Hi Quin! Great video. Loved watching your whole process. Just a tip I wanted to share on stretching the oat milk. Oat milk could lose its flavor and sweetness when heated too much so you should stay at or below 130-135 F (best temp for Oat milk) when possible. Also, when steaming, if the goal is lets say 135 F, you want to stop the steaming at 130F because there is a temperature "momentum" that takes place. Basically, when you stop steaming at 130F, the temperature of the oat milk (and regular milk also) in the pitcher will continue to rise 3-5 F so you want to stop short of the goal temp. I say this because I see in the video that you steamed the oat milk up to 140F which means the temp reached around 143-145F when you poured into the espresso.
@@QuinCarter You're welcome! Thank you for creating the video and sharing with us. It takes a lot to create and edit the videos so I really appreciate you spending the time to share your setup/process with us.
It would be tight. Even with the ability to move the tank on this one, it is still quite a large footprint. I think it would BARELY fit. This machine has been great to me. You won't be disappointed! ❤️
@@QuinCarter Thanks for the reply! Any chance you'd be able to measure the depth from the front of the front feet to the back of the back feet please? If not no worries haha
@@user-wr2vg2ud4q I actually thought of you whenever I woke up today. I measured it just now. It is right at 15.75 if you don't put the water tank on the back. I have mine mounted on the side
I'll do a video about it. But it's pretty comparable! I can get pretty good shots on both (helps that my grinder is decent too). The flair is awesome for quick shots when I don't want to wait for the Bianca to get to temp and internals heat up
hey. Beautiful espresso produced there 👌🏻 Tomorrow I expect my Lelit Bianca too. And I have one simple question. Did you happen to modify the OPV rotation tool ? Did you change its position, so that it goes from 2 bar up to 11, instead of from 0 up to 9 bar ?
@@QuinCarter that's good to know. Thanks for your immediate answer. My espresso machine providers have not done it for me. So, I consider to do it myself. Enjoy your Sunday
@@Gabriel.Q ultimately the optimal pressure depends on coffee quality, roast level, age, and a bunch of factors. A concept was explained to me recently about "Work". Light roasted coffee didn't have much work performed during roasting so more work is needed via finer grind or higher pressure or water contact time. Which correlates to the amount of pressure needed to extract different flavor notes. Darker roasts have had more of that work already performed hence the ease of extraction via quick shots or various pressures and courser grinds. I can't explain the concept of turbo shots though. That stuff confuses me. 😅. I don't know how accurate all that is but that has stuck with me. Thanks for watching and thanks for asking!
Hey thanks for watching! Yeah I don't pull anything darker. I get much more complex flavor profiles and it makes the espresso taste great once dialed in. And yes. It's a VST basket but a 20g. 😉
Great video, Im looking at a V3, always good to have a birthday. How hard is it to configure a low profile shot, for example 5 sec pre soak, 5 sec bloom, x secs 4 bar, x secs 10 bar etc...
Hey there! Thanks for watching! So there isn't any programming for the entire shot time. You can do stuff with the flow control paddle and adjust the pressure and Flow during the shot. There is an option in the lelit control panel to set up some kind of pre-infusion, but you can do it manually with the flow control paddle with a little more control. Hope this helps!
@@QuinCarter Thanks mate, I watched some of the following around 5min mark, it shows a low flow then up to 9 bars and back..I found another with pre infusion, bloom and then low flow..maybe different models maybe this is EU? czcams.com/video/_Tn84Gp_xcQ/video.html
@@Rawprawned Clive Coffee is where i got it. They said it was the v3 when i bought it. But i don't have the programming options for the shots in my LCC that i can find.
That's a Fellow Atmos container! Love those things. It is good for more than just coffee -- it seals up and sucks the air out of it so it is air tight. Thanks for watching! 😉
Hi! I am using the 2 hole tip. The 4 hole tip makes too much foam for latte art for me. The 2 hole tip steams a little slower I think, but I get more control with it and consistent silky milky
Hey thanks for watching! I've actually really liked it for single dosing. Just make sure you do a decent cleaning on it like once a month or when you switch beans. This guy has an Etsy and Amazon shop but he has a warehouse in the states. Very worth it if you ask me. This is the one I got. He has one for all the eureka grinders amzn.to/3vjV9yi
I'm not sure about the exchange rate. You could probably order it from a Lelit retailer in Europe. I know the price is inflated some in USA because of import taxes. Check the grinder as well somewhere in Europe
How much do you wash the cloth you use to clean the foaming nozzle? Just curious. I used to take care of my little sister and clothes with milk on it smells nasty within hours. Maybe the heat changes things and you get to use them for a couple of days, or do you wash it every day, or do you have a few of those and throw them in the laundry machine all at once at the end of the week?
Hey thanks for watching! Depends on if I spill. But it's not bad. Like once a week with the rest of my towels 👍🏼. Sometimes more often if I make a mess 🤣
7 minutes for 1 cup, ridiculous.. 5 friends went to sleep waiting half an hour for their cup. the main bianca dual boiler advantage left and is not used for steaming and brewing at the same time. Since there is no milk volume control, the final result is somewhere between cappuchino or latte or simply uncategorized coffee and milk drink...
I've since updated my setup a little to account for a faster workflow. I can make a latte in about 2 minutes now. And I changed the steam tip to be the 4 hole tip and it went much faster for steaming.
@@QuinCarter Milk changes coffee taste to much (adding sugar too). I think in this case espresso ruotine cold be simplified or left just for practicing espresso, since pure espresso more demanding for right taste. Usually average barista have programmed grinder timer and programmed extraction timer on machine- there is no time to play with "all toys" on rush hours...
I will drink my coffee end go to work half way preparing you cofe

Super impressed with how well the oat milk came out!
Hey thanks! The Califia farms barista blend is probably my favorite Oat milk to work with for latte art!
Nice setup! I'm considering the same machine as my next upgrade. Do you think it will fit on my sideboard that has a 15.75" depth?

Noticed the flair 58 there in the background. You’ve got both! How do the espressos compare?

I did my initial thoughts over the flair if you wanna watch it!
@@QuinCarter Nice. Thanks

And I have one simple question. Did you happen to modify the OPV rotation tool ?
Did you change its position, so that it goes from 2 bar up to 11,
instead of from 0 up to 9 bar ?
So Clive coffee did it for me! They adjust it when they get it from Lelit!
Also awesome! Definitely let me know how you like it!! It's a fantastic machine and I use it literally every day multiple times a day.
@@QuinCarter that's good to know. Thanks for your immediate answer.

@@QuinCarter why do you want it to go up to 11 though? Isn't 9 the optimal pressure?

Hahaha!
I want to get a Bianca V3 and what is the difference between V2 and V3, can we find out?
Pretty sure it's all in the LCC.

I noticed u have moved the water tank to the left side, is it hard to do?
Not hard at all! Like two screws!
Did you remove your atom declumper screen?
No I didn't!
Hello! Are you using 2 or 4 hole steam tip?
Hi! I am using the 2 hole tip. The 4 hole tip makes too much foam for latte art for me. The 2 hole tip steams a little slower I think, but I get more control with it and consistent silky milky
I have a Bianca also, I found the 4 hole tip to be too fast and the 2 hole, too slow. I purchased a 3 hole tip and am happy with that.
@@paul--b nice. I'll have to look at getting a 3 hole to try
How is the Atom 75 for single dosing with the bellows? .3 grams retention seems pretty decent to me, is that pretty consistent?
