In January 2023, we started making v1.44 of our DE1 espresso machine.

What's new in DE1 hardware v1.44
- Black machines will come with handles made from resin.
- We're removing the 3 small front screws that hold the front faceplate
- A new water intake filter, switching from the off-the-shelf mesh we've always had, to our own design.
- We are moving off NBR rubber, which is the standard on Italian pro machines, to Silicone Rubber, which is preferences of the Home Barista community.
- Torx screw heads for all group head pars
- New standby switch design, to improve clarity of how it works
