The bambino and Bambino plus are also on sale without a built in grinder
I suggest getting the machine and grinder separately, gives you far more range and if one breaks you can keep using the other
One of those plus an Encore ESP is cheaper overall and you can use the extra to buy a tamping station and better tamp
All their machines are set to 93* C, which is a good mid point for dark and medium roast but if you are going to do light or light-med roasts you might want to play with that setting

You fail to see the significant savings this machine offers. Making a latte with 2 shots using this Breville costs about 50 cents factoring in milk and beans. That same drink at Starbucks runs $5-6. My wife and I made 2-4 drinks per day for 8 years before it just gave out last month. We saved tens of thousands of dollars making lattes at home vs. going to a coffee shop. This machine is a tank
Am I the only one who thinks this isn't a good deal? Not that the machine is bad, but you can find the Barista Pro, which I think is better at this price point or less in TJ Maxx and Home Goods.

i just gota Temu one and it works just as good...it was $127 after all the cashback sites. If your're a beginner at this , id get one of those and fine tune ur barista skills.
Begone, vile man! Begone from me! A starter machine? This machine is a finisher machine! A transporter of gods! The golden god! I am untethered, and my rage knows no bounds!"
3rd year ownership of this BBE bought brand new on Amazon for $400. I would not recommend it just because of steaming milk takes too long (45 sec to 1 min).
I've gone really deep down the coffee rabbit hole since buying my espresso machine. If you want some REALLY good beans, look up Onyx coffee roasters. They are constantly rated amongst the best coffee roasters in the world. My favorite of their beans is their "tropical weather." It is pricey, but I finally understood specialty coffee after trying their coffee beans. It is really unique experience drinking a coffee with an almost tea/floral taste. If you want to go down the rabbit hole yourself, I'd suggest googling "reddit best coffee beans" and reading through some threads.
