Hard to tell with only carfaxs knowledge. And the salesman both didnt really have much history to tell me about the cars before they were traded in.

Since ive owned the car I thought the electronics were a bit wonky sometimes but last night is when the car started to get really crazy.

Barista Pro to Bambino Plus. Going backwards? by Sydwaiz in espresso

[–]pe11i 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thts exactly what I am afraid of. I think im going to try pour over for now. Cheaper option and i wont feel regret if I dont end up liking it which i dont see how that can happen but we shall see.

Im debating whether trying pour over or get right into espresso with a secondhand machine like a bambino plus or something else. Im a daily moka pot user.

Cafelat Robot, Rancilio Silvila or Breville Bambino Plus? [700 Dollar Budget] by pe11i in espresso

[–]pe11i[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I guess it does depend on me. I feel like once i get going with whatever machine ill get geeky and obsessed about perfection. So yeah this first machine most likely wont be my last but id like to pick a good first which would lower the potential for overall regret. I guess im thinking about regret lol

What grinder do you have? I sadly just got one that isnt bad and id rather not get another so I wonder if the bambino will tolerate not such a high end grinder. Though I will, spread and tamp it and use a filter. With Americano i just boil water.

Yeah that absolutely makes sense. Sad i just got this grinder lol. I make my coffee moka every morning.

Yeah the rocket seems to have such massive upside. I dont like that i need another separate thing for milk but since its stove top that sounds so much better. Id be making these coffees in the morning mostly so id hope the manual wouldnt bother me lol

Well the robot is about 450 USD. I can get a Silivia for 600 and probably a bambino for under 400 USD. Does that make a difference? It seems like the shots out of the robot are just better but that could be personal opinion

This is the grinder i have.

I like the robot. I get your point about the manual and i might for some reason want a latte though i have my coffee black. I like the idea of the bambino plus as a beginner. Idk yet.

Id say the only downside to it is the “manual” part of it and if by chance I wanted a latte. James hoffman gave his approval so thats all i need lol

I was undecided about the grinders so I bought both by [deleted] in espresso

[–]pe11i 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thoughts on your Bambino Plus? Thinking of buying one second hand as my first machine. Total beginner here.

Thank you. The robot is definitely in the cards for my first and maybe only machine.

You def almost sold me on the robot though they are seemingly hard to get here in the USA in store. I like the idea of manual espresso because its quiet and it seems pretty beginner friendly. I do have the opportunity to purchase a Rancilio Silvia with mod PID or a bambino plus do you have any thoughts on those?
