Bambino Plus

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’m super new and bought a Breville Bambino Plus. I love it lol. However, I have to upgrade my grinder haha.

Breville bambino plus + lagom casa. Seeing as that he has kids, a quieter grinder that grinds fast would be nice.

The semi-automatic and fully manual machines discussed in this sub are for hobbyists who prioritize the ability to "experiment with flavor" over "ease of use".

I’ve played with a lot of coffee equipment over the years. While I don’t have a breville on my coffee bar, I really like them!

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

It depends on her personality and what she likes to do. There are some coffee machines in your price range where you can tinker with every detail (Gaggia Classic Pro E24 would be a good one for that) or even levers like the Flair 58 if she drinks mainly black coffee. But if she just wants to make co

I'm in the US and the brand is called Breville, but it's exactly the same, just called Sage in Ireland. It depends on your level of commitment. Personally I went with the Bamino Plus and got a half decent grinder (DF54 or Baratza Encore). The Bambino or Bambino Plus are more entry level, compared to
