Have this since 2019. Using daily (2x per day).High level: will make you great coffee beverages while saving you thousands of $$ IF you learn few quirks. (min 3000 beverages in this timeframe)Pro:- great taste beverages even if you just use factory presets (I strongly recommend with time that you try various coffees and grinds to see what fits you as well as the tamp pressure you need to apply and extract time)- starts fast and easy to operate (will beat the more expensive full automatics in extract quality as well as milk frothing and ease of cleaning)- big water reservoir and cleans easy- small footprint- high end beverages after you find out what coffee/grind size/milk type fits you and do all manualBad:- drip tray way too small and needs rinsing frequently- cleaning reminder (the 200 beverages one) malfunctioned after about 2-3 years, it always shows I need to perform a cleaning cycle even after I run it (no biggie, you just have to remember to run that cycle ever couple of months or so)- should be $100 cheaper

5.0 out of 5 stars Excelente cafetera.
Reviewed in Mexico on September 6, 2022
Desde hacía meses estaba buscando una cafetera nueva para sustituir una Krups Gusto. Vi de todos tipos, desde las Oster de gama baja hasta las DeLongi superautomáticas. Ninguna me convencía porque no quería gastarme un dineral pero también quería una cafetera que diera una buena experiencia del café.

La Bambino Plus cumple por mucho con su propósito. Entrega una taza bastante correcta, mejor que muchas cafeterías que no son de especialidad. La extracción es buena y la crema es consistente y duradera. La espuma de la leche es bastante buena y sedosa; ahora mismo estoy tratando de aprender arte latte.

La cafetera es sencilla de usar. Seleccionas carga sencilla o doble de expreso y la máquina hace el resto. El espumador se puede usar de forma manual pero la función automática trabaja bastante bien y puedes escoger la temperatura y textura de la leche.

Hay que jugar con la Bambino Plus los primeros días. Tienes que probar distintos tipos de molido hasta obtener el que buscas. Si es muy grueso, la extracción será pobre, aguada y sin crema. Si es demasiado fino entonces el agua no pasará porque la canastilla estará tapada. Con la leche es lo mismo: es importante probar con distintos tipos hasta encontrar la textura que buscas -la recomendación es que sea lo más entera posible y de preferencia esté fría-. Eso sí, la barita espumadora es bastante sensible. Si no la limpias al momento, la leche se seca muy rápido y tapa los orificios, que son realmente pequeños. Cuando notas que ya no espuma bien es momento de limpiarla a profundidad.

La caja incluye varios accesorios de muy buena calidad, desde un portafiltros robusto con cuatro canastillas distintas hasta el tamper y una herramienta para asegurarse que la dosis de café es la correcta. También viene con pastillas de limpieza y descalcificador.

Hasta ahora, el único punto negativo que encuentro es el precio. Aunque yo la encontré con descuento, se trata de cualquier forma de un gasto mayor. Ciertamente hay cafeteras que cuestan cuatro o cinco veces más y esta se encuentra en un rango intermedio de precios. Dependerá de la durabilidad del producto para saber si valió la pena.

Si no quieres gastar un dineral en una máquina profesional esta es tu mejor opción, al principio te costará tiempo adaptarte para encontrar el punto ideal de extracción, inicialmente recomiendo comprar accesorios del mercado secundario de buena calidad , por ejemplo,
Un filtro de mayor calidad
Un porta filtro desnudo
Un tamper
Un distribuidor de agujas
La idea es siempre ser constante en todos los procesos y eliminar las mayores variables posibles, una vez que dómines eso , todos tus café van a salir de maravilla , en lo personal no ocupo los botones automáticos, sólo dejo presionado el botón de una o dos tazas por aproximadamente ocho o 10 segundos para la pre infusión y una vez que lo suelto empieza el tiro y tengo extracciones correctas de 25 y 30 segundos, pero si o si debes tener un molino de buena calidad, en mi caso tengo un molino Breville grinder pro y tengo pensado adquirir un Barraza 270 wi , si no tienes un molino de buena calidad nunca vas a sacar un buen espresso, cabe señalar que un amigo tiene la gaggia classic pro y los dos hemos concluido que la Bambino plus definitivamente la supera en muchos aspectos
