Editor · Barista-trained tester

About Contact Testing Terms of Service Privacy Policy

I’m Aleksandar Spasevski, editor at Coffeedant and a barista-trained tester. This site exists to help you skip hype and choose gear that actually performs at home.

I run repeatable tests for temperature stability, shot yield, flow behavior, and milk texture, then live with each machine long enough to surface real strengths and weak points.

When possible I buy units at retail or borrow them anonymously, and I disclose and return any loaners. Brands do not see drafts and cannot influence scores. My picks come from measured results, workflow, reliability, and serviceability, not marketing copy.

Coffeedant is funded by affiliate links that may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Reader support keeps my testing independent.

Spot an error or want a model reviewed next? Reach me on the contact page.
