Video

excellent video!!!! Thank you for the education!

Mine only lasted 3 years and it won't pull shots anymore. Thinking maybe the pump isn't putting out enough pressure, as it can't push through the puck. I thought it had 5 year warranty but only 1 year. You can actually unscrew the brew head with Philips screwdriver, really simple to remove and clean. But that didn't fix mine though. Determined to get it back working again, put in a ticket with Breville. I may DIY the pump but it's complicated fix especially since I don't know for sure which parts are bad.

I also have the bambino plus used two plastic chopsticks and pushed them through the bottom two holes of the portafilter at the same time and the plastic popped out very easily. Don’t forget to remove the spring.

Talk too much

Thanks for your help! I use plain citric acid in my water tank to descale, but I didn’t know what to do for my group head. I thankfully already had branch basics oxygen boost so that worked out well! I need to know where you got that tray that you were tampering your coffee grinds on though, do you have a link?

Excellent video. Thank-you! Just bought my Bambino + and starting the learning process.

It looks to me like you are brewing with the dual-wall basket. Those are designed to be used with ready ground coffee which you buy at the shop. As you are using coffee you grind yourself then the single-wall baskets are the way to go.

it was a great help watching your video. I used to drink “la llave” pre ground coffee. Is it fine to use a pre ground coffee or do you recommend to buy a grinder? which coffee grains are better to use? Thank you so much for your support! Blessings!

Please share how long you cook at each stage. Ty.

Great

The grinder at 15 makes coffee coarse perfect for Moka. I usually set it at 5 and 3/4 for medium roast coffe, and 5 1/4 for medium light roasted coffee. I'm curious about the settings of other users

don't forget about the cleaning tool under the water tank

You don’t need to descale your coffee machine if you ALWAYS put filtered water in it. I have a Breville, it’s now 8 years old, and I never descaled it.

I couldn’t find time and temp directions on these anywhere. Here included 😕

They put the plastic in them because these machines don't heat the portafilter before use so it "helps" to keep the espresso from cooling when it hits the stainless steel. I agree that I didn't want my drink leeching plastic and building up mold under it. Good video.

How do you turn it off ?

There is a video on youtube teach you to remove it, it is extremely easy', I just use the back of the clour pen and just the right size to fit in the whole then push it lightly the it came out.

Hi! I have been using your Breville Bambino video to clean my machine for years! Do you have links to buy the two products by any chance? Thanks!!

Yay!! Been wanting a gf ramen recipe!

Hi, very useful video. I’m in the UK and I have just ventured into the world of espresso. I bought the Bambino plus but found the special grinder rather expensive, perhaps I will progress to that later. Watching other videos, I took their advice and bought a bottomless portafilter, what a mistake that was. After clearing up all the mess from liquid shooting out in all directions I went back to the provided portafilter. Your explanation of the cleaning and descaling processes are by far the best I have seen, and I will no doubt be referring back to this when the time comes. Thanks for your hard work.

Love to see more recipes and your daily process for espresso.

Nice details and pleasant tone of voice.

ugh. double shot of espresso in 15 seconds... that is not gonna taste great. well you added milk so...

Thank you for sharing, I will be trying this

Yum 😋 Love the shredding the chicken idea with a blender! Thanks 🙏 pops eats a lot more dairy free too now so I’ll have him make me this! He’s the Chef now!

This looks amazing ! Thanks for sharing

Yea for anything dairy free.....just what I am looking for

Promo SM 💞

Yes I have a question. Are you single 😂

Thank you! Mine was extremely hard to remove so I ran a couple shots of hot water through it to soften the plastic then it came right out.

Great review👏👏👏

Yum! Where is that beautiful baby girl helper?

Wow, totally forgot I had originally had that plastic thingie. I have had my Bambino Plus for about 2 years or so but I had seen a lot of reviews before purchasing it. I knew people take it out so I did as soon as I was setting it up. Seems like I pushed with a screwdriver from the holes? Not sure. But thank goodness I took it out... wow!

Great review 👌🏾👍🏽

Hi. Normally how often you need to do the clean cycle and the descaling?

On your grinder what setting do you normally set for grinding ?

Crema. Not crème

We purchased a Blackstone from an individual who was not cooking gluten free. Is cleaning with water and oil enough to make it safe to cook a gluten free meal for someone who has Celiac's or do we need to worry about cross contamination?

I would buy Bambino non pro version and with saved money would take her to a date.

Excellent video - so clear and detailed. The best I've seen. Thank you. I'm on the point of buying a Bambino Plus, but I have seen some complaints on online customer reviews that the machine does not produce coffee that is heated to 200F as specified in the manual. I do like a reasonably hot coffee (not scorching of course, but not luke warm either). Would be most interested to hear from you or other viewers with the BB Plus whether this too-low temperature claim is valid or not. I'm actually thinking of going for the Breville Infuser instead, just because it provides the option to change the brew temperature. If it wasn't for this apparent temperature issue, would be happy to go with the BB Plus because where I live Breville offers a 2 year warranty on this, but only 1 year on the Infuser. Cheers!

Much clearer than instructions. Excellent, no nonsense presentation.

You probably want to buy a non insulated basket for your portafilter. You will find an immediate improvement in your espresso, but you might find that you will want to grind your beans a bit finer. Those insulated baskets you are using (per the manual) are only for pre-ground, coarse ground or older coffee. The new machines come with both insulated and non-insulated baskets. Wait til you see your crema on a non-insulated basket!!! Thanks for the great video.

This is an extremely well- produced video. It covers all the bases, it’s presented in a very clear communication style, and the production values are high quality. Congratulations and thank you.

Thank you so much for sharing this! I started my GF lifestyle last month and needed this

Your dog wants some 🐕

Her eyes are blinking so much

Be careful with the better than bouillon for the celiacs! It is produced in a facility that processes wheat! This look amazing!!

Great video!! Can i clean it with blind basket, cuz i lost my original part for cleaning? Thanks!

searched "gluten free grilled cheese". thanks for the info..... mayooo

What camera do you use?
