Breville is a decent brand, try on this machine. Overall is good except
1. The grind size seems limited, anyway you can upgrade to separate grinder
2. Non 58cm basket, feel bit potong stim

Grind size limited, but for a starts this is very good de. u dont expect same result as a 4k Atomic grinder

No need 58cm, u are not outputing for Cafe volume.

For another RM 6k to achieve what u mentioned. it is not worthy for a starter.

But it is a good start compare to Nestle

Manual? Are you referring to semi automatic?

Erm.. I try to explain as clear as possible.
I have 4 dolces at home. (1 bought, 3 free)

1,it have a lever to adjust the water level according to the capsule.
Click start and it will stop when water is reached.

The other three,they can't adjust the water level needed. So u have to press the water and stop it urself. Too much water=plain. Too little water=bitter/sweet.(and all have plastic housing, feels cheap to touch)

Checked online, the free ones are called "oblo".
I am using "genio" red one.

Everyone will agree semi automatic machine is way better than any-presso in the market. I settled down my home brew pack with less than 2k, China brand. It is good enough for me to start my coffee journey

Really no point using Pods coffee system. Have one myself. Nothing special and pods are not cheap tbh. Just buy some coffee and make your own pourover with cheapo Daiso filter.

I don't call myself a coffee expert, but the espresso which I tested yesterday in Nespresso boutique had quite an oomph.

Those kind which makes you instantly awake on the first sip.

Not sure about the Dolce Gusto though, will hunt for one this coming weekend.

Nespresso and Dolce Gusto are both owned by Nestle. Just targeting different market segments. I have both machines. Both give me better coffee than instant coffee. Nespresso better variety but twice the price. Ultimately, I find the espresso coffee machines produce the best coffee with good quality freshly ground beans.

Fresh ground beans got problem.. if u dont drink often keep too long the bean will lose their aroma

If you got good taste, use pour over. Get high when you smell the aroma of the coffee ground when you brew it yourself. This is how coffee enthusiasts enjoy making coffee. Meanwhile capsule coffee I don't recommend, not enough aroma, maybe taste good for some people because of additional flavor, it's not pure coffee, even the milk capsule is flavored milk. Taste good for normal people but for real coffee drinker can differentiate.

Agreed. Hence I have to settle for DG and Nespresso. I find that I end up using 2 Nespresso Lungo capsules (cost about MYR4) compared to just 1 DG Grande capsule (cost about MYR1.30) to make enough coffee for my taste. So for everyday drinking, suggest DG.
