Never seen someone do a video for this machine. After a year of drinkable lattes, I’ve finally made a great cup thanks to all these details. So thankful!!
I’ve been watching the family blogs since middle school, I’m now 25 with a 4 month old girl of my own! I won’t lie, I’ve been seriously struggling with motherhood and the vlogs give me a lot of hope that it won’t always be so hard! Thank you to you and Judy and of course the girls for all the vlogs! I even have a video of my girl in her boppy pillow “talking” to Judy on the TV while I was washing bottles! ❤️ also have been making coffee at home now that I have a WFH job so this came at the perfect time! Planning to make Lumpia this weekend and pizza with my husband!
Benji, you might want to make videos about: 1. Camping must have 2. Camping food for kids haul 3. Road trip snacks haul 4. Emergency or Go bag 5. Emergency food haul
I bought this machine last year based on your videos. It is a wonderful machine. I purchased it through Williams Sonoma and waited to catch it on sale. Luckily, they ran a 20% off sale for Mother's Day. If you are thinking about purchasing it, it's worth it at the sale price!!!
Wow i thought i knew how u made coffee before i had no idea! That milk steam is so cool! Love how u just keep making coffees to perfect your art! Slow and small movements from what i remember watching that coffee expert! You guys will eventually move to decaf the amount of coffee u guys drink!❤
Great tips, you might want to consider pulling the shot then steaming the milk! Steamed milk loses its texture pretty quickly as it sits. It will help a lot with the latte art!
This would make less waste and more consistent results. The wdt tool should be used kind of like a mixing tool to break clumps and create even dispersion instead of poking holes.
I have worked and studied espresso for months and just could never get anything to go right. My espresso always tasted sour. Your video (in one go) has me making so much better lattes. Thank you for your insights and putting this out there. The automated features are great, but I really appreciate you showing your milk steaming technique. What a huge help!
Thank you Benji Great Job showing everything! You know our son Jacob Lincoln and Charis and he is a coffee pro just like you! We have the Breville machine right under the one you have and I am learning how to use it.
What brand of coffee beans would you reco? I just purchased my first espresso machine (got inspired by how Judy reacts when she taste your coffee 😊) I really don't have any idea... just want to have a coffee shop feels that usually i didn't get with keurig.. thanks!
Started getting into coffee with my boyfriend ever since we found a delicious coffee (philz philtered soul) that inspired us to make it at home. Still got tons of practice to do
You’ve done a great job! The tapping is critical but how do you control it and did you look at the pressure or does the machine show the pressure range?
Have you tried the aeropress? It's been fun and did take a lot of practice. I have to have decaf and I make full caf for my husband so I need the bean flexibility.
Ah still haven’t bit the bullet on buying the machine, it’s on sale too at William Sonoma. Ok, so my question is. There was another one of your videos I watched where you said you had Judy’s espresso settings set on the machine. Could you go over yours and Judy’s settings with someone who may not have a scale to use. I see that there’s possibly a clock counting seconds.
Benji, thank you so much for sharing the tips. Question about your grinder, you have the setting at size 5, mine is about 12. If I go less than 12, and use dual wall then the it doesn’t seem to drip at all. Do you have any tips?
Get yourself a single dose hopper. And weigh your beans out ahead of time. I have not found any difference with a wdt vs just tapping the grind even, and then tamping. Especially with a puck. Everything else is exactly as I do it. Clean machine and quality fresh coffee are the two biggest mistakes anyone can make.
Benji, this may be too picky about the process and possibly a bunch of BS but I was taught to keep the portafilter off the machine until you're ready to pull the shots to avoid burning the grind. Could be more of a higher frequency machine use at a coffee shop rule? Anyone else learn this tip?
Ok but what grind size did he use 😒 skipped a very important step. One that can ruin the taste meaning all else he’s doing would be in vain but overall amazing video! Wish he made one with grind size instructions . 😒
I set my grind size to 5 but it was barely extracting. Did I tamp it too hard? I didn’t have the spring loaded one and I also didn’t have the whisk thing to aerate or even out the grinds

It gets easier over time and I hope you enjoy these sweet priceless moments.
I love coffee but I used the manual espresso machine & my lattes come out yummy still using premium ingredients. Thank you for ur step by step video 👍

Wow I'm not a coffee drinker but this Latte you made sure does look delicious!
It is!

Thanks for the tips and angles esp with steaming the milk - never could grasp but i think i can now !
Hi benji! I wonder what happened to your breville oracle? Btw thank you for the tip for steaming the milk. Love it! Thanks benji
Great tips, you might want to consider pulling the shot then steaming the milk! Steamed milk loses its texture pretty quickly as it sits. It will help a lot with the latte art!
Yeah that’s always the dilemma. Shot or the milk???
someone, a barista, also commented on one of the vlogs that they recommend milk first before the coffee… it’s quite confusing
Love your passion for food and nutrition !
Oh wow! This series is very fun! Keep em coming ❤❤❤🎉🎉
Looks yummy!! Benji, can you do a miso butter recipe please 🙏🏽
Yes!
Consider weighing your beans before grinding them. This way your beans stay fresh in a container (or the bag) and you waste less
This would make less waste and more consistent results. The wdt tool should be used kind of like a mixing tool to break clumps and create even dispersion instead of poking holes.

I have the breville as well and I didn’t know there was a manual setting 😂I just made it and what a game changer! The foam was perfect!!!
Thank you Benji Great Job showing everything! You know our son Jacob Lincoln and Charis and he is a coffee pro just like you! We have the Breville machine right under the one you have and I am learning how to use it.
i’m really enjoying your vlogs! keep them coming.
I will
Thank you for an amazing video I learned so much just watching that 👏🏼
Thanks for the vid. What grind fineness did you use on the grind?
this came at the perfect time! i just set up my breville bambino, awesome tips benji
Been waiting for this video since watching you make them in the vlogs! 😊❤
Thank you so much for this video. I just got a Breville and have been having trouble with any kind of latte art.
Benji love watching you !
Your so proud of what you do !!!!!
I just love food
Thank you for this! I’ve been eyeing coffee machines so I can make lattes and you got me convinced! Haha thanks Benji!
You will thank me once you make these!
Yes, one of the better milk tutorials yet. So good. Love how you kept trying the art. Would you please let me know what coffee sub u use.
Found the website! Thank you again.
Thanks. Yeah I gotta add that.
I bought this through Amazon’s warehouse for $500. It’s been a great purchase
What grind setting are you using?
Great video! What is the grind size that you use?
If you like iced coffee, I highly recommend trying your espresso affogato (with a scoop of vanilla ice cream).
Sounds so delicious right now.
How do you set your machine, what grind size, milk temperature, etc?
What brand of coffee beans would you reco? I just purchased my first espresso machine (got inspired by how Judy reacts when she taste your coffee 😊) I really don't have any idea... just want to have a coffee shop feels that usually i didn't get with keurig.. thanks!
Just got an espresso machine and was totally inspired by Benji 😆
😎
just brought the touch impress. so looking forward to using auto and manual. loved this video by the way. love the colour of the crema. yum
What grind setting do you have it at and your inner burr setting
Started getting into coffee with my boyfriend ever since we found a delicious coffee (philz philtered soul) that inspired us to make it at home. Still got tons of practice to do
That looks delicious!
So delicious
How coarse/fine is your coffee? (What number on the Breville Barrista Touch?
You’ve done a great job! The tapping is critical but how do you control it and did you look at the pressure or does the machine show the pressure range?
Just by weight and manually stop it. No pressure on the touch.
We have the Delonghi version of coffee machine and I agree, once you have practiced the espresso and milk process, it is better than most cafe’s!!
Yup
Would love to try your expert coffee benji!!❤
That would be awesome to work a cafe one day.
What is the grind size of the beans?
love my barista touch, before I pull my shot I love to add Irish cream syrup in the cup.
what's the grind size
What level of grind do you put your coffee
❤Thank you for these great tips !☕️👍
Have you tried the aeropress? It's been fun and did take a lot of practice. I have to have decaf and I make full caf for my husband so I need the bean flexibility.
Love the aeropress
Thanks for this I've been trying to make mine and with my machine and I'm horrible. Guess I gotta buy a weigher
What number u have dial it in to get the right grind?
Ah still haven’t bit the bullet on buying the machine, it’s on sale too at William Sonoma. Ok, so my question is. There was another one of your videos I watched where you said you had Judy’s espresso settings set on the machine. Could you go over yours and Judy’s settings with someone who may not have a scale to use. I see that there’s possibly a clock counting seconds.
Question - do you have to have a scale? Is it really life-changing?
Benji, thank you so much for sharing the tips. Question about your grinder, you have the setting at size 5, mine is about 12. If I go less than 12, and use dual wall then the it doesn’t seem to drip at all. Do you have any tips?
So hard. You have to grab an extra bag of beans you like and keep trying different settings. That’s what I did. The price to dial it in.
What machine are you using in this video?
Like father like son (you both slurp you coffee) 😂
Good job, but you are missing the pre infusion step when you manually pull your shot.
I need to get into that thanks.
Yummm 😋
Get yourself a single dose hopper. And weigh your beans out ahead of time. I have not found any difference with a wdt vs just tapping the grind even, and then tamping. Especially with a puck.

Clean machine!
Saving all my money for that machine. 😅
You dropped it on the art lol
Benji, this may be too picky about the process and possibly a bunch of BS but I was taught to keep the portafilter off the machine until you're ready to pull the shots to avoid burning the grind. Could be more of a higher frequency machine use at a coffee shop rule? Anyone else learn this tip?
I’ll try this. Thanks for sharing.
So all in with machine, tools, extras etc. $1200.00. Fresh premium beans, 20 bucks. Fresh milk. Clean up...One more appliance on my counter.!? Wow!
Worth it
Very unnecessary to switch beans out after a week. They will stay perfectly fresh for at least 20 days so long as they are sealed. 30 days max
Check out Emilee Bryant and Lance Hedrick latte art tutorial videos. You will improve so much so fast.
Ok but what grind size did he use 😒 skipped a very important step. One that can ruin the taste meaning all else he’s doing would be in vain but overall amazing video! Wish he made one with grind size instructions . 😒
I was looking for grind size as well!
@@MichiGoonThe Grind size is 5 check the screen 9:10
I set my grind size to 5 but it was barely extracting. Did I tamp it too hard? I didn’t have the spring loaded one and I also didn’t have the whisk thing to aerate or even out the grinds
First latte art was ass... 😅
Cafe arte fart
