Final Thoughts
The 3002 looks neat and is easy to keep clean. It has no 3 way solenoid valve, so cannot be
backflushed and a thorough cleaning of the shower screen would be via removal of the nut
and shower screen itself.
Descaling is apparently not necessary, which in the UK I don’t think is correct. I certainly
would advise descaling a machine like this on a regular basis, because once any channels
are blocked, you CAN’T get any descaler through to remove lime-scale buildup (an expensive
problem)! The process should be quite easy, simply fill the tank with descaler and run it
through the group and steam wand.
The 3002 appears to have been designed with the USA market in mind. The type of coffee
drunk in the USA tends to be americanos or milk based drinks, rather than pure espresso.
The machine is for those in a hurry, they want a decent coffee and they want it quickly, no
waiting for the machine to warm up. Additionally the thermobloc has simplicity of use, no
special procedures to avoid damage and instant steam, hot water or coffee brew water, at the
press of a button. All ideal for the USA
If you like a really good espresso, then this machine may not suit you, unless you like your
shots on the cool side or your blend works well with the cooler brew water. I also think there
are far more capable machines on the market at a similar cost. They won’t have some of the
nice design features or the simplicity of use of the 3002, but this does come at the expense of
espresso quality and hot water production!
If you can stretch the budget a little more, I think it’s always advisable to consider a
machine with a boiler such as the, Isomac Venus (very similar price, but a superior
machine) or the Isomac Zaffiro, a little more money, but does step you into the
“prosumer” category.
Bella Barista will most probably not be adding this machine to the range, as it doesn’t
really meet the 2 standards they have set themselves in supplying quality espresso
machines to their customers, quoted below:
We would use them ourselves
They are capable of making coffee as good or better as that served in the best
coffee bars
I think it’s important to say that Bella Barista has to purchase these machines to try them out,
so it’s an expensive process if they decide not to sell them! If you’re reading this review, it’s
because Bella Barista have decided to let you see the sort of review that makes them
unwilling to stock a machine, because it simply does not meet the criteria above. That said, if
you are reading this, it should also give you confidence in the impartiality of the other
reviews for the machines they do stock
I would imagine they have one very slightly used test model 3002 for sale, if you don’t
drink espressos, it could be a bargain, if you do drink espressos, buy something else!
