Fun fact.. you should not put your coffee grounds down the sink. They do tend to clump together with water and can be a mess when other junk goes down the pipes. Then you’re wound up with clogged pipes. $$ Garbage or compost.
I was gifted this espresso maker a couple years ago. It's incredibly forgiving for new baristas. Since it uses double-walled pressurized filters, tamping less critical than even grounds distribution. I found that 14g of coffee in the double filter is the sweet spot for my machine.
Another tip to clean, is putting the filter in with no coffee, run it until the heating light comes on. You will notice upon unlocking, that there are little bits of coffee in your filter. Then follow-up with the towel swipes as per 6:34. Cheers!
I got a cafe roma for free because a lady on craigslist said it didn't work. But mine does everything just like yours in the video! It's nice to confirm it's working properly. Thanks!
Thank you. I was catsitting and needed a cup of espresso and this was all they had was this machine. Didn't know how to use it and didn't want to break it. Lol very informative and easy to follow. Thanks again.
thank you for sharing this video. With this information I went out a bought this machine and I LOVE IT. Thanks also for showing the care and cleaning which will prolong the life of the machine. Great Work.!
Great video. I was looking to buy this machine and wondering if it was good. I think i found my next machine. Thanks for taking the time to do this review.
Bonjour quelle est la position idéale lorsque l'on tourne le porte café, un réparateur m'avait dit de le laisser vis à vis le centre du devant, ne pas le tourner plus loin vers la droite car la rondelle d' étanchéité va s'abimer car trop écrasée.
👍. Awesome introduction to the machine. The book that comes with the machine says that you shouldn't count on the machine, and that it is an art. We will play with it for a while . Thanks again .
Bravo pour la vidéo c'est très bien expliqué, par contre je me demande quel sucre vous avez utilisé et pourquoi vous ne vouliez pas utiliser le sucre normal?
Cool vid man. My neighbour upgraded his machine last year and gave me his old Cafe Roma and I have been enjoying it! Unfortunately, it is now filling with water underneath the machine, so I am hoping I just need a new seal/gasket and I continue to enjoy my morning espresso. =)
I found that the heating light gets on when the coffee flows out of the machine and it means the water is becoming cold. Why not turn off the water and wait for the light goes off?
Hey au contraire! I am hearing that it is an old myth, that it is actually ‘bad’ for the drain as the oils of the coffee are direct causes of blockages and clogged pipes. 😡
@@jackspalden5143 yes, i heard if your pipes are new and clear it's ok..but if they are already clogged it will make it worse. In any case, i just compost my grounds.😊☕
Wow! j'ai décidé que j'allais changer mes pre-workout $$$$ riche en cafeine contre cette machine, les pre-workout sont addictifs et possiblement pas si bon pour la santé que ca....Merci Ghislain pour ce tuto.
I have the same model and if I don't run water through it/purge it at least 12 hours before actually brewing espresso, it gets really hot and the espresso comes bursting out all pitch black and tarry and splattery. No crema, no 7-8 second delay before getting a rich espresso. It's just like a reverse oil geyser. What gives?
So I am assuming the pre-infusion starts when I turn the switch? The espresso coming out of my cafe roma machine after 10 seconds has a more clear colour, almost the same as water... Am I doing it wrong?
J W Pre-infusion is indeed when you turn the switch. you are doing everything correctly. maybe just let it sit another 4 seconds after it turns lighter so you can have the full effect. Colton
Merci mon homme, bon accens québécois XD Avant mon café tasted like shit aussi, maintenant il taste toujours like shit mais c'est à cause que j'ai une keurig. J'ai commandé la breville Café Roma sur amazon et je vais commencer à me faire des bon latte!
I've only heard that it's very very bad to put coffee grounds into a septic tank (down the drain) I have multiple family members in the plumbing business and they all say this. not only do the grounds clog up the drain but the oils alone are asking for trouble aka-buildup..
Agree with jersey, it's not a good idea to throw down coffee grounds. My father works in the business and always gets angry when I dumb it down the drain LOL
Charmingly Low Tech! Normally I would rail at the awful microphone, disorganized chatter etc. but this guy's heavy Montreal accent and earnest performance froze the words in my throat! Remind me a little of that TV ad for Dorion Suit in the 80s ("No 'assles at Dorion Suit!)
3:53 highlight of the video. Just a happy bro making his espresso

bought one of these on FB Marketplace and it had no instructions, thank you for all your details, very helpful
This is off-topic but you’re an adorable human. This video made me smile…
Thanks man, best videos for someone brand new to espresso who just got this machine like me!
Most adorable demonstration
Thank you. I was catsitting and needed a cup of espresso and this was all they had was this machine. Didn't know how to use it and didn't want to break it. Lol very informative and easy to follow. Thanks again.
Awwww.... I've been looking around at reviews and videos for my first machine purchase and you totally sold me this one. Such a charming demo
This was a really informative review, thanks for taking the time to cover every detail so thoroughly.
True home made TH-cam gives you the best information!
I have the same espresso maker! Nice creme and nice milk frother. I like it!
Couple years late, but great video. Just bought this machine tonight, hopefully its still a good choice.
thank you for sharing this video. With this information I went out a bought this machine and I LOVE IT. Thanks also for showing the care and cleaning which will prolong the life of the machine. Great Work.!
Merci Ghislain, t'es vraiment bon en anglais!
awesome tips, my wife's ecstatic with her machine. thanks for the great video :)
I would probably put a little more coffee in there. Thanks for the vid!
Great video. I was looking to buy this machine and wondering if it was good. I think i found my next machine.
Thanks for taking the time to do this review.
Thank you now I don’t have to read the manual , now I go see how to make latte ♥️♥️👍👍
nice demo and you have a really clean stove top.
Nice video, but didn’t see where you talked about the frother or how much espresso you’d make for a cappuccino?
such a well explained video. thanks!
Picked up one of these from a thrift store for like ten bucks. Took it home and cleaned it up. Works great but it’s a loud machine!
Just watching the review purely for the accent 😀 👍🏼👌🏼
I got one for Christmas 🎄 pretty sick
Excellent video Ghislain..I ordered one today . Looking forward to it....especially the small footprint.
Thank u for all the great tips!!!! Good video
Ahhh love this. Té bin beau et drôle! Enjoying my espresso and watching the rest of this video with a big smile ahahh☆
Lavazza coffee, bon choix!
Cool, j'avais des doutes pour acheter, mais ca ma rassurer voire le video.
Bonjour quelle est la position idéale lorsque l'on tourne le porte café, un réparateur m'avait dit de le laisser vis à vis le centre du devant, ne pas le tourner plus loin vers la droite car la rondelle d' étanchéité va s'abimer car trop écrasée.
merci buddy. Mon cafe 'tasted like shit' avant de regarder le video :)
thank you
merci pour la présentation

Was this recorded in the evening or early morning?
do you get soupy puck by this machine, I always get it
Great review. Merci!
Well done review, thank you!
good video man, just bought this today. lots of good tips and advice
merci pour le demo ! Bon anglais ! Ça m'a fait pensé à Elvis Graton ;)
Can someone plz tell me what kind of grounds it takes. I just got it
I found that the heating light gets on when the coffee flows out of the machine and it means the water is becoming cold. Why not turn off the water and wait for the light goes off?
What if Your wond won’t steam
A little noisy right?
Hi, we are 4 at home, the capacity of the coffee maker is only for 2 cups?
Excellent
Great video bro, thank you.
Thanks for your help!
Live from Québec :P nice review man
I dont have this creamy color. All the coffees feels the same taste :(. I even used the coffee that u are using..
Thank you 🙏🏻 for the video! It helps me a lot !
Why don't you use a normal espresso cup?.
Great video but wondering if there were a few takes. Camera guy seemed to be suffering from too much espresso!
merci G.
I love how you said, taste like old and shit! Thanks bud. 👍👍
Nice video! Thanks for the plumbing tip too :)

I love the disclaimer that you're only using sugar for demonstration purposes 🤣
Wow! j'ai décidé que j'allais changer mes pre-workout $$$$ riche en cafeine contre cette machine, les pre-workout sont addictifs et possiblement pas si bon pour la santé que ca....Merci Ghislain pour ce tuto.
I gave you like, although you forgot to tell us about experience using milk or cream, that is half of the video...maybe next one, hahahaha
merci big! très bon video!
What Coffee do you use?
Very good instruction video.
merci pour la video bro
Very helpful!!! thank you very much
My pods seem to be plugged, not the machine just the coffee pods. How do you clean them??
just bought a used one for $60! so far like it!
If i push too hard while packing down the espresso is that why when i dump the espresso puck its filled with water?
I find if you empty it right away it's dry. If u wait. Then left over water drains into the holder and without pressure it won't leave.
I have the same model and if I don't run water through it/purge it at least 12 hours before actually brewing espresso, it gets really hot and the espresso comes bursting out all pitch black and tarry and splattery. No crema, no 7-8 second delay before getting a rich espresso. It's just like a reverse oil geyser. What gives?
can u show us how to clean the machine with the detarter !
good review.
Merci
does the puck always look runny?, on my steam expresso, the puck is solid and almost dry
wow merci pour la vidéo!
How long have you had your machine for? I just got one today for my husband and it's pretty bad ass for its cost and size.
We are having it for years now. This is an amazing product, very proud to own it.
It doesnt have a time on the machine and unfortunately I dont have a measuring cup. How long should I let it drip for a double shot espresso?
20-30 seconds from pre-infusion.

So I am assuming the pre-infusion starts when I turn the switch? The espresso coming out of my cafe roma machine after 10 seconds has a more clear colour, almost the same as water... Am I doing it wrong?

Tabarnak de bon café

In this video & in every morning, I use Lavazza Coffee.

jessicavonrunnen hmmm never had an issue yet
Agree with jersey, it's not a good idea to throw down coffee grounds. My father works in the business and always gets angry when I dumb it down the drain LOL
I effed my sink really bad because I was doing this
The grounds are great mixed with the soil around plants, shrubs or trees. It adds nitrogen to the soil.
Shit, that was delicious!
You’re a pure beaut
T'a commencé à parler et je savais t'était Québécois haha x). L'accent est très prononcé, mais nice le review.
what the heck is in his mouth??T=chewinng turbakie???
lavazza oro a un gout superior si tu aime le gout du lavazza crema e gusto......beaucoup mieux en bean, aussi
osti les quebecois YEAHHH
What if it doesn't dispense the water in the heads??
Do NOT put coffee down your sink in Canada or USA. You will create those fatburgs in the sewers and bring up your tax bill ;)

Bravo Bruno! Very well explained and sincere, i enjoyed it and Kamakir’s comment made me laugh!!
