   Have been using about 2 weeks now. Easy to operate. I like the timer so as to repeat/determine best pull time.
   Sometimes the amount of extraction is different depending on my tamping, so still have to watch to determine amount of coffee in my cup. Used the steam wand only once since I’m not a latte drinker but seems to work fine. When it stoRead more about review stating Easy to usepped working the other day, I figured out the tank needed more water even though it wasn’t completely empty. Would be nice if there was a low water light.

   I was looking for an espresso machine with a quick heat up time, PID, compact footprint and good build quality. The Pro 300 has it all. It’s perfect for a small family and easy to pull consistent delicious espresso shots, especially with the convenience of the shot timer. It has a sufficient steam power and it takes approximately 35 seconds to steRead more about review stating Great Espresso Machineams 6 oz of milk. I always purge steam for 3-4 seconds in my cup to make it very warm. Recovery time is quick and in a few seconds pressure in the steam boiler reaches 1.4 bars.
   I paired the Profitec Pro 300 with the Eureka Silencio grinder and it works great.

   Pros:
   5-6 minute heat-up time (room temperature 72F)
   Very quiet
   Fast recovery time between shots/steaming
   PID becomes a shot timer
   Consistent shots

   Cons:
   Uncovered finger holes on the lid of the water reservoir
   Does not have low water level warning

   Originally wanted the Pro 500, but eventually realized my use case of a few cappuccinos each morning for 2 people made more sense with a dual boiler machine (no waiting to steam, and no need to “temp surf”). So far, loving the Pro 300 and the lady of the house has also easily mastered its use! Only took a handful of shot pulls to get it dialed in Read more about review stating Great machinewith my Niche Zero grinder. Enjoying excellent cappuccinos every morning now! My only complaint is the design of the small plastic magnetic float cap in the water reservoir which seems poorly designed and is easily disturbed when refilling the reservoir, causing the machine to instantly shut down. I remedied this by wrapping the plastic cap in saran wrap so it wedges more snugly into the float channel.

   Really happy with this machine. I like the level of control you get with temp. Does use more grounds than what I needed for my Breville but the flavor makes up for it. Real smooth and flavorful.

   I bought this machine for a second home where there wasn’t as much counter space. It’s much smaller & lighter than my ECM Synchronika but pulls an excellent shot. Actually better than the ECM right now so I have to revisit what’s going on there…

   Only weakness that I’ve noticed is the steaming power isn’t quite the same and the wandRead more about review stating Great second machine is really short and not as easy to maneuver but it will produce very nice foam. Also when back-flushing it leaks around the portafilter once pressure is built up so not sure what’s going on there.

   But overall super happy with the purchase.

   Good enough is good enough. The Profitec Pro 300 is good enough.

   I did lots of research and worried I would be unhappy and want to upgrade to a machine with more features and boiler capacity. In the end, the Profitec Pro 300 has been perfect for my home needs.

   Good enough doesn’t mean compromise. It means this machine is good eRead more about review stating Perfect for home usenough to meet all my home espresso (and milk drinks) needs.

   It’s perfect.
