There is a bunch of techniques you have to master for regular filters: grind size, amount, tamping correctly. You also might have to adjust per coffee type as well as age of bean.
If I make a black coffee like that it would be cold or lukewarm. Perhaps the warm milk mitigates that problem. But I wonder how you get hot espresso this way?
Automatic on the bambino plus can’t produce good micro foam for latte art. You need to carefully control air induction at the beginning and then whirlpool it until heated manually for best results.
This is a pretty decent good machine. Very compact and it comes with all the things you need for making a decent espresso and frothing capabilities. However, one thing i want to stress that the power supply who supplied to the heater, froth and solenoid is not reliable. Mine was replaced once just before 1 year. I also heard about another one who is also facing the same issue. Do not over run this machine, let it cool down as much as possible and do not do back to back too many times at the same time.
I've never seen coffee so expensive....the Exploradores de Cafe. I guess you feel it is worth it? Any thoughts on why you think it superior to much less expensive (but still considered quality) coffees? I would love to try it sometime.
Just saw your video. Great job. Does your Breville Bambino Plus make HOT espresso and milk drinks? Its important to me before I buy one of these. Thank you!!
Hello, I currently have the same machine as you and i'm still very new to making coffee. Is it okay if i ask how long your extraction time is for the single shot? I'm still struggling setting my machine up -_-
The Bambino comes with a double-floor extraction cup. It isn't that important to get the tamper perfect, as the cup itself will control the pressure. The machine is set to 20sec for small, 30sec for double shot. Leave it at this. Just make sure you clean the cup afterwards by pouring water through the empty cup to remove the remains. And periodically clean by soaking in Citric acid (1tsp to 1 cup water)
@@Chelovik_NZjust to hijack this thread. I'm waiting for a grinder to arrive, in the mean time I'm just using some preground stuff to get by and learn. I'm using the double wall cup but the yield amount doesn't seem too great for a double. I'm weighing out 18g on the scale before leveling and tamping. Any pointers?
@@ItzD3fW1sH Hi ... I didn't see your reply until just now, so I hope this helps still ... Make sure if you are using pre-ground beans to buy Espresso Grind only ... Filter grind is too course. You shouldn't need to tamper too tightly with the double-floor cup, otherwise it will pour out tasting over extracted. But I would recommend buying a grinder, and setting it near the fine grind setting (not too fine however ... experiment a little)
I have Bambino for our holiday home and love it. We've got a more serious machine for our own home and the coffee is very comparable. However, what I would say is you don't need to fanny about weighing coffee beans, using the Razor, polisher, etc. Just learn to judge amounts, tamping pressure and polish with the tamper. Very easy and quick. Same results, same taste.
How do you get such a long (and good!) run time? I have a Bambino Plus and a Baratza Virtuoso grinder. Ground very fine, I get a good 1:2 ratio (18 gm in, 36 gm out), but my run times are ~15 seconds and things don't taste so good.
Why didn't you use the auto-steaming and auto-foam? It seems like you preffered to do it manually?
My brain is not ready for this in the morning, too complicated )). But in the afternoon I would enjoy.
Que relajante, gracias. 👍🏻
I am curious, what powder/spice did you sprinkle atop of your espresso before adding milk
Hey where is that distribution tool from? The step before tamping where you spun the black thing 😂. Great process! Thanks for sharing!
Cappuccino have 2-4cm foam , this is more like a flat white )
which portafilter did you use
how long did it take you to get the taste right using the non-pressurized portafilter? and no channeling?

Hey did you swap out the steam wand tip? if so mind if I ask where you got it?
Verry cool routine 😎 Wath is your percto bottomless ?
What do you do with the excess milk 😢
Great video! What size is your acme cup!? I’m debating between getting the cappuccino or latte size and can’t seem to decide
Get te cappuccino one
Where did you buy your bottomless portafilter? I suppose you're using a non pressurized basket?
Also are you using the pre-set double cup setting when pulling the shot? Or are you doing a custom timed shot?
Pretty much same routine as mine. However, we do not have a separate grinder. I do love your cappuccino mug. Where’d you get them from? Xx
Acme cups, best cups ever

good job !why you did not use automatic heat sensor for making milk foam?
Cause you can froth manually like he did. Sensor is just a noob friendly way I thought?
@@ItzD3fW1sH yeah I think you’re right.
Automatic on the bambino plus can’t produce good micro foam for latte art. You need to carefully control air induction at the beginning and then whirlpool it until heated manually for best results.
On this single shot you did is that with the factory single shot setting or did you manually program ?

Is not that expensive here in Mexico, like 20 bucks (USA DOLARS)
Make sure you try Colombian coffee, for me it is the best there is
Hi sir, would it matter if i increase or use the lowest temperature in making the cappucino froth?
Ey veo que eres de Mexico! Se te hace muy fuerte con doble shot de espresso o porque shot sencillo?
YOU CAN SWITCH OUT THE PORTAFILTERS?????
Looked like more than 30ml!
What grinder?
I want a naked portafilter for Bambino plus ! How find ?????
Any bottomless 54mm portafilter from Amazon will work
really wonderful to watch !
That’s a latte tho right? Beautiful job
yes!! some people like to call it capuccino

Should be at least 20-30 secs

@@ItzD3fW1sH what grinder did you buy? I am looking for one that can grind both coffee ande espresso . Thinking about the baratza vario plus.

Which Porta filter and tamper are you using? Doesn't look stock...
I bought the portafilter in aliexpress, and the tamper is from Breville
@@EstebanHernandez-hs6zl Do you have the link. its beautiful. You use single shot filter but get the flow just right. impressive! :)

Sounds like it's running too fast. If your grind is as fine as it can be, it may be your tamping?
Why was this on my timeline. I am not a snob about my espressos.
What do you mean
I have this machine and wish I’d never bought it. Over priced and over rated.
