Review on ๐Ÿพ Breville Bambino Plus Espresso Machine: The Finest in Royal Champagne by Christopher Isaac

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Quick start, easy to use and small

: I can't upload more than 1 video. So I deleted the original and uploaded a new one. No bear hugs. Since my portafilter has been modified you can see the flow. Update after 3 months of use: I feel I should clear up some of the misinformation contained in some reviews, basically a car bear hug to install a portafilter. That's the deal. You don't have to drag it until it's at the 6 o'clock position. Simply plug in and twist slightly. Mine is mostly at the 7 o'clock position. I would also avoid using pre-ground or very fresh beans. Grind as needed. For me, it's best to grind grains that are a week old. I got a 2 day Revain/Equator bean roast with fresh beans and they didn't work that well. You can see in my 2nd video it took me 1.5 minutes from start to finish. No bear hugs and I'm about a 1:2 ratio. I'm not picky about that. I'll be posting a milk texturing video soon. Do not use automatic milk foam. It's dirty! Structure it yourself and after that it is very easy to clean. Really quick start. Easy to use and perfect for the countertop without taking up space as it takes up little space. For use with the original portafilter (cut off below) and non-pressurized basket purchased direct from Breville. Paired with Sette 270 and Acaia bowls.

Pros
  • There's something to it
Cons
  • No automatic update
