Hey Paul, In New Zealand you can see a Slayer at Coffee Supreme’s Custom Brew Bar 39 Ghuznee St, Wellington. Loved their choice of origins and the Clover machine too.

Thanks for following the progress. Slayer will be introduced first at a brand new cafe in Tribeca, called RBC. We’re super excited.

You say in your blog soon a Slayer will be coming to New York. Can you say where? I’ve been reading your site and watching your videos. WOW. That looks amazing! Can’t wait to try it out. You guys rock, and thanks for thinking outside the box.

You know, as soon as I started reading about the Slayer I fell in love and very very soon I’ll have the chance to get my paws on one. Since I want to treat this thing like my own precious baby, I’ve been reading everything you all have posted. The additional information has been a big help. Thank you and as soon as I get to open that wooden box, thank you again.

Did a Slayer make it to Nova Scotia and we missed it?!
Let us know if one is still around or on its way.

Well after watching Josh pour shot after shot after shot on you tube through the slayer I’ve finally begun to realise the excitement that has been budding about this machine. One of my friends, Ben from Shenkin in Erskineville recently went to Melbourne to try it out for an hour and came back a changed man. I currently use a paddle (preinfuse) two group linear LaMarzocco and am wondering if I can even contemplate attempting the same idea through that machine, just to get a basic understanding of what the Slayer can prouduce and to experiment with the different blends, because it opens up so many doors, so many different flavour palates, because christ, I’ve yet to experience an espresso with a citirus flavour to it, and God damn it, I want to…..

Cheers

Quote:

“What we have found is almost all coffee benefits from the lower pressure, pre-brew phase that Slayer pioneered.”

In what way pioneered? the varied pressure preinfusion/prewetting/initial phase of extraction (call it whatever you want) is a known thing with lever machines and was used in some DIYed pump-driven espresso machines a long time ago, so I’m not sure where’s the pioneering.

Is the Slayer that is headed to Nova Scotia going to Zane at “Two if by the Sea” cafe?
