Crew Review: Francis Francis! X7
What’s so great about the new X7 by Francis Francis!? Obviously, its extra terrestrial stature, but it also has a few other excellent features for a machine in this class: Auto-fill brass boiler (so you don’t run the risk of burning it out like you can on other single boilers), flexible extraction options (grounds or pods) and a powerful steam wand that gets great results.
In this video, Gail talks to us about all these features and demonstrates making a latte.
Great review! This cute little machine has definitely caught my eye.
Another machine on your webstore that I’m liking is the Espressione Cafe Retro. Any plans to review this one? I didn’t see anything about it.
Thanks!
HI Greg!
We probably won’t do a review on the Cafe Retro unless we get another in the store (currently, we just drop ship these from the distributor), and we’re not big fans of it. You can read the machine’s stats and our editorial review of the machine on Brown Bean:
