I suppose because the drip is so slow.

The drip is really too bad

With the platform removed, there is still a nice little drip pan to sit the mug on

Being able to remove the top drip tray gives you a lot of flexibility in the amount of coffee you make.

Extremely slow drip, takes forever to make 1 espresso

However, once the espresso was made and the cup was removed, drips from the basket would not fall through the holes in the drain and into the drain pan.

I cleaned it a few times and now the espresso drips very slowly, if not at

The 15 bar pump in this thing can't push out more than slow drips at a medium grind setting on my Jericho coffee bean grinder

but it's still noisy and very slow dripping

we tried everything the manual said to correct the drip, nothing worked

Sometimes it's an insanely slow drip, a single drip, rarely two-sided drip

Not even a drip of coffee as the pump motor sounds funny

Sometimes it's an insanely slow drip, a single drip, rarely two-sided drip

Got a nice coffee for around 5 - 6 months, then the machine lost pressure, and couldn't get anything from it, but a sad dripping
