Crew Review: Saeco Poemia with Non-Pressurized Portafilter Upgrade

There's a lot we love in the world; we're just Pollyanna like that. But if we had to pick something we love a bit more than other things (and we're working on a well developed sliding scale and/or bell curve here), upgrading something lo-fi into something a bit more hi-fi is definitely one of them. Maybe it's the McGyver-esque shape and feel of it, we don't know. Whatever it is, the Saeco Poemia was an excellent candidate for a little soupin' up -- especially given our awesome non-pressurized portafilter! So this is how it went down: We asked Gail to pull shots with it, she did so and we filmed all the action for your viewing pleasure. Really, it's a blast -- so sit back, relax and watch the crema ensue.
