Bambino Plus

I've seen many cases like this on brevilles, the black coating is some kind of non stick layer that ends up like this eventually, breville stated that it's still safe to use at this state. As a bambino plus user I will never consider a breville machine after seeing this, even on their best machines

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

It died within nine months and Breville wanted more than we paid for it to send it to them to get fixed. Nowadays, I only buy something if I know for sure that parts are av

Nissan Altima: Breville Bambino Plus

I had a Breville Bambino plus that I learned to make espresso on, and I got rid of it for the exact same reason (plastic in brew path), plus I learned that I was interested in more control and experimentation. So I got a robot (non barista version). And kept the Baratza Encore ESP that I already had

Those two qualities are opposites, as the quality gets better with less electronics and automation, which are the things that really help with ease of use. Personally at your budget, I'd probably go for the De'longhi Stilosa EC230 that Lance Hedrick among many others have review very favourably and

I had a Bambino Plus before the Go. It was my first machine that I used for 2 years... And I would regularly clean it. The pump started becoming gradually weaker as time progressed so I got rid of it. It's a starter machine so perhaps not directly translatable of an anecdotal experience to higher en

The direction appears in my Breville Bambino Plus paper manual that came with my machine, but I think that Breville either never implemented the feature or got rid of it.
