Pros and cons

According to our semi-automatic espresso machine expert

With the included coffee grinder, you can grind coffee beans in 60 different grind settings.
It's easier to froth milk than with other piston machines, because the steam wand does this fully automatically.
Thanks to the built-in temperature controls, your coffee doesn't burn and it tastes well.
Due to its large size, the coffee grinder takes up a lot of space on your counter.

Description

With the Sage The Bambino Plus Black Truffle + Coffee Grinder, you can grind the coffee beans right into the portafilter to brew some coffee straight away. The user-friendly bean grinder has 60 grind settings and displays the grinding time, grind setting, and number of ground portions in a simple way. On the display, you can also see which coarseness is suitable for which type of coffee. This is useful, because you can brew a coffee with the right grind setting right away. The coffee machine heats up in 3 seconds, ready to make 1 or 2 cups of coffee at the same time. When you place a pitcher with milk underneath the steam wand, the automatic steam wand will froth the milk right away. Is it time to clean the machine? The cleaning indicator will notify you.

Note: it takes time and patience to learn how to prepare a tasty coffee with a piston machine. This isn't nearly as easy as with a fully automatic espresso machine.

You have to pay for delicious coffee.

Large water reservoir
Compact design
Solid build quality
Milk foam not consistent

Very happy with the device so far. Month in use.

Delicious coffee. The most important thing is to discover the right amount of coffee and fineness of the grind. For a double shot of espresso 15mg. Resulting in a delicious espresso with a beautiful, full crema layer.

Appearance of the machine is sleek and minimalist. Looks and feels professional.

The machine has a large water tank, especially considering the overall size of the machine. Another big advantage is that the device comes standard with a scale filter. This is important given that Dutch tap water contains a lot of lime.

The build of the device feels solid and exudes quality.

The milk frother works with a sensor that should ensure that you have the perfect milk foam for your cappuccino or latte every time. Unfortunately, this is different in practice. Milk jug in the same place every time, equally cold milk .. but a smaller amount but finer, other times coarser but larger amount of milk foam. Can't figure out what is causing this inconsistency.

Self-cleaning milk system offers a solution. After all, a clean device is important for its lifespan. But keep in mind that you have to empty and clean the slightly small drip tray every two days.

Noise level is average. While the espresso is brewing, the stainless steel grid resonates on the drip tray. But that is no different with other devices. (Speaking from experience)

In short, no 'press the button' coffee. But you have to pay something for delicious coffee. This device makes you a barista.

Good device that is properly built

Works simply (semi) automatically
Can also be used completely manually
Many accessories included
First start up you have to read carefully.

I like the option for fully manual operation, both for the dosage and the frothing of the milk.

Use mastered? Very nice machine!

Good coffee
Very complete
Compact device
You have to measure coffee very accurately

It really is a nice compact device. Milk frother works well. Making coffee is just a puzzle. The grind of the beans is very close. If that is not correct, the coffee will not flow properly. So you have to be an enthusiast and willing to put in some effort.
