    Hi all,

    I can vouch for the coffee that Atomics are capable of producing, given the right time and attention.

    I'd say that the extraction they produce is catered more towards milk coffee drinkers, and you can produce a consistently smooth, strong extraction from them.

    I own two of the original versions (not the Sorrentina), and they've both been consistently good over long periods of time. Be careful when experimenting with lower doses though (had a few incidents...).

    The milk steaming can be outstanding as well... I've found it's best for low volumes of milk though; it doesn't quite cope with anything more than a 600ml jug.

    With that said though, if you're looking at producing anything more than 2-4 coffees at a time, this may not be the machine for you. They take a fairly long time to cool down in between coffees.

      I can vouch for this having owned one 33 years ago. How many Atomic users have opened the coffee bong too early? ...... coffee grind deposited directly onto your ceiling and walls!
      Do make sure they are cooled before changing for the next round. Is this where they got the 'Atomic' moniker form?
      I love these machines for the beauty they embody.
