1zpresso JX-PRO vs Breville Bambino Plus

I am having quite a hard time finding a good Kettle to buy. Seems like the consensus in this sub is Bonavita Variable temp control but it's sold out everywhere can't seem to get it..

I purge and run a blank shot to get the group head/portafilter warmed up before pulling an espresso shot and I can start doing that pretty much after turning it on. - Capable of pulling an excellent espresso shot (i.e. pump pressure and temperature control is good)

For almost the exact same drawdown times (3:05ish on the encore 3:00ish on the jx) the clarity and separation of flavors was much more pronounced on the jx pro. Additionally, the encore's brew had almost a bitter aftertaste that was not present at all on the jx pro brew - this was really noticeable to me and. I did expect the jx pro to be better, but it exceeded my expectations, and I think its reasonable to assume that the regular Jx (which is actually the same price as the encore) would perform similarly for v60.

all i mean to say is, the breville bambino is underpowered and that single boiler machines will allow you to grind finer and extract more flavor. so i do think you will notice a difference if you go to a more expensive machine.

I was using it occasionally because I've got a really great, you know, 65 mil flatburr grinder and so why would I need to use this? And what I've actu...

Personally, I actually do like this machine for who it's targeted for. What I will do though is just update the portal filter to a Pasado Portafilter ...

I think they're just repeating what they've heard from somebody else. It's a little bit the same as when the Android phone started to become better th...

My older cheaper ugly Delonghi never had that problem. I'm hoping they can improve the design of the interior of the basket or the holder to better split the water. As for the price, it is not cheap; but with Starbucks' cappuccinos at $3.65 you'll start saving money within a few months

I had this epiphany as well! Got the 1ZPresso JX Pro and was shocked by the sweetness and clarity of aromas I was able to pull from the coffee.

We use it nearly every day while sitting in the Kitchen enjoying the morning. Recommend using the Illy coffee to get the fragrance and taste of Italy. Enjoy!

The one Zed Presto Jx Pro That's a mouthful. Yeah, we thought, would this be able to be my 300 espresso grinder? I mean, I was actually really impress...

But I *am* buying a Breville Infuser, from another vendor. There's really nothing comparable, feature-wise, in this price range (or the next range up; the Infuser is more expensive by about $80 or so, and is more focused on tweaking the temperature and pressure variables). And let's be real - if this wasn't a device designed for the precision extraction of an addictive stimulant from a bean, I wouldn't be nearly this invested in getting it right, and I certainly wouldn't be typing up several hundred words' worth of review at 12:30AM, or incrementally inching my way towards some thousand-dollar monstrosity that looks like a chromed section of a WWII battleship's engine room. Don't do school, kids, stay in drugs

The mechanical action is very satisfying as it crunches through the beans. It's also nice not to have electrical appliance noise at 5 AM. I have not taken it apart for cleaning and frankly don't intend to. I figure if you're grinding a few times a day, every day, then it should be keeping fresh grinds in the gears as you go

Here's what the happened with the Breville Bambino. My friend didn't have the right kind of coffee grinder for whole beans, so she bought a few ounces of beans at a Peet's Coffee and asked the barista to grind them to the consistency appropriate for making espresso. She brought it home, and we tried it with the Bambino and---nothing, almost no coffee came out, and what did tasted terrible. Even after making sure NOT to tamp down the coffee in the filter with too much pressure, the Bambino proved INCAPABLE OF 'EXPRESSING' A SINGLE SHOT OF ESPRESSO, GROUND TO ESPRESSO MAKING CONSISTENCY AT A PEET's COFFEE coffee bean seller
