The Mara X was my upgrade from Gaggia Classic and I have never looked back. The only upgrade so far was a bottomless portafilter and E61 grouphead thermometer Enjoy 😊
@@tmb-themajesticbeanchannel1746 and a HUGE thanks for the words of thanks - Greatly appreciated - Keep up the great work and remember to visit me at the shop soon to try out more coffee toys.
I have a question, is it normal for steam to escape at the bottom of the Mara, behind the drip try next to the temp control switch? Happens at start up and periodically after that.
Thanks for asking us not to worry about your Gaggia Classic. I was really worried sick, LOL...
Thanks fore this video!

Well said Todd, did the same with the bottomless and recently added a flow profiler 😁
Whats the difference in espresso quality?
how long to startup this machine?
@@shafgha69
Do you mean the time it takes to warm up if so about 25 minutes
@@toddredlin5634 yes..ok thanks
I'm so tempted right now to upgrade to this Mara X.
@@costillero2189 what machine do you recommend?
Bravissimi. Non dimenticare la Gaggia!
Congrats!! What a great machine.
Thank you 🙏
Hi mate. Why did you decide to go from Gaggia to Mara? I am deciding whether to go from my breville 800 to either Gaggia or go deep and get the Mara.
We need it for some other plans we have for the channel. Go for the Mara if you have the money part covered
good stuff mate excited to see how you find the new machine
First impressions video is coming soon mate, thank 😊🙏
Very shiny ✨. How much extra for flow
Profiling kit add on ?
Costs around $300 aud new
That’s a really great new toy. Enjoy.
Thank you Paul 🙏

Have you added flow control to Mara X ? If so do you have video installing ?
Yes sir, coming out in a few weeks

👍
Why did you pick this particular model. I’m looking to upgrade from my breville and I can’t decide what to get.
Main reason is the value for money, it also has a small footprint :D
Instead Lelit I really wanted to see (nearly similar price) unboxing of Rocket Appartamento. Anyway still great choice :)
I think the Lelit provides better value for money that the Rocket, but that's my opinion 😂
Apartamento looks better but lelit is hightech and way better
Where did you buy your bottomless portafilter and how much?
got it from KBean espresso machines here in Melbourne, cost around aud50
@TMB - The Majestic Bean Channel / Home Barista cheers mate! I'm based in Sydney. Really enjoying your videos btw. I'm an avid subscriber. 😎
Very nice machine 👍
