Is Breville a good or bad place to start for a beginner? [$1000]

Breville’s great, though most people here won’t recommend a machine with a built in grinder. That one comes with a Smart Grinder Pro, which is great for most bean types specially if you’re into Italian espresso/based drinks. You could go for a Bambino Plus and spend the rest ($600ish) on a much bett

I have the breville smart grinder pro, while not nearly as good as the df54, it’s a very acceptable espresso grinder and costs like 220 cad. Do not buy pre ground, the difference is quite significant.

I haven’t heard anyone talk about the Shardor 64mm flat burr grinder, is this insane?

I have had 3 Shardor grinders, 2 of them being the model shown, one being a replacement for a cheaper one, the third being a replacement for the second. The first 2 lasted less than 6 months in combined total, and the third showed signs of exhaustion on speciality coffees, at which point i moved up

Gonna have to agree with the husband on getting a Grinder, however you dont need to spend $500. We have a Breville Smart Grinder Pro, its half that cost and we love it. Made a very noticeable difference in the quality of shots we are able to pull with our Breville Bambino Plus. Neither of these mach

This grinder is amazing

I'll just stick with my Breville Smart Grinder Pro with single dose mod. It does a fantastic job for a lot less money.

Where can I get quality ground coffee?

For drip coffee, I wouldn't get anything cheaper than the OXO conical burr grinder: https://www.amazon.ca/Brew-Conical-Burr-Coffee-Grinder/dp/B0CM9Z6HYF Edit: Wait wait this one's cheaper and also a real burr grinder! https://www.amazon.ca/Bodum-Bistro-Electric-Coffee-Grinder/dp/B0043095WW If you're

Sundays are for playing at home

For this machine, I've used a Breville SGP grinder, and it works very well with a medium/dark roast coffee at grind level 6, with a naked portafilter. But currently, I prefer to use it with a hand grinder.

Breville Bambino Help and Local Espresso Beans Needed

Use beans from "Beanery" , buy their organic espresso beans. They sell 1/2 pound. Buy Breville smart grinder pro and grind them at Number 9 or lower. Espresso will come out.

Beginner Machine Recommendations [$500-1k]

Breville bambino and SGP. I wouldn’t worry about the nitpickers, I have this setup and consistently outperform any of my local shops with delicious coffee every morning. The setup is solid and can be had for relatively cheap. I’m not convinced that the incremental gains beyond this setup are worth t
