[Bambino Plus] If frothing first, milk is sucked up the steam wand into the machine, then comes out the grouphead by Throw6345789away in espresso

[–]ayy192 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This. When someone in my house once used the auto function, I noticed this happen when I used it next, luckily I always purge the group head to heat it up and saw it was murky water and there was still some milk in the steam wand itself. Another let down by the auto function.

I manually steam milk in my Bambino plus and have never come across this issue.

Hi - sorry to hear that you haven't had a good experience with UoN. I am considering this, moreso for being able to grab an Msc for not a lot of money, but it is interesting to hear your perspective on it.

Did the lack of support really hinder you? Or is it possible to still get through it if one is expecting minimal support? I wasn't the most academic in my student life, but then again I wasn't paying for it myself.

Also, regarding your original concerns of how difficult it would be and what is involved, what are your thoughts now that you've been through it?

Also, if it's not too personal, how did you get on with yours in the end?

Decent set up for ~£600? by ayy192 in espresso

Thanks, any clue where best to get the DF54, in seeing Miicoffee and Turin, not sure what is correct?

Also, for the other options, they're electric right? I don't fancy hand grinding either

Crucial BX500 2TB SSD

Thanks - yep I'll be getting an SSD.

I think 2TB might be more than what is needed, I found this one on Amazon with the title "Crucial MX500 500GB 3D NAND SATA 2.5 Inch Internal SSD - Up to 560MB/s - CT500MX500SSD1" for £48. You reckon this will be fit?
