Barista Express

I HIGHLY rate the Breville Bambino. It has higher pressure steam than my parents Barista express, produces great coffee once dialed in and takes up significantly less room. You will wanna get a seperate portafilter and tamper because the ones the come with are trash. It’s also pretty light so takes

I have no idea about wattage converting or warranty claims in south east Asia but out of these two machines the Breville is higher quality and will make better coffee. That said, as someone with a Breville Barista Express, if I were purchasing an entry level espresso machine again I would get a Brev

Probably not as much as the grinder. I’d say the biggest difference is Mara pulls more consistent shots with a slightly better flavour, has a lot more powerful steam wand which you can use while pulling a shot. It steams milk in no time (took a bit of time to get used to that after BBE). I think if

I used to own a Barista Express, and found it's built-in grinder to be exceedingly messy. If you were to use yours with a separate grinder, that will solve your mess problem. Breville/Sage 54mm is super popular, and aftermarket baskets in that size are available from most major brands. I'm guessing

its a 10oz pitcher from slow pour supply. i guess my issue is that the steam wand isn’t long enough to reach a smaller amount of milk. i have a breville barista express and its somewhat difficult to steam a small amount without having to fill more

Depends on the machine, depends on the pressure. Depends on the temperature, depends on the holes pushing it out. At work the simonelle is more like 3s for a cap because it's so damn strong on the steam. And switching between the home Silvia and it I would regularly go over temp because it heated th

I've owned 2x Barista Express machines (still have one) and 1x Breville Dual Boiler. The Dual Boiler was significantly better to use than the Express but unreliable. It completely broke down twice, and the repair cost was going to be higher than a new Barista Express so I sold it for parts and bough

I’ve seen some posts about a summer release…. I have an ES1 and love it. Huge upgrade from my Breville barista express. Steam power is a night and day difference.

Are you steaming milk? If so, as the BBE is a single boiler thermoblock system, you might find, like most of those type, the boiler has to super heat for steam and it can take up to 15 minutes apparently for these machines to get back to brew temperature. Your water is too hot to brew. If that is th

I chose option 1. Just because it was my first ever espressomachine and i wanted to find out if it was something for me. This was 1 year ago and now i regret not going for option 2. I have the Breville Barista Express. The steam wand takes some time getting used to, but it does the job. I’ve never h
