Open Source is our secret sauce: why other espresso machines fall behind



Open Source is our secret sauce


What makes Decent Espresso different? It's not just hardware—it's our open approach to software, profiles, and community. Here's why others try to copy us and still fall behind.

In this behind-the-scenes talk, Decent Espresso founder John Buckman explains the philosophy that drives constant innovation—from tackling the challenge of brewing a good light-roast espresso to building a global, open-source coffee ecosystem.

You'll learn how openness fuels invention, how community experimentation leads to better espresso, and why copying the surface value of a product isn't enough.
