I’m very proud of these first 5 units, they will ship out tomorrow! Congratulations to the lucky few who get the first units, but keep in mind that the build process is picking up speed, so it shouldn’t be more than a couple weeks for you to get shipping notifications too if you didn’t get […]
First, I would like to thank everyone who has pre-ordered a Forge. I have approximately 35 units to make so far. I know you are all anxious to get your units, and I’m really anxious for you to get them! But, a bit of sad news, the metal supplier told me originally that I’d get […]
Great news! Though I have been on what feels like a long journey, it’s been just a few months. Until I completed this process, I didn’t want to promise anyone anything, but I wanted to give as many updates as I could along the way. Most everything was on either YouTube or Facebook, so that […]
As most of you know if you’ve been subscribing to my YouTube channel and some on Facebook, I’ve been making good progress with the parts. Really the only thing I’m waiting on is a couple tool holders to be able to do ID threading and some minor boring. The lower ring I will be starting […]
Because of all the delays, I wanted to avoid as much as possible updates for the status on when the lathe was supposed to arrive, and what happened, and why it’s been delayed. Suffice to say, it’s finally here! Over the next week, I will be getting the machine setup, and will start to document my […]
Though Forges are all out of stock, the pre-orders are shipping! All is going well, but tiring process. The good news for a few waiting is that I’ve had a couple drop off, so some units will be available. I will contact you once I have sent out all pending orders.
As many of you may know (I have sent out to all who have pre-ordered Forges), Forges have been delayed due to a problem that needs correction. Some of the parts will be sent back to repair. I’m estimating everything to be solved around the end of May. We have a solution, so this is […]
For any that are not signed up for notifications on production status, just want to update that the custom parts for this coming round will be coming on Tuesday! There are only 2-3 units left out of the 50 being made. Once built they will be available to purchase directly. I also have the Kinu […]
After much experimentation, frustration, thought, testing and retesting, I have finally decided on the final method to seal the main tube to the top plate. Many failed experiments were tested before shipping, but the most reliable method at the time was used. The first 10 units had an o-ring in the channel, this worked on […]
Last of the pre-order queue went out today! You should have all gotten a tracking number, if not please email me at info@espressoforge.com and I’ll send you a link. New orders won’t have a queue to wait in, but could be up to a week of build time depending on my schedule and other orders […]
