FAQs

What accessories do I need to start making espresso at home?

A great machine is just the foundation. To pull the perfect shot, we recommend pairing your setup with a precision conical burr grinder, an ergonomic tamper, and a bottomless portafilter. You can explore our complete line of compatible gear and upgrades in our Espresso Collection.

How often should I clean and maintain my espresso machine?

Regular maintenance is the secret to great-tasting coffee and the longevity of your equipment. We recommend wiping and purging your steam wand after every use, and performing a backflush and descaling routine periodically. Shop our Espresso Maintenance collection for backflush discs, descaling tablets, and specialized cleaning tools.

How long does a home espresso machine take to heat up?

While traditional boiler-based machines can take up to 30 minutes to properly heat the group head, Fellow's advanced flow-through heater and boosted boiler architecture allow our espresso machines to be fully heated and ready to brew or steam in two minutes or less.

Do I need a separate grinder for my espresso machine?

Yes. A high-quality, dedicated espresso grinder is just as important as the espresso machine itself. While some entry-level machines feature built-in grinders, a standalone precision grinder (like the Fellow Opus) offers superior grind consistency, micro-adjustments, and prevents the machine's internal heat from prematurely degrading your coffee beans before they are brewed.

Is a high-end espresso machine difficult for beginners to use?

Traditional commercial machines can be intimidating, but modern precision machines are designed to remove the guesswork. Our espresso machines feature guided brewing profiles that automatically adjust for light, medium, and dark roasts, alongside an assisted steam wand that automatically froths your milk to the perfect temperature. It provides the built-in guardrails beginners need to pull a great shot on day one, while offering the deep manual customization that advanced baristas demand.
