WPM made all Sunbeam's last machines, they're just white label

Those nasty dragon scales really get stuck in places they shouldn't :)

I've never got more than 18g in my bambino basket, which is the same basket size as I can't fit my dosing funnel into the super jolly fork

Not sure why you're getting downvoted to oblivion.... this is right

Did you read my post? I had a smart grinder plus, which is the same grinder as in the barista express and it had such bad clumping that it…

In this range you would buy a hand grinder, an inbuilt grinder has small burr size, bad adjustment and usually really bad clumping But your…

These come with 4 baskets now, single and double wall of single and double shot

This machine is the first machine in the 'budget' range that has everything, a PID, 3 way valve, decent power steaming, programmable shot…

Use a pyrex measuring cup as the container you put under it, it's pretty much perfect

I've never had this issue and I've had mine for 4 years, used a BBE group handle and stock baskets, has been fine with basic maintenance

The video card will take up a minimum of 1/4 of it just displaying anything useful

Something something dell outlet is cheaper for a higher spec model

Sunbeam all have aluminium portafilters..... I avoid them for this reason

From memory April and August were the ones for this part of the year, then later

My dad used to own an EM6910, the 7000/7100 is different to the sunbeam's they've released recently. When you get a chance check them out,…

I looked when they first came out

My 2c is that the grinder mechanism seems flimsy and the portafilter is aluminium The rest is up to what you want in your machine

Yep, that's the one. It is a heavier weight and fits most forked grinders. I barely use the old one, except to clean the machine

You forgot this step, watch this guy - https://www.youtube.com/@LanceHedrick

New models come with both pressurised and non pressurised baskets with the BB+ now I upgraded to a BBE portafilter, due to it having proper…

I gave my dad my old smart grinder pro when I got a mazzer super jolly, it's quite fine if you use WDT to break up the clumps. Infact he…

The two aren't even in the same league, but let them bang that drum

I don't know why they spout this rubbish all the time, found a sales guy from JB who told me what the real story was when I was looking at…

It's more like the dose control I think than the smart grinder, agreed on everything else

These two machines couldn't be more different, the Barista Pro is very similar to the Barista Express internally just with a touch screen…

I feel you're overblowing the cleaning cycle as it's every 250 odd cycles, considering this is the cheapest 9 bar, PID and 3 way valve…

$326 for me in 2020, was probably at its lowest, but I needed to buy single wall baskets and a BBE portafilter so it took it up to 426…

Nah, it says to only press the steam button to cancel the backflush warning. No other steps

It always seems to happen just between a shot and steaming milk, so it annoys me too... what is in the manual about how to reset it doesn't…

This couldn't be further from the truth, it's way more capable
