HIBREW H10A - 58mm Espresso Machine, Stainless Steel Body with Milk Frother, Customizable Settings, Smart Display + 20 Bar Pressure Gauge. (Black)

After reading countless reviews and watching coffee critics videos I decided to purchase this machine. So far I'm absolutely loving it. I love how you can customize the temperature you want and by ML's. The cold brew espresso setting very convenient when you want an iced drink. The steamer wand works great in getting a silky milk texture.The espresso taste amazing and smooth. My preferred settings are 93° and 170ml double cup. Its not too loud which is a big plus for mornings. Beginner friendly as well.

It comes with a lot of accessories in the box. With filters, it makes the excellent coffee. The best part is that it's programmable. Following the instruction, you can adjust how much coffee it makes, so the pressure can be different based on how it is programmed and what filter is used. And every time it is turned on, it warms up fast. Within a minute, coffee is made.It is also a good looking coffee maker. Its stainless steel is well made and elegant. After using for over a month, cleaning is necessary, and we find it easy to clean. We are glad that we bought this coffee machine. We don't have any issues so far. It's great value, absolutely worth the money. And most importantly, it makes excellent coffee.

I recently switched to the HiBREW H10A after using a Breville Barista Touch because I wanted a setup with a separate grinder and an espresso machine that offered PID temperature control on a tighter budget (under $300). I compared several options, including the Breville Infuser, and felt this was the best fit based on features and reviews. The build quality is excellent for the price, and my 58 mm Mhw-3bomber impact tamper fits the portafilter perfectly. The ability to fine-tune temperature, pre-infusion, and shot volume has helped me dial in consistent extractions. I mostly drink straight espresso or an occasional americano, so I haven’t used the steam wand yet, but it’s nice to know it’s there. After several weeks of daily use, the machine heats quickly, delivers stable pressure, and pulls rich, flavorful shots. At this price point it’s hard to ask for more. I’m super happy with this purchase and would recommend it to anyone looking for an affordable yet capable espresso machine with serious controls.

I wanted a small footprint machine for my boat, and the reviews all seemed to be pretty good.The adjustable temperature for Pre infusion, Espresso and steam has been fun to play with. Also the water/steam dial on the side let's you do things like reducing the pressure at end of the shot like a lever machine. It's been really fun trying all the tricks. You can make very good espresso with this little guy. For the money and counter space this is a great machine.What I don't like. Because I is so light it tends to hop around on the counter when you install and remove the Portafilter. Steaming milk is SLOW. I didn't crank up the steam temp and got it down to about 60 seconds. Definitely steam your milk first. Sloppy Puck. It doesn't release the pressure when the shot is finished. Open the water/ steam dial for a second when the shot finishes prior to removing the Portafilter, seems to help. I wish it had a bottomless portafilter. That seems like a no Brainer you would think it would be cheaper.This is a great starter machine and ideal for a cabin or boat where counter space is a premium. Way better than the Wacco, Flair, or any of the machines in the price range.

I’m really impressed with how the HiBREW h10a balances simplicity with excellent results. If you want a reliable, affordable espresso machine without diving into full-on barista gear, this one hits the sweet spot. It’s been a joy to use daily—smooth shots, decent froth, and zero fuss. Highly recommended for anyone who wants café-quality at home without overthinking it!

The media could not be loaded. I've been using the H10A for a week and it's been a fantastic, powerful little machine. I’m using the H10A machine as an upgrade from the Hibrew H10B, which was a great mini version of this machine with a 51mm portafilter so I was already familiar with the simple design language and features.The H10A is an affordable espresso machine that offers some premium accessories and features that normally come standard on more expensive, higher end machines. This is a 58 mm group head so this machine gives you access to a variety of espresso accessories that smaller 51mm machines typically don’t have. It comes with a solid tamp made from metal and wood that is lightyears better than the standard plastic tamps that normally come with espresso machines as well as a milk frothing pitcher. One thing that stood out to me was the included portafilter. It’s heavy and solid and feels really nice to handle, adding to the “premium” experience. I plan on upgrading to the bottomless portafilter since it’s my preference to see how my shots are coming through to make any necessary adjustments as I dial them in, and I like the extra room I gain so I can use my bulky scale to weigh shots without the double spout in the way.The pressure gauge and LCD display is simple, clear and straight forward and allows me to control a lot of variables to dial in my shots just right. The temperature control is very helpful to adjust based on the roast level of the beans I’m using (higher temps for lighter roasts). The volumetric controls for the single and double shot buttons are very helpful and pretty consistent. Using a scale to weigh my yield is more accurate (I set the single shot button to about 40-45 ml and get about 36-40 ml output yield), but sometimes I like the convenience of a single button press and auto off, and my scale is a little too bulky for my to fit certain cups under.The most important aspect of the machine: the taste of the shots. In short, this machine makes excellent, delicious espresso! I mainly drink Americanos and the H10A does a fantastic job with them consistently. To get the best results make sure to use freshly roasted beans about 2-4 weeks out from the roast date; this needs to be the highest priority to get the best tasting espresso. In addition, you need to have a quality burr grinder that can grind fine enough for espresso to get the best flavor out of your beans. I am fortunate enough to have access to both fresh beans and a quality grinder. If you have that, all you need to do is work on your puck prep technique; this is where skill becomes a factor. Make sure you have an evenly distributed bed of coffee in the portafilter and tamp down evenly to ensure you won’t have any uneven extraction.I rarely drink milk based espresso drinks, but I did test the steam wand and it was pretty efficient. I only tested it with almond milk since that’s all I had and it got the job done. I’m not great at latte art, but this is a great machine to learn with and I imagine that using regular whole milk, or any other milk substitute specially designed for baristas, would make it so much easier to get the exact texture needed for latte art. It seems powerful enough to make great textured milk.One thing I wish the H10A had is a 3 way solenoid, which I notice the H10A plus has. That feature alone would make cleaning up so much easier. Although the H10A works wonderfully out of the box, I do highly suggest getting a coffee scale, dosing funnel, puck screen, WDT tool, distributor, and a calibrated tamper to make the puck prep process so much more easier. With the 58 ml portafilter, you can easily find many affordable options online.Overall, I have been having a fantastic experience with the H10A so far, and as long as it keeps working I’m completely content with sticking with this machine for the long haul. In my view, there are not many drastic improvements to be made even with a fancier $1000 machine with all the bells and whistles in terms of the tastiness of your espresso. It’s diminishing returns at that point unless you want to nerd-out and see and control every little variable of your espresso shot. As long as you have quality coffee beans, a good grinder and filtered water with your H10A you have everything you need for amazing espresso based drinks! Highly recommended!
