Review: Easy to make espresso - I am working in the area of coffee shops but am not a barista and only make espresso and pour over for myself. I never really got to make espresso for myself at home as I thought it is too much effort as well as all that equipment and stayed with pour over. With the Bambino being relatively small as well as affordable compared to more professional machines I gave it a go and have not regretted the move. It is a very well build machine, relatively easy to clean and maintain and very easy to use. It truly heats up fast so no waiting around for the boiler to heat up just for one cup in the afternoon. I use the non-pressurised baskets and they have provided very good results though on taste I have to admit I am not an expert. There is still enough flexibility in the machine if you are a bit geeky and try to control water amount out manually (i.e. I use a 15g espresso amount with about 30g espresso out in the cup). No control over temperature and pressure though. I have also bought a bottomless portafilter from China which was worth the wait and with a mirror it is great to watch the coffee coming through the basket for improving your tamping skills. Last but not least I can only recommend to invest in a very good grinder in order to get great result out of the machine. As the saying goes, garbage in garbage out. I can recommend the Eureka Specialita at basically the same price as the Bambino.
Review: Wonderful - Wonderful. Does everything I need. Easily 5*

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will a tall latte mug fit?**
A: Not sure exactly what size a tall latte mug is.
My re-useable bamboo coffee mug is 13cm tall & it fits. The total space is 14cm….but you’d need to tilt any mug thats over 13cm so that it doesn’t hit the bits where the coffee drips out. Hope this helps.

**Q: Is the coffee boiling hot as i like it really hot please**
A: The Sage® SES550 Bambino® Plus will usually heat water to approximately 93.4° C before releasing it into the grounds to brew espresso.

Wonderful. Does everything I need. Easily 5*

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great first machine, you will need to buy extras
*by B***L on 18 December 2024*

Had this unit for a month now, initial unit that shipped out was faulty and would not turn on; Breville support eventually replaced it with a new model. It makes decent espresso, the cleaning is easy, it’s not overly loud and is smart looking. Beware a few things: - you’ll need to buy a new portafilter immediately because the included one doesn’t make great coffee. - the machine is really sensitive to fine grind so pick up a WDT tool and spring loaded tamper to help. Basically this is about 75% of what you need for a great coffee. It feels like a very entry level model and I’m not convinced the pressure is high enough for more complex tastes. Auto frothy milk is awesome however!
