KNOWN LIMITATIONS

What the record cannot prove

  • AOT009 is distinct from SSP MP and other finish/burr SKUs.
  • The included cup is 58mm; other basket sizes are not claimed.

Published specifications do not prove taste, noise, durability, thermal stability, mess, or real-world speed. Those require a documented physical test.
