I’m looking at the bambino as upgrade for my wife. I bought her a delonghi a couple years ago. Her biggest complaint about the one she has now is it’ll only make one cup of espresso and then it has to cool for a good long while. We’ve had issues off and on with it, it’s kinda finicky I guess. Any issues you’ve had with your bambino? Can you make multiple cups of espresso back to back?
Bambino is great. Heats up in seconds and yes you can pull multiple shots back to back because it technically does not have a boiler. I used a thermojet so it instantly heats your water. Works very well.
Yes it's crazy how fast hard water destroys these machines. Even RO water is terrible for them. I just installed a BWT Bestmax Premium filter and plumbed my machine. That's been my set it and forget it solution.
What price range are you looking at? I have a Kaldi Fortis 600 and I'm really happy with it.
Should have worded that differently. I'm wanting to buy roasted whole beans. Better quality than the store bought stuff but still economical to drink.
Ah sorry, can't help you there. My advice is though find a roaster that offers a subscription. It's usually cheaper and fresher plus they often include free shipping or something if you sign up for a subscription.
I know what you're asking but you really should try home roasting. West Bend Poppery II off eBay plus some green coffee beans from Sweet Maria's and you're set. Half the price and always fresh.
Rodaks coffee is the coffee I've drank for at least 6 or 7 years and havent found anything better. He roasts your coffee when you order it and ships it out. Nice guy too. Home roasting is a great way to go too. Nothing better than fresh roasted coffee
