Smart Grinder Pro

Keep the Bambino, buy a better grinder. Edit: additional information Consider what you want out of your espresso experience and how much time investment you're intending to put into things. A nicer espresso machine will have better temperature stability, likely because you're trading thermoblock for

Lance was one person who taught me to think, and challenge, when it comes to coffee. I spent many years trying to learn from internet forums before starting to think for myself lol. Find me the actual scientific proof that WDT matters. (You won't be able to, at least in a fashion where a human can t

Not everyone is experiencing what I’m experiencing I’m just saying that a good grinder is a must If I was still using the Breville SGP then I would have to WDT the hell out of it because the clumps are ridiculous I bought a Rancilio stile and it’s literally clump free

I have both the smart grinder and the encore esp. The smart grinder is better. Anyone that says otherwise doesn't have a direct comparison .

I have enjoyed it so far but struggle understanding what the setting targets should be… What should the timing

Inconsistency for me has always been just forgetting to finish counting how many seconds I was supposed to brew in my Aeropress. Aeropress + Breville Smart Grinder Pro has been the most consistent tools tho. And ofc, a good temperature variable kettle that adjusts to exact celsius degree.

Smart Grinder Pro will work and it's comfy with Breville gear, mais niveau constance pour l'espresso pur c'est pas le top comparé à un Sette ou un Mignon. If you can stretch or buy used, look at a Baratza Sette 270 (great for espresso) or an Eureka Mignon model — both have better shot-to-shot stabil
