“The machine is very well built and heavier than expected. It is very easy to use and program through the PID. Steam capacity is unreal especially if you max out the PID setting and use a 5 hole tip. Espresso extraction is fantastic and I can really tell the difference between this and my previous machine. Rinaldo’s extra ims shower screen was a nice add on and considering the excellent service I could not be happier with choosing this machine!”
“After much research, I ordered the ECM Synchronika from Rinaldo's. Order was acknowledged and advised of delivery and everything went to plan. The machine arrived and I proceeded with the setting up. Rinaldo had even marked some pertinent pages in the manual which was a nice touch. Now, having done my research I was aware folks said the tank would empty, but I never realised just how quickly it empties during the filling procedure, i.e. the dual boilers just suck all that water straight in very quickly emptying the tank. After the initial fill, the tank is plenty big enough to supply the boilers, but that initial fill procedure did feel a little bit like an initiation ritual. The machine is refined and a joy to use, and the enhancements of the IMS filter screen and silicone seal do seem really worthwhile, thank you.”
“I've had the ECM Synchronica for just over a week now and I'm thoroughly enjoying it. The quality of the construction is impressive, quite a step up from my previous machine. The results I've had so far have been very good.
Service from Rinaldo's was equally impressive, I had a telephone conversation with them in the morning and the machine was delivered and up and running in my home that afternoon”
“I was researching online and considering a machine almost twice the cost of the ECM, but kept seeing reviewers refer to this one instead which I hadn't heard of. Researched some more; talked to Rinaldos and their fine manner and down to earth experienced knowledge convinced me. I travelled to Kendal to pick it up and was treated to a very warm hospitable hands on intro to my machine. Can't speak highly enough of Rin and team (plus their great in house roasts - I think I'm now addicted to the ground expresso fragrance of their Casa Expresso Roast!!). The ECM is fantastic, really solid, great looking, quiet, has a quality feel throughout & consistently high performing. Very much recommend it and the customer experience at Rin's.”
Many thanks Murray - we put customer service right at the top of our priority - who doesn't want to have great customer experience, right? We know you'll love the ECM espresso machine - it's total quality. Enjoy.
“Having owned prosumer machines for the last 12 years, I can more fully appreciate the extra features of this excellent machine. In order of appreciation: very quiet rotary pump, precise boiler temp, powerful and controllable steam wand and shot timer, and that is not mentioning the extraordinarily high finish quality. Almost a shame if you buy this as your first machine as you get everything straight away!
Thanks to Rin for his expertise and help in expediting delivery.”
“This machine is amazing! It is so easy to use (especially after the indepth personal tuition from Rin - masterclass!)
Enjoying luxurious coffee (Casa blend) everyday! The ECM is well worth the investment, it raises the bar for home espresso way beyond expectations. Enjoying a velvety smooth latte as we write this review!”
“We have had the Technika V Profi PID coffee machine and the S-Automatik 64 grinder for nearly a week and are delighted. The quality of the coffee is superb and we are looking forward to learning more. Rin's explanations and demonstrations were invaluable as it would have taken us a very long time to master the process ourselves!”
Many thanks - we're committed to offering a full service, which includes free training on using the ECM machines, sound advice and some extras. We really appreciated you supporting independent businesses.
“Excellent service from Rin has placed a wonderful example of German-Italian engineering in the hands of an enthusiastic amateur who hopes that one day, with much practice (& no doubt a little frustration too) he'll be able to do the machine the justice it deserves”
