Hello coffee lovers, Im brewing my coffee in moka pot for 10 years already. Im dreaming coffee machine with bean grinder after I tried delonghi magnifica, but didnt have room for one. Soon Im moving to a new place where I will have more space so Im finally buying coffee machine.

Me and my lady drink espresso multiple times a day and we dont need best cappucchino maker, but doesnt hurt to have for friends.

I never owned one so I was looking at models simmilar to one I tried:

  • 22.112.B
  • 22.115.B
  • 21.117.B
  • 21.110.B

They are all about the same price and description. Are they any different?

Also, is there anything else you would recommend instead?

Thx

    Consider a compromise between traditional espresso machines and button to cup ones, in the form of Breville Oracle. It’s only a bit more effort than just a button, but what you get is better coffee than similarly priced automated machines, the opportunity to use it as a traditional machine if you wanna, and the ease of cleaning.

      Thank you, but I’m bit confused tbh. When I google Breville Oracle I only see 2k $ or more

        They might be talking about the Breville Bambino, which I think is the smallest of the Breville machines and is more like $300. I can’t speak for that one specifically, but I have a Breville Barista Express and I absolutely love it. Having the grinder built in makes it so easy to use.

          Thank you. I just found its called Sage in Europe. Barista Express looks powerful. More expensive, but Ill take a look. Bambino is ~350€, but then Id need a grinder as well. Might be better, but I think I’ll stick with automatic machine this time. Will see myself Philips, Delonghi and hopefully Breville as well on Wednesday in store.
