I was hoping he was going to measure the claimed temperature accuracy, since a big part of it was the ability to switch it on and make an espresso straight away.
The stated hope was that this technology would be able to trickle down, but he also provided examples of extremely cheap machines that could already do the same thing (but that produce shitty coffee) so I’m assuming the technology he’s hoping trickles down is the ability to quickly and accurately heat water?
Yeah, that was my takeaway. He really liked the ability to have espresso whenever he wants without having to wait for the machine to warm up while also not using any electricity. The accuracy portion of the actual temperature was secondary.

The temperature testing might have been hampered by it not being a 58mm portafilter as I think his Scace is 58mm? Just guessing obviously.
I think so too. The 55 mm complicates things
