- Is the Café Roma good for a beginner?
- Yes. The dual dial and manual shot control are simple to learn, and the included tamper and jug remove extra purchases. Expect a few weeks of practice before shots are consistent.
- Does it come with a grinder?
- No. It is an espresso machine only, so you need a burr grinder and fresh beans to get good results. Pre-ground coffee works but tastes flatter.
- Can it use pods as well as ground coffee?
- Yes. It ships with single-shot, double-shot and pod filters, so it takes loose grounds or ESE-style pods.
- How does it compare with the Breville Bambino?
- The Bambino adds a PID, a solenoid valve and faster steaming in a smaller body. The Café Roma is simpler and cheaper, with a more manual workflow and less temperature control.
- How often do I need to descale it?
- Every two to three months with normal use, or sooner with hard water. Breville sells a descaling solution, and the process takes about 20 minutes.
- What is in the box?
- The machine, three stainless steel filters, a stainless milk jug, a plastic tamper, a measuring scoop and a cleaning tool.
