted beans. Light roasted beans in this machine have been much better by adjusting the temp to about 208F because of the slight offset and grinding finer than dark/medium beans.Easy to wipe clean with it's smooth metal surface. I would say it's a little quieter than my old stilosa but not as quiet as the bambino, but noise has never been an issue for me for espresso machines. It's definitely bigger than my older stilosa and bambino but still fits on my counter with ample room above it. I just have to pull the machine forward to remove the water reservoir and refill it which is pretty standard for most espresso machines

Gemilai Owl Espresso Machine Purchased at a good price. Comes with single and double expresso baskets (58 mm) plus tamper. Can set infusion time, temp (Boiler) and water volume (time) or can use presets. LED Control panel easy to use. Pressure gauge to assess perfusion pressure. Instruction manual and user express sheet excellent. I think my expresso is as good as coffee shops. Steam wand works perfectly. Buttons for single or double shot espresso with manual button if prefer your own water ratio and a steam button. Heat up time is good. Unit with a beautiful metal casing, cup heater, and reasonably sized water reservoir. Low noise level. So far no complaints. Thanks Gemilai.

When it first arrived looks really exspesive and well put together but a lot of plastic made to look like stainless steal , started using it all in all the coffee does come out ok but i do thing for a few more hundred dollars theres much better options out there.

I’ve been using the GEMILAI 3006 espresso machine for about several weeks now, and it’s honestly exceeded my expectations. First of all, the build quality is solid – it feels like a professional machine, not some flimsy home appliance. The stainless steel design looks great on my kitchen counter.In terms of performance, it pulls a beautiful shot of espresso with thick crema every time. The taste is rich and smooth, just like what I’d get from a high-end café. I also love the steam wand – it froths milk quickly and evenly, so I can make lattes and cappuccinos at home whenever I want.It didn’t take long to get the hang of it, even as someone new to espresso machines. The buttons are straightforward, and it’s easy to clean. I use it every morning now, and it’s become part of my daily routine.
