Coffee Machine recs

hi! I am not sure if your Mom is the type that just wants a cup of brewed coffee, or, likes espresso. I like the option to pull espresso shots and steam milk with the same machine, and make lattes/cappuccino at home. I waited awhile to get one I thought was perfect - and truly have found my own cup

What is the one purchase you have made under €500 that has changed your life?

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

Tell me the best story you have about buying something for your kitchen

I don't have a great story, but a year and a half ago, my husband bought a Breville Barista Touch Impress espresso machine during Black Friday. I thought it was a waste of $800. Damn if I don't use that thing every single day.

Financial independence starts with small wins, here’s how a coffee machine accidentally changed my spending

I also have 2 coffees a day. I have a Breville bean to cup machine that I purchased in 2017. I buy a 1 kg bag of beans for $18 (used to be $11 for years) and it lasts me about 2 months. With the Barista touch you aren't sacrificing quality by making it at home. Most of the time my coffees are better

Oracle Jet or Barista Touch Impress

The price difference between the Breville Barista Touch Impress and the Breville Oracle Jet is pretty hard to overlook. The Touch Impress usually sells for around $1,500, while the Oracle Jet tends to land in the $2,800–$3,000 range. That’s roughly a $1,300–$1,500 jump, and for most home users the u

If cash wasn’t an issue- would you recommend this as a beginner machine

Yeah it’s a very simple machine to use. You’ll just need a good grinder since the Breville is just barely adequate. I used a Breville Barista Touch for 8 years before I found its limits.

The new setup: Profitec Move + Mazzer Philos (I189D)

I've only experienced the Breville Barista Touch as my other espresso machine, so that's what I know. The Move compared to the BBT is miles and away much better quality. It feels prosumer, whereas the BBT felt staunchly consumer. The espresso from the Move tastes so good with such great body, but th

"Low End" Machine Hunt [$700]

Yeah. Marketplace is a good starting point for them. However just this week I splurged and upgraded my machine. Haven’t had the time to post officially yet. It’s a Breville Barista Touch plus a bunch of accessories that make the workflow more enjoyable. If you’re interested in some photos / video /

Is a moka pot your only coffee brewer?

I have a breville barista touch and a bambino plus ($1000 and $500). I only ever use my 3 cup bialetti ($30) and the milk frother of one of the machines. the barista touch has a grinder, frother and touch screen and you can adjust the grind size, timing of brew, customize certain settings for differ

Espresso setup for a beginner. Prefer a great workflow. Preferably under $1200 USD max $1500[$1500]

Bambino Plus ($400 on sale) and a Baratza Encore ESP Pro ($300) would get you all the functionality you would need. You could go with a Breville Barista Touch (the minimum Breville Barista machine that has thermojet auto milk) but we don’t typically like built-in grinders here since the grinder wi
