New pre-infusion method? Or something?

+1 :)

That would be amazing. Probably my dream machine. No kidding.
Kees build, ingenuity and attention to detail is legendary.

I often wonder how the proportions would come out. Typically I find 2/3 group machines always look better than their single group counterparts.

It's not about 1 group sprit, I'm sure. But might be something about pressure profiling.

And Slayer also have somthing big one.

I'll be happy to take your "non-dream machine" Slayer off your hands should you not be using it.
I can pay you in Tuesday. :lol:

The Slayer is a dream machine too. The geek in me would have one of everything if I could. :)
I still secretly hope to find a Faema e61at a garage sale, along with a Lambro, Peppina, and a handful of others.

But in all honestly, had such a machine (single group Spirit with flow profile) been available, it would of been a very hard choice. I'm glad I didn't have to make it. I have a soft spot for both Kees and Slayer machines, each for different reasons.

I'm excited to see what comes out.

Kees thinks pressure profiling is ... a hype. He says so in this interview.

Personally I think he is wrong about dismissing it out of hand like that. Maybe it is just the way it is represented in this interview - but reading the article it probably is just his preference, nothing more because he seems to talk as if pressure profiling is something already fully developed, explored and gone off the market as a dead end. (Note that he does not make a lever anymore either. Been there, done that - doesn't fit his business profile anymore.) Kind of reminds me a bit about a certain remark about memory space in computers. Nobody wants it. Nobody needs it. Right. :oops:

This is more likely to be about the infusion only - also mentioned by Kees in the Sprudge interview.

Like every other trash marketing "sneak peak" we see on Instagram.

Well at least they waited to the week before the unveiling to start teasing us. Looking forward to seeing what they've come up with.
