Oracle Dual Boiler

Honestly, it sounds like an awful idea. People may say they're keen to learn now, but the number who stay interested will quickly fall off. You'd probably be much better off getting a Jura, or some other quality superautomatic. The people who can't be bothered will be happier, and the people that co

Honestly the best option here is probably to just get one of the Breville machines that grinds & tamps for you Edit: it would be a great excuse to spend 3k on the oracle dual boiler is all I’m sayin

"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

I highly recommend NOT to get the Oracle -> Instead just get a Breville Dual Boiler for a lot less. It's the identical machine minus the (poor quality) grinding and dosing things. I was in your shoes many years ago and owned an Oracle. Within a couple of years I was running a separate grinder, prepp

As an appliance sales person and amateur Barista, I absolutely detest built-in coffee machines. Unreliable and finicky is one thing, but the coffee is just not as good as a machine for a quarter of the price. If you can somehow convince him, the Breville (or Sage if you're in the UK) Oracle Dual Boi

Yeah, would likely buy it again. It was really between this and the Oracle Dual Boiler or Jet. They both look great, but really liking the workflow for this one. My partner also wants something no fuss so having the automated coffee output weight scale is really nice. Didn't look at the fellow 1 too

The Oracle really is a Breville Dual Boiler (BDB) married to a (lousy) builtin grinder, (terrific) auto-tamper, and auto/manual-milk-frother. The BDB has a massive following and most people agree that it's really hard to beat its features for the price. Breville is very clever with their UX and it i

The OG Breville Dual Boiler costs $1600 compared to the new Oracle Dual Boiler at $3000. The OG BDB paired with a grinder in the $1000+ range would be a much better setup than the Oracle which suffers from a grinder similar to the $200 Baratza ESP Pro. When brewing espresso, the grinder is much more

You get a lot of tech and a pretty good experience. I didn't watch this video but is also worth looking. ht

I have Bianca, a recent upgrade from Breville Oracle (dual boiler). I use flow control a lot. I save or enhance my shot daily. So much so, it just occurred to me , like…just now , that perhaps I have the wrong grind setting, but I can make up for it using flow control. lol
