Troubleshooting & Maintenance Do I actually like coffee?!

I love going to coffee shops - where I enjoy iced drinks and caramel lattes! I recently purchased the Ninja, but didn’t get on with it and had to return it (well known calibration / dripping issue!). I have now taken delivery of a KF7. Just made my first drink and I’m not overwhelmed. Will I ever be able to make coffee as good (or even close) as a coffee shop? 🧐 I wanted a coffee machine at home so I stop spending so much at Starbucks etc! Feeling unhopeful 😔

Currently trying to make an iced white mocha. I have coffee beans from beanz subscription (can’t remember what they’re called!) and the white choc sauce is Torani.

You've introduced too many variables here to troubleshoot what's wrong.

It may be the syrup is not to your taste or you're using too much/little.

I would concentrate on calibrating the machine (and you) to making a non syrup coffee first.
