Meine erste eigene Maschine!

Exakt, die ganze Epidermie mit den 'kalibrierten' Tampern ist eine Plage. Das wichtige ist zu tampen, bis der Puck halt gepresst ist und der tamper sich nicht mehr bewegt. Und das waagerecht, nicht schräg. Das kann jeder normale tamper, wichtiger ist eher Ergonomie und, dass weniger Luft zum Sieb se

Sage Barista Pro (built-in Baratza grinder) – worth upgrading to a separate grinder?

Ooowww, now this interesting! Seriously consider this before you decide! I have a profited go and a mignon sdp, and my good childhood friend, AND door to door neighbour (I live in an apartment building) has a breville barista express impress (the one with grinder and tamper). We decided to do some c

Express Impress vs. Touch vs. Pro

I was in a similar boat and researched all these models, too. I ended up getting a Touch for a few reasons: Auto milk frothing: This has been really helpful because as a person who has never brewed my own coffee other than k-cups, I could just focus on learning how to dial in the expresso first and

Lelit MaraX or Breville Bambino Plus for a novice that likes nice things? [budget 2k]

In your circumstance…. Very hard decision. For taste… I can confirm that HX machine (Mara X) will give better coffees (I upgraded to HX machine from barista express impress). Other things… you just said you have kids… HX machine e61 groupset is very hot. If your kids touch the head firmly, it might

What's the advantage of an expensive machine? [$1000 and up]

Here is my experience. When I had Breville barista express impress. Back to back shots are hard. Still I was managing to have decent shots (such as warmup machine for 20min, warm portafilter and manual mode to extract:pre-infusion). I decided to upgrade my BBE impress to HX e61 machine. I already sa

HiBREW H10 Plus vs Breville Bambino Pro — Which combo with DF54/G5 for best espresso flavor? [Budget ~30–55k PHP or 600-980USD]

I would go to h10 plus and grinder. I have the h10 plus + G5 and Breville barista express impress. My shots on h10 plus + G5 are more consistent.

Buy a only a standalone grinder or complete set? [800]

I had Breville barista express impress. I used cheap beans then started to use local roaster beans. I felt I drank trash coffee for entire my life time haha then I started to drink lighter roasted beans then I saw the limit from built in grinder. It struggled to grind and making huge noises. I thoug

Persistent Channeling Issues [Bambino Plus, Timemore 078s]

I have a Sage Barista Express Impress that also spit like yours doing. I changed the grouphead gasket steam ring and it did't stop. After removing the shower head I saw that the group head gasket start to peel off like this one from the link. https://www.reddit.com/r/espresso/comments/1pqq6zr/crumbl

Keep or return? [$200 vs $499]

I returned the Breville Barista Express impress and got the ninja luxe pro. I’m able to pull shots and 9/10 times they’re good shots. The Breville is too much work in my opinion.. I went through 2 bags of espresso. Not only that but I shouldn’t have to buy multiple accessories for the Breville just

Should I upgrade? [$1,100]

Like i said, the niche is a sidegrade over the integrated grinder. It's weak at light roasts and fine grinds, and accordingly to a commenter here, coarse grinds as well. It's a fantastic bit of kit for dark roasts, and moka, and french press, yeah, but that's about it ... Once you want medium light
