Crumbling shower head [Sage Barista Express]
I've seen many cases like this on brevilles, the black coating is some kind of non stick layer that ends up like this eventually, breville stated that it's still safe to use at this state. As a bambino plus user I will never consider a breville machine after seeing this, even on their best machines

This or that? Comparing Breville espresso machines
The letdown here is that Breville doesn't offer an otherwise advanced unit w/o a built in grinder. I find Breville grinders to be where costs are cut the most. They feel and sound cheap, and in my experience grind inconsistently. Now I have a DF54 and it's been a rock solid performer with my Bambino

Do Breville Barista models go up in quality with an increase in price? [$1000]
"Do models go up in quality with an increase in price?" No. They don't go up in quality with price. ""Is the Express internals quality the same as the pro or touch?" I'd say the Express Internals are better than the Pro or Touch as far as pulling shots. The Express uses a thermocoil system which is

Breville vs Ninja [Budget between $500-$700]
The express is a semi auto which means diving into making espresso and learning to pull shots. The luxe is closer to automatic. With your budget and just starting out, you sort of have to figure out your end goal. The Ninja can be more hands off and create a greater range of drinks with less experim

Sage Barista Pro (built-in Baratza grinder) – worth upgrading to a separate grinder?
I did almost like you did for my first setup I got a Breville Infuser and Baratza Encore ESP pro. Reason why I got the Infuser over BBP (Breville Bambino Plus) is because I wanted the expresso machine with PID controller for brewing temperature control so I could dial in all kinds of roast and it’s

Yet Another What Espresso Machine Post: [$2000]
This is the issue I had. https://www.reddit.com/r/espresso/comments/yja12h/found_a_metal_part_inside_the_foam_nozzle_of_my/ I fixed it exactly as it was put together (I even temporarily borrowed another Bambino Plus to ensure each washer/fitting was put back in the same place). Granted, it lasted me 3 years

Does this sound right?
My Breville bambino plus cleaning disk doesn’t have a hole.

What’s everyone’s “go to” latte art?
Lmao, whatever comes out. Most days I’m lucky if I get any milk to float on top (usually the milk just sinks to the bottom, despite looking decently textured after I steam it and even when I pour.) On a really good day, it’s this, and only because that’s all I can seem to do: I just like, wish that

Oracle Jet vs Bambino (+ Breville grinder) — or something else? [$1500]
yeah thinking the same about the bambino. the grinder is where im stuck honestly, not sure which one is the right pick. breville was literally available at every store nearby so thats why i was leaning that way, but now that i know its not a good option im not really considering it anymore. chatgpt
