First impressions of my new espresso coffee machine. Italian, Bezzera BZ10 Espresso Machine. Finding a good coffee while on a 4WD or motorcycle adventure tour is not an easy task. Also difficult when your old espresso machine packs up. My Sunbeam Cafeseries Espresso machine gave up the ghost, so internet shopping I went. The supplier, orders online is:
www.dipacci.com.au
Bezzera website is:
www.bezzera.it
What do you do to get a good coffee when on you are traveling?

Big thanks for sharing this. This seems to be a great machine.

[@Adventure8]

Yes I recommend it. Please do subscribe to my channel. A new video will be released this week, 1 year on using the Bezzera BZ10. Hope you like it also.

[@jakevan1969]

Good one. Love the polished steel and steam combination!

[@Adventure8]

Thank you very much!

[@rehabmax]

Looks like a winner, Thanks for the review,

[@Adventure8]

Thanks for watching!

[@Gijserklh]

A few things to learn about the technics of espresso making but it’s a nice machine!

[@Adventure8]

Thanks for watching

[@liazalums-zedaxistv8348]

Outstanding Performance!

Great video, I’d upgrade the grinder to take your coffee to a whole new level. The machine you’ve bought won’t necessarily make your coffee taste better on its own. Paired with a good grinder, different story: mind blowing. Thanks for sharing your experience

[@Adventure8]

Gippsland Video : yes agreed. The grind surely accounts for 50% if not more towards a successful brew. Will Xmas come early this year. Any recommendations?

[@iggyman83]

Griniflix - Adventure8 I upgraded from a built in breville one to a Macap M4D and even on the breville unit noticed a huge improvement in flavour in cup, so I’d highly recommend Macap based on my experience. But I think circa $1000 you’re buying quality regardless of brand - they’re all built well and will likely do 300kgs per set of burrs, with replacements costing around $50-$70 a set. Probably more relevant to ask about what features you’d want: do you want it to have timed dosage? A doser or doserless (‘grind on demand’ - suits my needs as it’s just my wife and I). I’d also make sure it’s micrometric (non-stepped to allow for small changes). Good luck - where I live there is a coffee shop that has good quality second hand ones. Call around local espresso shops to see if they have a range of new and used, as you might pick up a bargain

[@vcli1]

Great video! Just curious, what's your take on the machine 1 yr on? I'm deciding between this and the Rocket Apartamento but don't know anyone with first hand experience with the BZ10

[@Adventure8]

Perfect timing. I am releasing Bezzera BZ10 - one year on video next week. Please subscribe if you haven't already so you get notified. Glad you liked the video

[@utubeski42]

Hmmm,... motorbikes and coffee machines hey? nice.... thanks for the vid... Although if you're loving that machine, maybe think about a grinder? I've inherited that model sunbeam and it's only good for stovetop.... no where near consistent and cool enough for that class machine... look for a large flat burr, the retailer you got that machine from will point you in the right direction! happy (caffeinated) trails!

[@Adventure8]

utubeski42 : I had to modify my Sunbeam grinder. Added a small washer on one side of the grinder so you can get a fine grind. I did the mod over 4 years ago and it’s been good ever since. I would image every Sunbeam owner would have the same problem.

[@johnemoreno]

I have the Bezzera bz10 but i can only reach 6bars. I have tryed dialing in the Grind size . I'm using fresh beans Single Origin killer bee. Have done a back flush and reaching 12bars no problem any advice thanks in advance John. Ps I'm using the double basket putting in 20 grams of fresh ground coffee!!!

[@Adventure8]

I find that also depending on the beans I use. The drier and more roasted the bean, the finer the grind needed. Some grinders can’t grind fine enough if the bean is too dry. Vittoria, Mountain Blend (sold in Australia), is an example of a really dry, dark roasted bean. I’ve switched to fresher, less roasted varieties, more expensive, more flavoursome beans. Can achieve a good pure. Having said that, 6 bar pressure is good for a dry bean in my opinion. Hope that helps

[@andresgil3035]

Do you think that it can works for a mini coffe shop ?

[@Adventure8]

Possibly, depending how many espressos you plan to make per hour, or however you need to measure your peak demand. You have to gauge customer waiting time and satisfaction level. Quality of coffee espresso is excellent. Speed of operation is great for domestic applications where you make 1-6 espressos on demand to cater for your dinner party. Hope that helps.

[@ThePathbauer]

What's the difference between this an the Bz 09s?

[@Adventure8]

The BZ10 has a boiling water tap in addition to the steamer tap. I think the BZ09 only has the steamer tap. Otherwise, similar.

[@fkrtna]

Hi Peter, I just got this BZ10 a week ago and wondering about the puck after extraction, how does it look in your end? mine comes soggy everytime with a little hole in middle due to the screw in the shower screen. putting ~17g in the double basket. I'm thinking to upgrade to bottomless portafilter with IMS basket and IMS shower screen and hopefully this issue disappear! Or is the high pressure of 11bar makes it like this with no pre-infusion..! thinking to change OPV to 10bar but not sure yet as opening the machine will invalidate the warranty. cheers

[@Adventure8]

fkrtna : put in more grind (coffee) and pack down. Experiment until you get a solid dry puck after extraction. Wet sloppy puck after extraction means not enough coffee grind. Hope that helps

[@Adventure8]

About to release another video on the BZ10, 1 year on. Also, I would really appreciate you subscribing to my channel if you haven't already done so. Hope to get out more videos soon. Thanks Peter

[@solocyclist3993]

Just bought a bz10 and it lasted 2 days. The boiler kacked up and makes no coffee. I have returned the bz10 and will be getting a new one. I am not impressed yet with this brand and especially on the reviews this machine has. Bought it on appliances online and these guys have one more chance with the next one they send out.

[@Manumtadum]

This is a perfect demonstration video. Tested and presented the equipment.

[@homaeineia]

A latte cup is more better for making a clip.

[@Adventure8]

A clear cup I presume, so you can see the creme etc. I agree. I'll have to have another attempt at making a creative espresso video.

[@shayn17]

Very bad froth milk. Worst technic i ever seen. No colling flush before you pour your espresso.

[@LK-hd5ct]

As far as I know, this brewing unit doesn't really need that, as it's heated electrically. Unlike the e61, which is heated by the boiler. That's why it heats up MUCH faster than most other machines.

[@Adventure8]

👍

[@10pictures4you-fabix8]

43 seconds extraction time, way too much. No flushing before extraction. Very weird frothing technique and no latte art. Too bad for such a good machine.

[@Adventure8]

10Pictures4you - fabix : i agree. Shit barrister, great machine. Glad you watched. Hopefully my adventure travel and property investment education is better. Cheers

[@10pictures4you-fabix8]

[@danaltaras1095]

But why in a plastic cup, why??

[@danaltaras1095]

Or, does it only look like a plastic cup? O_o

[@LK-hd5ct]

@@danaltaras1095 Just looks like it.

[@_Argos]

@@danaltaras1095 @ 2:48 you can hear that it is made of porcelain, looks nice ^^

[@Adventure8]

Dan Altaras : they are actually French made China clay cups, specifically designed to look like crushed plastic cups. They fit perfectly into your hand. Brilliant design

[@johnwilliams7999]

the machine comes with ermmm.....two ....handles lol

[@Adventure8]

Yes, 2 portafilter handles are provided with the Buzzera BZ10.
