Flair 58x Espresso Maker (2023 Edition)

Flair 58x (2023 edition) is a fully-manual, non-electric version of the Flair 58. This model is a professional grade lever espresso press that is focused on maximizing the workflow and the espresso from at-home extractions. The 58x features Flair’s first industry standard 58mm portafilter as well as a more robust frame and lever for ease of extractions at higher pressures. As this version is completely non-electric, customers can preheat and engage in thermal management using the open preheat cap. Flair’s new valve plunger, which includes a puck screen, also ensures there is no need to remove the stem to add your brew water, further enhancing your workflow!

The Flair 58x is the gold standard in manual espresso from Flair. Unlock the true potential of your extraction.

What new in the 2023 edition:

• Detachable Preheat Cable: The Flair 58x now comes as “Electric Enabled,” meaning all wiring for electric preheat will be present in the brew head they receive. To upgrade, you will simply need to purchase the Preheat Controller System Kit.
• Mirror Upgrade Enabled: The Flair 58x now features a stainless steel disc that has been embedded into the post of the lever assembly. This disc allows any Flair 58x buyer to upgrade to the magnetic, articulating shot mirror and add it to their setup with ease.
• Enhanced Valve Plunger with Single Slot: Enhanced plunger with a single slot instead of dual slot); providing an improved valve function when filling the brew cylinder and a reduced potential for the stem to raise from the plunger when stem tabs fall into alignment with the smaller single slot.

Features:

• Fully Manual: Manual process and integrated pressure gauge for precise brew variable control. Immediate feedback while brewing allows for real-time adjustments.
• Professional Grade 58mm Portafilter: The portafilter features a beautiful wooden handle and will work with any standard 58mm portafilter basket, tamper, distribution tools and other 58mm accessories.
• Enhanced Usability: The Flair 58 features a wide base for stability, an elongated lever for ease of pulling at higher pressures, a T-grip for lever comfort and control as well as advanced mechanical workflow for rapid-fire extractions
• Elegant Finishes: The premium built Flair 58 comes with stainless steel components for a plastic-free brew path, die-cast aluminum frame to withstand years of extractions and deluxe wooden accents for a luxurious feel and look.
