Gevi Espresso Machine unboxing and demo
Вставка
- Опубліковано 31 лип 2024
- I am unboxing and testing the Gevi espresso machine. I make a cafe latte and cafe mocha with it. This unit does not come with a steaming pitcher or shot glasses, but I ordered some that work very well with it. All items were available to order from Amazon linked below. This is my first video on this channel, so hopefully it will prove helpful for anyone in search of an espresso machine and accessories that won't break your budget.

Hey I’ve got this machine too, when the steam light goes off it’s best to wait for it to heat back up, at a certain point it will loose steam and inject water only into the milk
Very informative. I just bought this machine and I’m excited to pull my very first Latte!!
I bought one just waiting on delivery, enjoyed your video thank you
this was so helpful! thank you
Thank you, this was very helpful 👍
Glad to be of service!
I just got mine. The instructions say that after steam, the temperature will be too high to brew and that it takes a while for it to come down. Any thoughts on that?
If I froth before I make a shot, lights flash. Steam mode (on the older machines at least) is higher and requires you to wait before you can go back to brew.
Hello Everyone. I just got mine in the mail today and tried brewing the first espresso. Mine came out real watery and without the frothy head we come to expect with any good espresso shot.. After kinda giving up I came back into my kitchen and noticed I had water all over the counter.. I immediately unplugged the machine and took the resevoir off the back only to notice an orange rubber cover over the water intake hole.. I took that off and now it brews fine.. For the life of me I dont understand how it brewed anything at all with that cover on it. Also If you want a true espresso shot, hit the "making espresso" button right after the brew starts to turn clear..

are you still alive?
Hi! We usually like 4 shots when we order at a coffee shop. I’m a bit confused how to do multiple shots. Can I use the same grounds twice or a certain amount of grounds for a longer pour? I know one shot is 1 oz but I don’t want to go four oz and it be watery and not the right caffeine etc. any help would be great!
You can pull 2 shots (2oz) at a time with this machine, but then you have to empty the portafilter, give it a rinse then put in fresh espresso for your additional shots. Once you get the routine down you can pull 4 shots pretty quickly.
I really want to love this machine, but when I put water in, it leaks out of the bottom. Does yours have the orange thing under the water tank? I feel like that thing should help somehow, but I’m not sure if it’s function.
The “orange thing” you mention is not on mine now. That may have been a part of the packing that needed to be removed before using the machine. It’s been a few months since I first got my machine so I don’t recall it being there so I must have removed it. My machine does not leak at all and in I use it almost on the daily. Can you easily remove it from your tank and give it another try?
Thank you for clear instructions. Just purchased this myself 😊. Wondering if you turn off the machine between cups of coffee?
When I finish making coffee for me and my wife I turn the machine off, unplug it and clean all the parts. Since we got the machine (the day before I posted this video) we've used it every single day for our afternoon or evening lattes!
Did you have to prime this machine?
I accidentally threw away that black piece that’s on the steam wand I wonder if that has to do with my steam wand not working as well. Mine takes forever to steam the milk and it always end up being super foamy (which I don’t really mind) and I feel like the shots pull super super fast. Is there a way to calibrate the espresso machine?
Too much foam means you need to put the steam wand deeper into the pitcher to where it is almost touching the bottom. I also tap the pitcher on the counter after steaming which helps settle the foam. The black piece on the wand you mentioned is to allow you to move the wand around without burning your fingers.
As far as the espresso pulling to fast you may need tamp the coffee so that its packed like a puck. Also, your coffee needs to be ground fine for espresso.
See if that helps!
did you happen to look at jazzy machine also on Amazon it had high rates but can't find much on it. I'm looking at this also
I did not look into that machine. Once I saw this was on sale and checked out its ratings I went with it.
Hi what’s the portafilter size of one wants to buy it off the market?
51 mm for Most Gevi. Check if yours is three ears or two, tho.
You can use soy and other milks in these? Ive always only used half and half or heavy cream.. Never knew those were doable in the froth
yep, you can even do skim milk, but it's a little more difficult.
Yeah, there's a lot you can do or make with these. Hundreds of different espresso drinks is kind of like making cocktails but with coffee lol… actually some espresso drinks having a cocktail shaker helps haha
I find it hard to make proper microfoam with this frother to make a latte art, it gets too bubbly, especially when you pour at the end from a milk pitcher. Maybe I am doing something wrong🤔
Proper microfoam is actually pretty difficult to do and takes a lot of practice. Even if you have a proper steam wand you can still struggle to do it right. The best advice I can give is to try to minimize the amount of large bubbles as much as possible by keeping the wand inside of the milk fairly deep.
How we turn on the cup warmer
When the unit is on it heats up. There is not a separate switch for it. I have found that the cup warmer doesn't really seem to be of much use.
Does water not come out the steamer when you go to froth?
A small amount of water will come out when you first use it so I recommend catching it in a cup and discarding it before you actually steam your milk in the pitcher. After that you are good to go.
As soon as I put the machine in water comes through. Why is this happening ?
I’m sorry, I don’t understand your question. Are you saying it is leaking water when you fill the tank?
The one you linked to doesn't look like the one in your video...
Mine taste super watery. Any idea why? Using Starbucks dark roast espresso coffee.
Is the coffee ground finely for espresso and are you tamping it enough? Another thing is before you steam milk run the steam wand into an empty cup first to clear it for a moment until just steam comes out. There is always leftover water in the line which if you don't do that will go into your milk watering it down.
bro i like your hair
To me it looks like weak coffee - 2 shots from small amount of coffee. And you taste it only with milk!!!
Also machine sounds loud!
Will you make a coffee when family is still sleeping?
Espresso is highly concentrated coffee and those 2oz shots are the equivalent to an 8oz cup of coffee at about 126 mg of caffeine. Sometimes I just have a demitasse cup of straight espresso for a little "pick me up" after I get home from work. Espresso machines are loud because they build up pressure for the steam to aerate milk for the beverages. I don't use mine in the morning as I prefer to have black dark roast coffee from my drip brewer then. However, if I was to use it in the morning and wake my wife with the noise. She would probably run down the stairs and have me make her a cafe latte. 😁
@@wolffmanshowlings331 I know, but you don't taste coffee shot, you taste a milk drink. Thanks for answer anyway.
I watched a bunch of videos, looks like some espresso makers are built better and not so loud.
@@pad84x I agree I have the same machine and I used to be a barista. It’s not pulling shots using all of the coffee I think it has to do with the power and pressure of the machine. You can actually get machines with stronger power from this company but they’re more expensive, it’s a job done but it won’t be as good as other machines or strong
Where in the hell did you get the rug on your head?
You need a cardboard crusher in the house if you’re going to make a habit of unboxing.

hair hella fake

Doubt it. He has a beard
..I'm sure that's his hair

You can't reuse the same grounds, need new fresh ones
whenever you order "extra shots" at a coffee shop, they have to reset, use new coffee grounds, and pull an entirely new shot.
