Great upgrade from my Breville Bambino Plus! Offers more customization and makes espresso brewing even more fun! It also can reach a diverse audience by using step-by-step instructions for drinks, so new coffee makers can learn. My one critique is I wish the app could start the machine, or have a scheduled warm up time each day, which I hope comes in a firmware update in the future.
New to making espresso, or just good espresso. This really makes pro-espresso. There are some settings that have taken me quite a few tries to get right and im still learning. It looks fantastic and well built and thought out. Fun to keep playing with to get it right.
I have been using my Series 1 for about a month now. It has been a pleasure making my favorite milk coffee drinks at home. I’m coming from a Cafelat Robot, which is excellent, but the full machine experience is a joy. The series 1 has helped me hone in my espresso dialing in skills as well.
Coffee does not get to 200 degree despite setting the temp at 200 degrees. I have tired everything, but still can't get it to the 200 degrees. Honest I have been able to to get it is ~180 degrees.
