Unboxing the most popular home espresso machine

[@SimonJamesCarter]

I’ve had mine for about 5 years and it’s the best thing I’ve ever bought. Proper barista style coffee at home. I love my machine

[@Goldenbrown.coffee]

That’s a good run

[@Swimmingforlife.]

@@Goldenbrown.coffee he better pray that it doesn’t breakdown, costly machine to get repaired.

[@dannyjc3930]

​@@Swimmingforlife.If you can find the parts.

[@JuanPereZ-ji1op]

How much did it cost ??? Can you share Link to it please ty

[@bojned]

​@@JuanPereZ-ji1op550e in Ireland... Bought it a month ago.

[@mx_nana_banana]

breville being an australian company makes my aussie heart proud.

[@RK-oc8lw]

It's great 👍🏼

[@julianmenes5605]

Really? 🤯

[@yeseniamuniz01]

Mine says, "Made in China"🤷🏽‍♀️ At that point, it doesn't matter where it was designed.

[@yeseniamuniz01]

@alinaqirizvi1441 I just don't feel comfortable that the world depends on China for a lot of the products, if you know, you know🤷🏽‍♀️.

I have this machine, had it about 10 years… had to replace a seal in it maybe 5 years ago, it started leaking whenever I tried to make coffee. Emptied it, turned it upside down and unscrewed something and pulled out a damaged seal. Found a new one on eBay for like $30 and boom! Back in the game! Paid like $800 for this thing and can’t believe how great it has been.

[@julyoon]

Bought this for 350€ (it was new but had a scratch so they sold it for waaay cheaper) and I believe I got a great deal. The espresso rabbit hole is a deep one though and I've already spent like another 200€ for accessories. I do make banging coffee drinks now.

[@cs5250]

Regarding the steaming temperature. A good rule of thumb is to stop steaming milk when it becomes too hot to touch. So you hold the bottom of the pitcher with one hand while the other hand controls angles.

[@ass139]

I had this machine for about 17 years best thing ever

[@legendarycat9084]

I am very happy I decided to buy this machine as my first espresso machine. It works really well.

[@haoslife_mo]

Just got not long ago and love this machine! Want to have more tutorial about the machine, thank you !

[@Enrajpu762]

Could you kindly do a tutorial on grind size adjusting AND THEN ALSO adjusting grind amount on this machine! I think this is where I’m getting stuck! Thanks!

[@tashodonnell86]

I second this! I have to stick to the one brand of beans that i know works otherwise i waste SO many beans just trying to figure out which grind setting is the best 😅

[@cl8956]

I wasted a whole bag of beans today just to produce some of the worst shots I’ve ever had

[@ajam3086]

Every bean is different some produce more oils and also you can additionally adjust under the lid near water tank

[@mattypants]

I think it's odd the express comes with the dosing cup but the better model that's $400 more does not. I was mildly annoyed when I had to spend 25 on a dosing cup and the milk cup doesn't have a thermometer built in either. Took absolutely forever to calibrate, but does make some amazing espresso.

[@sethfrancissimracing7558]

It comes with a dosing cup, just the funnel. Also I just bought one of these two weeks ago and it did not come with the temp sensing cup. He purchased that separately or Breville sent it special for him.

[@mattypants]

@@sethfrancissimracing7558 mine did not come with a dosing cup, it didn't really com with anything. 2 portifilter screens, the basic milk frothing cup, and 1 round of cleaning tabs.

[@stevebowling6376]

Bought mine for $300 almost brand new 8 yrs ago. Best thing I've ever bought!

[@Cowboy210z]

Had mine for years and it’s a workhorse, super durable. I upgraded the knob to an aluminum lever for the steaming wand. Works amazing

[@ashwathyprasad4823]

My dream machine!

[@simonmckenzie6228]

Have had 2 of these machines (1 at my workshop and 1 at home) for over 10 years and with regular cleans we've never had any dramas just great coffee

[@c.5536]

If you look at the oil composition of Coffee, its safer to extract at 86°C particularly depending on the roast. The USDA does a great job listing the oils present in Coffee beans. Breville Espress Espresso machine is a great place to start. I already own a seperate Breville grinder. Ive have some time puzzling over form and function for coffee drinks. Im glad I finally discovered their necessary nutritional needs. Its not just a look. Its art and nutrition. Wonderful. Im glad I started with the Breville Express Expresso machine. Its helped me appreciate the rest of my coffee (and gastronomic) journey. I would never have understood unless I started with the basics.

[@user-ul2lu3jf8l]

Can you expound on the oils?

[@ImpeachmentChamp]

Explaining where the needle should be on the espresso gauge when pulling your shot would be nice.

[@rbmgf71]

I have one of these at work. It's actually a decent machine. I kinda get jealous because it can be pretty consistent with the pull whereas my "nicer" setup at home can struggle sometimes.

[@lacriboy]

I found that my machine started to struggle with the the actual coffe making. Water stream became very slow it shows full pressure gauge but coffe drips with little drops rather than a normal flow.

[@nihe2416]

Can you make a manual milk steaming guide for the sage/Breville barista touch; would be awesome 🤙🏽

[@ed4rd1]

A game changer would be if when grinding and dosing, it had a built in scale from where you attach the portafilter, to the grinder!

[@SashMuffin]

I actually recently got this machine in black. Would love to see what it can do!

[@robinmanktala8530]

It’s crazy how what is considered basic in the US costs ~90k INR in India. For context, that’s about 3.9k USD after adjusting for ppp

[@kivzzzz]

Thank you so much for this unboxing/review! It made my mind what my first espresso machine will be.

[@sarahzewatsky7521]

Ive had my machine for a couple of months now and i cant seem to figure out the right settings to pull a good shot of expresso. Could you make more videos about using this machine?

[@kcr15387]

Got the BBP and I hated the integrated grinder. Whole beans were constantly getting stuck. It was retaining a lot. I ended up purchasing the DF83 v2 grinder since it also had a hopper for the times I want to make cold brew.

[@Maybaby1959]

Also top burr adjustment

[@thecoffee2820]

Thanks for Sharing 👍

[@kingbuktu]

I would love to see a milk texturing how to on this machine

[@Goldenbrown.coffee]

I do have a video somewhere in my feed in it!

[@ntmiller13]

I'd love to see what you could do with a Breville Bambino!

[@normalmighty]

Had mine for years and I love it, but man I want that new milk jug and tamping guide!

[@julissacastro5249]

More tutorials of how to use the breville please 🫶🏼love your videos!!

[@jtixtlan]

I have a machine and I honestly don’t know how it works. I have made espresso with it that I use for cappuccino, and it tastes good to me. What is the purpose of the tamping, and do I need one of those screen disks on top after tamping, and what exactly is the machine doing that a pour-over doesn’t do? How and why is the machine applying pressure?

[@JPGdesigngroup]

Do you have any tutorials using the Breville Bambino?

[@Hammi4Real]

It's a bang for your buck yes, but now years later I'm kind of stuck with it awkwardly paired with a separate premium grinder. I try to ignore its built-in functional grinder but it just cramps up the top space too much. Still a solid espresso machine, just beware you grow out of it quickly as soon as you become certain about your newfound hobby. And the grinder gets weaker over time to the point of jamming, especially with light roast. Ah yes, it also retains old grounds. If you're simply pragmatic about coffee and just want to get on with your day, this is for you. But you never know though, you might get a taste for the good stuff later.

[@ashleybailey5473]

Can you use any portafilter with these? Or only the one it comes with

[@SuperFryn]

I have this machine and for the life of me i cant seem to get a decent cup of coffee. So far I've only been using supermarket quality of beans, as speciality beans here are insanely expensive. I follow the steps but the extraction is always disappointing. Is it possible to have nice supermarket coffee in this machine or should i just give up?

[@Abheehudani]

Hi, do you have link or name of the dosing guide. I am looking for it but I am not able to find it. Thank you !

[@justinhudson8510]

where do you buy the little cups from

[@HN-ol7oz]

mine same, run every single moring last 5 years, still going strong, just update the milk thermal jug that is all you need. The only missing is the auto temper (less mess lazy guy).

[@NTDang]

My bar gauge is dead after 2 years. Overall very happy with it, but would i but it again?

[@Fortuna272]

It's nice but I would still get the version without an integrated grinder and just buy a separate one. It's not as convenient, yeah, but then you're not locked in or stuck if the grinder in the machine breaks or you want to upgrade down the line.

[@lycantrophy024]

need some help. it seems theres no water coming out of the grouphead. when i press the single or double shot. but the hot water and steamer works fine.

[@steliosaelara]

How is it with simple espresso? Any advice on making a nice mellow espresso without acidity?

[@Goldenbrown.coffee]

- use a medium/dark roast - grind finer to increase extraction - raise the temperature if too sour

[@AnteUp34]

I have had mine for over 8 years

[@gabecruz1121]

The size grind you have it at 9 but how about the top inside where the coffe grinds

[@Mael135]

Can you let me know what do you think about the lelit pl41emi

[@inthebag84]

I recently got this machine. I use the double wall basket because I can't get the right amount of pressure when using the single wall. I only use fresh coffee and grind the beans. I'm curious what setting you have for the grind amount, do you keep it right at the halfway point? Also, my pucks come out super soggy afterwards, but everyone always seem to have pretty dry, dense pucks when I watch on the KZbins... anyway. I still love it, because it helps me make much better coffee than I ever have before, but those are some struggles I'm having currently.

[@Goldenbrown.coffee]

- single wall will always taste better and I’m sure we can help get it right. Just go to a way lower grind setting. I have mine on 7. If you find your getting to the finest settings (1-3) and it’s still running to fast, try adjusting the inner burr to a finer setting (look up how to do this on KZbin) - a soupy puck can mean a few things. Most likely it’s because your grind is too coarse due to the double walled basket. It can also happen when there isn’t enough coffee in the basket. Changing to single wall and finer grind will most likely help

[@millsykooksy4863]

I want one of these

[@foreveriron119]

Is this better than the Barista Max? I can't find the Barista express in spain 😢

[@fiogarofalo]

mine didnt come with the dosage funnel thing....is this an extra accesory maybe?

[@julienrobert3938]

Just receive one as birthday gift (best wife in the world). But i didn't get the plastic funel for grinding and i have coffeee all over the oalce...

[@c.5536]

What I dont like about this machine is that it doesn't allow for a necessary extraction temperature of 86° C. It only allows for 89 °C. At that temperature you may open yourself up to exposure to carcinogens especially if the beans are already burnt . The oils in the coffee beans require a lower temperature. The double broiler allows for a temperature of 86°C. Even though its more expensive as a machine, it seems like the best choice especially because the LED interface allows you to control the temperature much easier. I think Brevilles recommendation for using beans roasted within 5-20 days is ideal for coffee consumption all together. A medium to light roast may be the beginning in educating consumers about the importance of appropriate temperature so as to reduce carcinogenic exposure. People want fresh and appropriately prepared as much as possible for their health. Brevilles machines are a great start .

[@hipsterrblack]

I got one of these off Amazon and it didn’t come with the temperature gauge on the froth pitcher

Hey have you seen the Jleverespresso? It is a cross between the Flair and 9 Barista.

[@Goldenbrown.coffee]

I haven’t! I need to look it up

[@kg-Whatthehelliseventhat]

@@Goldenbrown.coffee Thank you for the reply. Please check it out. The manufacturer seems to put a lot of thought into the products they have and are developing. It would be nice to get the public more aware of the potential. Thank you so much for the latte art tips. I'm waiting for my milk jug to come but even still just using a saki glass my art is getting way better. Thank you.

[@brambles0077777777]

Love mine but I use fresh roasted beans and need to use the double wall or I get no extraction ????

[@Goldenbrown.coffee]

You just need to grind a lot finer with the single walled basket

[@Akbarali_Khabibullayev]

Very nice how much ?

[@sanjayjacob2604]

Hey I have this machine! What’s the proper amount of espresso and how I can get my extraction to be like yours? Mine is hitting the pre infusion stage and that’s it. I have tried tamping with 30lbs of pressure but still minimal results

[@okmarshall]

This machine seems to work best at about 19g of ground coffee in I find. Aim for the pressure to hit close to 12 o'clock on the pressure gauge. If you're below that then grind finer, above that/machine choking, then grind coarser. It should take 25-30 seconds for the double shot function to run through. For some of my beans I couldn't get the required pressure even on grind setting 1, so I changed the internal burr down one setting finer. Every grinder is different so there's no point telling grind settings, even for the same beans, you just have to play around to get the extraction time and pressure right.

[@Akillez]

"affordable" and then I check the price 💀😩

[@evamkaushik5392]

Oh that funnel! Somebody at Breville is a man of etiquettes.

[@tom4137]

Never understood how it became acceptable to add anything to coffee, such as milk. Coffee is perfect as is.

[@1physics]

...if "thermometer built into it" means a cheap sticker on the side of the metal jug then yes, yes it does. Everything about this machine is cheap and a compromise if you want to make great espresso

[@baba98052]

Save your money for a good machine.

[@mastercjofficial]

You kidding? I just got mine a month ago and it never came with a thermometer on the milk jug 😢

[@NyzmaKumala]

I hate that grinder soo much it has tons of retention i have to clean it everyday or coffee taste stale

[@mo4943]

Is it the same machine as sage ?

[@cichlisuite2]

Company started in Australia as Breville but had to change name in Europe due to another Breville company existing there so uses the name Sage for European products.
