I decided that my Decent espresso machine wasn't making me happy so I sold it and moved on to the Slayer Single Group. So far I love it, the espresso is fantastic. Best shots I've pulled in a long, long time.

That’s quite a move. Use it in good health

Um. That’s quite a setup. Are those Weber Portofilters in the wall too?

How can the shot quality be so different from the Decent to the Slayer?

Much better set up then the broke dude with the LM and eureka 🤣

$15k machine, $5 table. I love this sub

Genuinely curious. Taste wise, is the Slayer pulling better espresso than the Decent?

Congrats, love the machine. Not so much on the Weber stuff but won’t fault you on what makes you happy. Enjoy the Fk out of that.

Ignore the hate from the anything over $200 is a waste crowd. Sweet rig! Enjoy.

Enjoy it. Much of the enjoyment in a hobby is the fun and satisfaction – not everything is a value proposition so who cares what it costs. If it makes you happy, rock on!

That’s a fancy water boiler and vegetable cutter for sure 🙂

I had no idea there was a screen on the slayer. Cool spot for it.

I’ve got a Decent and love it, I’m not sure how I could possibly get better shots once I truly build a profile for a specific bean, and I love all the little quality of life things it does.
That being said, if I ever wanted to get another machine, it would be a Slayer. Always loved how they look and of course they make incredible coffee. Enjoy it!

Its just simple math guys. Total investment only $15k so if you just make your coffee at home instead of buying those 10 drinks per day from a cafe, this will pay for itself in a year! 🤑

I know that the formulas really don’t work when the numbers get this high, but for me, the breakeven point (espresso machine alone) would be around 10 years. 😉 🙂

Didn’t like the decent either . It made great coffee but didn’t bring me joy to use . My la marzocco puts a smile on my face every morning now

Contemplating the same upgrade as a De1pro + eg1 owner but i’m wondering if the slayer single is that much better 🙂 let us know your findings!

Screw the haters, that machine is 🔥 🤓

Never used slayer. You have more control of brew pressure with the lever twisting? How would you compare difference of workflow and espresso you are producing?

Slayer is my endgame the new one they just debuted is needed badly 🥰

How’s that doing vs the Decent? Did you sell the Decent well?

That thing looks like it costs about the price of a fighter jet.
