Title: There’s a reason it’s so popular (edited)
Review: Small footprint is great for a machine with a pump that makes such great tasting espresso.It’s ready to brew or steam in an instant. The auto froth feature works perfectly and isn’t any louder than frothing will necessarily be.They ought to call it the Maialino and paint it pink from the cute little “oink-oink” noises the pump makes. 🥰The lighter weight of it makes it necessary to brace the machine with one hand while removing the porta filtre with the other.Reservoir is easy to refill, even without removing it from the machine (which is also an option) but be careful as the opening is flush with the top of the machine; if you’ve got demitasse or a tamper up there, they’re prone to falling in. Ask me how I know 🙄.The auto-clean feature for the steam wand is nice in keeping it cleared out and, for idiot proof avoidance of a clogged wand, probably better to have than not, but it can be a little annoying because it clears automatically whenever you retract the wand back into operating position after removing the pitcher from a steam. If you forgot and put it right back down into the next pitcher, you’ll get flush water in your next milk 😜. Also, it tends to fill up the catch pan after a few uses. What I do is put my wipe rag over the grate of the catch pan before lowering the wand to flush so the rag soaks up the flush water and then I have a hot damp rag to wipe off the wand.All in all, it’s a simple, compact, quality espresso machine.7/23/24 edit: had to do the automated clean cycle and had my first encounter with breville’s weird support setup. Their own video was inaccurate on how to initiate the clean cycle (found the solution on Reddit) and there’s no way to provide them feedback on the info error without having a breville account to log in or taking time to call, neither of which I’m messing with. It’s a bit of a convenience fail. Sorry if that makes me a bit of a Princess Karen. Still an awesome machine.

Title: Love it
Review: I’ve had a barista express for about five years and have loved it. But I live in a tiny house and it takes up a lot of counter space, so I thought I’d try this one. I thought I might be trading in some quality for extra space, but I’m surprised to find that I actually think this makes better coffee than the barista express. it fits in my space perfectly, and I can put my grinder next to it, and both of them take up less space together then the Barista Express alone. Since I started roasting my own beans and got a special grinder, I no longer need the grinder on the barista express. With this new Breville bambino plus, I make better quality coffee and better quality froth than I ever did on the barista express. And the ease of use is so much better. Of course, the drip pan is smaller and I empty it out after each use. That’s no big deal. I can’t believe that this makes a better quality of espresso and foam, I just can’t. But it is true. I love this little Bambino. I’m selling my barista express if anyone’s interested. Lol.

Here's why this machine has exceeded my expectations:Sleek Design: The brushed stainless steel finish gives the Bambino Plus a sleek and modern look that complements any kitchen decor.

The pre-infusion function ensures even extraction, while the automatic steam wand creates velvety microfoam for perfect lattes and cappuccinos every time.Quick Heat-Up Time: With its innovative ThermoJet heating system, the Bambino Plus reaches optimal brewing temperature in just 3 seconds, allowing me to enjoy my favorite espresso drinks without the wait.Easy Maintenance: Cleaning and maintenance are a breeze with the Bambino Plus. The steam wand automatically purges after each use, and the removable drip tray and water tank make it easy to keep the machine clean and well-maintained.Overall, the Breville Bambino Plus Espresso Machine is a game-changer for beginner espresso enthusiasts. Its combination of sleek design, user-friendly interface, consistent results, quick heat-up time, and easy maintenance make it a standout choice for home baristas.

Review: I’ve been loving this espresso machine! Unfortunately the steam wand stopped working properly after having it for about 70 days. I did everything the manual said to try and fix the problem but nothing was working. I contacted Amazon and they kindly sent me a replacement. So far no problems! 🙂

Review: Desde hacía meses estaba buscando una cafetera nueva para sustituir una Krups Gusto. Vi de todos tipos, desde las Oster de gama baja hasta las DeLongi superautomáticas. Ninguna me convencía porque no quería gastarme un dineral pero también quería una cafetera que diera una buena experiencia del café.La Bambino Plus cumple por mucho con su propósito. Entrega una taza bastante correcta, mejor que muchas cafeterías que no son de especialidad. La extracción es buena y la crema es consistente y duradera. La espuma de la leche es bastante buena y sedosa; ahora mismo estoy tratando de aprender arte latte.La cafetera es sencilla de usar. Seleccionas carga sencilla o doble de expreso y la máquina hace el resto. El espumador se puede usar de forma manual pero la función automática trabaja bastante bien y puedes escoger la temperatura y textura de la leche.Hay que jugar con la Bambino Plus los primeros días. Tienes que probar distintos tipos de molido hasta obtener el que buscas. Si es muy grueso, la extracción será pobre, aguada y sin crema. Si es demasiado fino entonces el agua no pasará porque la canastilla estará tapada. Con la leche es lo mismo: es importante probar con distintos tipos hasta encontrar la textura que buscas -la recomendación es que sea lo más entera posible y de preferencia esté fría-. Eso sí, la barita espumadora es bastante sensible. Si no la limpias al momento, la leche se seca muy rápido y tapa los orificios, que son realmente pequeños. Cuando notas que ya no espuma bien es momento de limpiarla a profundidad.La caja incluye varios accesorios de muy buena calidad, desde un portafiltros robusto con cuatro canastillas distintas hasta el tamper y una herramienta para asegurarse que la dosis de café es la correcta. También viene con pastillas de limpieza y descalcificador.Hasta ahora, el único punto negativo que encuentro es el precio. Aunque yo la encontré con descuento, se trata de cualquier forma de un gasto mayor. Ciertamente hay cafeteras que cuestan cuatro o cinco veces más y esta se encuentra en un rango intermedio de precios. Dependerá de la durabilidad del producto para saber si valió la pena.

Review: This is our second one that was sent out as a replacement. The first one wasn't working correctly within the first month and returned it.This one seems fine at the moment and makes an excellent cappuccino. We also have the Smart grinder.It doesn't come with a single wall basket which you will have to order separately to make the perfect shot.

Review: Très très mauvaise machine. Mauvais café, lait épouvantable et en plus, il faut en mettre beaucoup trop dans le godet pour un simple latte ou cappuccino... Une cafetière pour les amateurs, pour ceux qui boivent du café en pods, ou dieu sait quoi, mais vraiment pas digne d'un vrai amateur de bon café. Je suis d'autant plus déçu que Breville, habituellement, fait d'excellents produits...

Review: Me encanta que tenga preinfusion y que la OPV esté ajustada a 9 bar. Es fascinante que en 3 segundos se encuentre lista y es sumamente practico que en 3-5 segundos pueda pasar al vapor, y texturizar 200ml en aprox 35 segundos. Hay excelentes accesorios aftermarket (cestas y mampara de ducha IMS, tampers de precisión, WDT) que la complementan. Es excelente para quienes siempre llevamos prisa porque hace un latte en menos de 2 minutos desde que se prende la máquina. El único contra que le veo es la bandeja de goteo muy pequeña, pero le doy 5 estrellas. Espero me dure más de 2 años.
