電動スチームキット：Flair Classic

I was skeptical about pulling espresso by hand, but the direct lever system gives me total control over pressure, and the beginner portafilter made my first shot surprisingly drinkable. Cleanup is quick, though the learning curve for the advanced basket is real—still, way better than my old machine.

The dual portafilters are a nice touch—I started with the beginner one and it made dialing in way less intimidating. My first shot actually came out with a proper crema, which I definitely didn't expect on a manual setup.

The lever action is way more satisfying than I expected—pulling a shot feels like a little ritual every morning. I switched from the beginner portafilter to the advanced one after a week and the difference in control is noticeable.
