Lower the lever, raise the expectations.

Meet “Flair 58+”! Equipped with everything you’ve come to expect from the “Flair 58” family, yet boasting enhanced features and aesthetics, “Flair 58+” is a home barista’s dream. Beautiful, simple workflow yields café-quality espresso, right in the comfort of your own home.

KEY FEATURES

– “Flair 58 Plus” is the new flagship from Flair Espresso. Boasting all features from the base “Flair 58” model, “Flair 58+” shines even brighter thanks to gorgeous walnut accents on the portafilter, T-grip and palm tamper. The shot mirror included in the set attaches to the post magnetically for even more convenience.

– The pre-heat system on “Flair 58+” includes three different levels: low, medium and high. These correlate roughly to the brewing temperatures best suited for dark, medium and light roasts respectively. Simply select your pre-heat setting and let “Flair 58+” take care of the rest! By the way, if you’re feeling the travel itch, “58+” features an easily detachable pre-heat controller, meaning that you can go off-grid and brew your espresso anywhere.

– The new “Flair 58+” model includes both Flair portafilter baskets—the high-flow and the low-flow—to ensure home baristas have all the control they need.

– The valve plunger results in unrivalled workflow: whether you’re brewing for yourself or your friends, whether you’re after a single shot or a number of them, “Flair 58 Plus” is bound to delight with its ease and simplicity.

– With the 58-mm industry-standard system, there are no restrictions on brewing with “Flair 58 Plus”! The ground coffee dose can be expanded by purchasing different baskets.

WHAT’S DOES BREWING WITH “FLAIR 58 PLUS” REQUIRE?

“Flair 58 Plus” is a barista-level espresso maker, capable of recreating all of your favourite recipes. As such, the “58 Plus” model requires a full kit of brewing accessories to ensure top performance. Brewing with “Flair 58 Plus” requires you to have the following:

– A high-quality burr grinder suited for making espresso. Brewing espresso with your “Flair 58 Plus” is both a work of art and a scientific project, which is why you must use an espresso-capable burr grinder alongside this coffee maker. Your best bet is a grinder with a stepless grind adjustment system.

– High-quality kettle. While a temperature-controlled kettle is not required for brewing with “Flair 58 Plus”, it’ll definitely improve your workflow and make the experience more enjoyable. To allow for precise thermal inputs, a kettle with a thermometer is a must though.

– Digital scale. Any scale will do, but keep in mind that repeatable results require both your inputs and outputs to be measured.

IS “FLAIR 58 PLUS” RIGHT FOR ME?

“Flair 58 Plus” is perfect for anyone searching for a lever-based espresso machine that’s as beautiful as it is capable. The “Flair 58 Plus” model doesn’t require you to be an advanced espresso brewer. It’s great for those who dream of high-quality espresso, a manual workflow that’s streamlined and simple, and the experience of brewing their own espresso with ease.
