I got the mr coffee espresso machine because I'm a college student and I'm not about to spend $400 on an espresso machine just yet lol. But I have to say it's still better than the drip coffee that I usually make. I could drink the espresso black and instead of tasting burned like what my drip coffee tastes like it just tastes like nice and strong coffee. I'll consider saving up for a nicer machine, but for now I'll stick with my $40 machine. Thanks for the comparison video
good for you! yes, this machine is perfect for a college student...
I am a college student as well. got a delonghi 15bar espresso machine for $90 served me for over two years now i am upgrading to the new chefman 6 in 1. this machines even if they are expensive at the beginning. they make up the price over time. i ll be spending at least $50 a month buying coffee instead it's 10/month on coffee beans now.
So u can’t grind the espresso in this machine I will have to put them in a blender first right ?? I wanna get this
@@astafzciba Delonghi makes a solid budget machine from what I have been seeing online. You can get a lot out of these home machines once you get to know how to use it.
Thank you for this video! I ended up buying this cheap little machine and it’s great for what I need it for (caffeine). I work in a hospital and there’s a Starbucks downstairs in our cafeteria that I always buy a 4 shot mocha and it costs like 5 dollars, and this is a way to save money. I work in surgery so I’m there early and late, and I’m a student as well so I need quick caffeine. It definitely isn’t the greatest espresso in the world, and I guarantee most people would call this a solid 1/5 machine, but for me it’s perfect. Quick caffeine, I can make my mochas at home for a fraction of the price, and I really don’t taste so much of a difference that I care too much. My palate is pretty weak lol.
If you’re a college student on a budget I would recommend it, but if you have some more money I’d say splurge a bit and get a higher quality machine, pretty much just as the video said to do. But I think this machine is perfect for me specifically: someone who doesn’t know what good coffee actually is and doesn’t want to spend 5-10 bucks a day at a cafe.
Videos like these are so important. Thank you for doing this!
Just a Dad review had no issues with the Mr Coffee one, worked perfect, go watch his video
I came across your video and it made me laugh. We have a breville barista Express, the $900 model (same innards as this one, just added grinder) which is one of our top five favorite possessions we own. Motor or pump broke and it's going in the mail to breville on Monday. In the meantime I bought this exact Mr espresso machine to substitute while our good machine is being repaired. Thanks for the review!!
You mentioned that the espresso from the Mr Coffee is a bit more bitter. Don’t forget, you added more coffee to the Mr Coffee. That can make the difference.
* * THIS IS IMPORTANT * *
The Mr. Coffee Espresso Machine manual states that you should fill the Portafilter with coffee to the desired line (2 or 4 shot), THEN press the coffee down. You had way too much coffee in the Mr. Coffee machine. The velocity of the steam through the coffee was too slow to get a good result.
so for half would the steam be too fast? 😏
I thought the same thing. Expresso: I don't think this review has much credibility since you don't know how operate the Mr Coffee machine properly.
But do they taste the same??? Thats what you missed tellin us haaa
I'm surprised this has so few views! I like how you show every step of it and you even use the same cup for comparison! I've never made anything other than instant coffee before, so I think I might get the Mr. Coffee and make some lattes and cappucinos (maybe some Americanos, but tbh I'm not as big of a fan of those for most kinds of coffee).
once you have fresh espresso / Amercano, you'll never go back!
I love espresso and I got the Mr Coffee one for my personal use. The silver one is restaurant quality overkill for someone living alone like me 😂
The Breville isn’t even close to commercial grade
I'd love to see the breville up against one of those 15 Bar machines that are for sale all over the place under different brand names (Mr. Coffee even has one). They are normally around $100 and they tend to make some really good shots if you know the machine and it has a Manuel extraction feature.
What is the temperature coming out of both machines ? Could that be the difference between bitter and smooth ? Why exactly was one bitter and one smooth ? What do you think causes it, technically, besides the price difference ?
You're supposed to take the black plastic cover off the steamer.
@Emily Hawz Yes - I have one and the only way to clean that part after usage is to take the black cap off; not a big deal, really, very easy on and off. BTW - as an espresso machine it is great.
I have this Mr Coffee machine and I have never gotten results like that! I don’t use a proper tamper, but I do press it down with the scooper. I’ve never gotten crema. It even tastes burnt sometimes. What am I doing wrong?
How about the espresso? amzn.to/3zOe5pW Lavazza gives me good results
Get a tamper bro makes a big difference, i had this machine before once I got a tamper it made a difference, plus it starts making crema around the 2 shot line , if you don’t pull it you won’t see hardly any by the time it hits 4
Get a good tamper, a needle stir and even a mesh screen. I have that machine and get excellent crema every day!
@@unocarb Excuse me sir, what tamper size do you recommend? Thanks..
@@wookieefer4468I use a 49-51mm tamper works well
Thanks for the video! I have a friend who likes to buy espresso from a local artisan shop, but he makes it in a drip machine. He just purchased his first home and I got this for him today as a housewarming gift because he hates people to spend money on him. So I thought 'well I'll just go as cheapie as I can'. 😂 It'll do the job I suppose. For now. 😈
That was very thoughtful of you! I'm sure your friend will appreciate the gift! 🎁
I had one that lasted about 3 1/2 years! For $40!
Mr coffee had metal shavings coming out of it even after cleaning several times like it says to in the manual. Very disappointing since the price point was great
I noticed that with mine! i’m scared to use it lol
@@kacecopeland1858 yeah I returned it and bought a different one, but not so happy with it either. At least no metal shavings though. Honestly besides the metal shavings issue, I really liked the mr coffee more than the capresso one I have
Hi
You're better off just getting a stovetop Moka pot. It will taste a lot better
yes and they even make an attachment that will produce thick crema. Planning on getting one of these for travel along with a frothing wand. Great suggestion I feel people overlook.
I love the mr coffee machine so far
You didn't need to correct yourself from calling the coffee in the portafilter to "espresso." It's not espresso as it is sitting there in your portafilter. It's coffee. The resulting liquid is espresso, or to be more exact espresso-brewed coffee.
Espresso Machine Farberware 20-Bar Espresso Maker, good coffee at a great price
?
@@CarsandEspresso good coffee at a great price
@@israelescamilla6527 I agree! th-cam.com/video/h8JkT301rD0/w-d-xo.html
You also added more coffee to the Mr. coffee
You forgot to do the milk steamer on the side of the mr. Coffee would have probably tasted better
Hey would love to know your thoughts on Mr. Coffee or entry level Nespresso machine??
If money is no issue... Nespresso...
@@CarsandEspresso thank you for taking the time to respond. As far as money, I would consider the 100 to be totally fine to start. But I didn’t know if you’d think the increase price of the capsules/worry about capsule freshness balanced out any of the positives.
Not $39.00 anymore.
How would you rate the Mr coffee ,5 stars being the best?
is there a zero star? I think I would rather go with Farberware model...
@@CarsandEspresso yeah I ended up returning it it wasn't good at all
Hey, I got the Mr. coffee machine
I am not able to get the creama on the top and just a normal black coffee drip
Kindly help!
Even though I used LavAzza Extra Crema Espresso beans, the Mr. Coffee machine doesn't create enough pressure (or any) to get the crema on top....
@@CarsandEspresso Thankyou so much for the response, the video was very useful.
Cheers!!
The correct term for pressing the coffee is tamping the coffee
What size is that tamper you bought for the mr coffee espresso machine because I am looking for one for my mr coffee and I don't know what size to get
Please help me my mr coffee espresso comes out WATERY AND LUKEWARM
i just want a good tasting ice latte with pumpkin syrup or caramel syrup will mr.coffeee work for me?
fortunately there are new cost effective options.... check out the farberware espresso machine.... th-cam.com/video/ids6fwj2wPY/w-d-xo.html
I think you're supposed to brew and froth at the same time.
No that’s only with a dual broiler, if you do that you don’t get enough pressure in the machine
Yeesh! For $39 you can probably get a moka pot, french press or an aeropress. All of these will get you much better coffee than the Mr. Coffee machine.
The whole point of espresso is that supposedly the high pressure water system extracts a superior and stronger flavor from the grounds. Before attempting a review like this one you should have gone to a coffee shop such as Starbucks and familiarized yourself with the "proper" flavor of espresso. Then you should have used a kitchen scale to put the exact same amount of grounds into each machine.
I find it interesting that you think Starbucks has good tasting espresso
@@CarsandEspresso I have no knowledge of the topic, but I'm sure any coffee shop uses machines that cost far more than $500.
@@davejoseph5615 I can respect that... neither do I, but I like a good cup of Joe...
Starbucks 😂
Okay settle down. This isn't a science experiment.
This machine needs to be primed before making espresso
Where did you buy that tamper? I would like to try it to see if I can get creama out of Starbucks beans? 😑
see the description... 51mm...
@@CarsandEspresso thanks I saw that after 👍🏾
Brivail espresso machean
The carafe alone cost $15. The espresso machine $25.
Mr coffee is rippoff it holds back on the water then ruins the next cup with too much water and FUCKIN RUINS IT!!
I like your stream of consciousness
Why even compare a 39 machine to a 400 machine, it's obvious what the results would be lol
Facts !!!!🤣🤣🤣
Also he had obviously been using the 400 dollar machine for quite awhile. Junk review.
Lol like comparing a Chevy Cruz to a Maserati and seeing which one is faster and has more features.
@@tw364 exactly 😂😂😂😂
@@miniard11b I know , such a bullshit review 😂😂😂😂
