Flair 58 Plus 2 Product Description
The Flair 58 Plus 2 is the new flagship from Flair Espresso, a manual lever espresso maker that provides full control over all brewing variables in a small countertop footprint.
The Flair 58 Plus 2 includes everything from the Flair 58 Family, like an integrated pressure gauge, 58mm portafilter, and preheat controller, while adding three key upgrades:
- Upgrade 1: The preheat system controller has been embedded into the base of the Flair 58 Plus 2 for seamless control
- Upgrade 2: The power supply has been significantly reduced in size
- Upgrade 3: The wiring on the Flair 58 Plus 2 has been streamlined for ease of use
The preheat system on the Flair 58 Plus 2 still includes three different levels: low, medium and high, which roughly correlate to brewing temperatures needed for dark, medium and light roasts respectively. And, if you’re feeling the travel itch, the 58 Plus 2 easily unplugs to brew espresso without any wires.
Finally, with the featured valve plunger the workflow on the Flair 58 Plus 2 is unrivaled, ensuring that if you’re brewing for yourself or your friends and family, one shot or multiple, the Flair 58 Plus 2 will delight with the ease and simplicity of creating delicious espresso.
What's Required for Flair 58 Plus 2 Brewing?
The Flair 58 Plus 2 is a barista level espresso machine, capable of creating and re-creating your favorite recipes from any coffee you own. As such, the 58 Plus 2 requires a full brewing kit of accessories to ensure top performance.
At a minimum, brewers with the Flair 58 Plus 2 must have:
- Espresso capable, high-quality burr grinder – Brewing espresso on the Flair 58 Plus 2 is a work of art and science. It’s impossible to dial-in your espresso extraction with inconsistent grounds. As such, it’s required to have an espresso-capable burr grinder to use with your 58 Plus 2. Expect to spend at least $150 and look for a unit with stepless grind sizing.
