The things others here are saying (puck prep, grinder, etc.) are certainly applicable, but a lesser known factor is pressure. A lot of Breville machines (aside from the Dual Boiler) have an issue where the pressure hitting the puck is far, far higher than the claimed 9 bar figure. The over-pressure

Breville dose control pro 🤣🤣 Pairing that with a BDB has got to be like having a Ferrari and putting 87 octane in it

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

I have a breville dual boiler, however I haven't used it since I got the Robot... I initially got it as a fun toy, but since it's easier to use + tastes better, I stopped using my actually expensive machine for espresso.

Save up more for a Breville Dual Boiler, Lelit Elizabeth, Silvia Pro X, or Profitec Move. This is what it is going to take to solve your problems.

From a Facebook BDB group that gets these photos often, many people have said Breville calls it "normal" and won't fix them. Mine is starting to bubble so I'm saving up for a new machine that isn't Breville. The BDB is so good, but things like this make me have a tinge of regret buying it. The next

The thing is, you’re out of warranty. And you don’t know how much is wrong with the machine. Given that it was used in a coffee shop for several years (not advisable), you’ve gotta assume that it’s overdue for a proper service and probably some major parts replacement. If you’re more ’handy’ than th

no hot water, let me spend 3k and fix that. lol. just get an old breville dual boiler if youre really itching to spend.
