~£650 Portable Pro

The Profitec Go is an anomaly — a machine made by a company known for £2,000+ prosumer equipment, priced at £650, and small enough to take on holiday. Don't mistake the size for a toy. It has a proper 58mm group, PID temperature control, a stainless steel boiler, and enough steam power for microfoam. The build quality is unmistakably German — every fitting feels precise, every surface is finished properly. It's not a dual boiler and it won't match a Bianca, but for a single-boiler PID machine at this price, nothing else comes close on build quality.

What to pair it with

1Zpresso JX-Pro

Portable machine, portable grinder. The JX-Pro's espresso-focused adjustment pairs perfectly with the Go's precise PID control, and both fit in a travel bag.

Who this is for

You want prosumer build quality without prosumer size or price. The Go is perfect as a primary machine in a small kitchen or as a second machine for a holiday home. It makes espresso that's competitive with machines costing twice as much.
