From the zipline documentation: 

"The output here shows that there are 3 bundles available:

  • my-custom-bundle (added by the user)
  • quandl (provided by zipline)
  • quantopian-quandl (provided by zipline)"
What is the difference between the last two?
I'm currently using the quantopian-quandle which by default, when used, triggers callbacks to  handle_data on a daily basis.
Does it include minutely data and if so what is the standard procedure to enable that. IF not, is there a different bundle 
already created which has minutely data?

Thanks

quantopian-quandl is just a mirror of quandl wiki dataset: http://www.zipline.io/bundles.html#default-data-bundles

So given that the wiki dataset seems to be EOD, is there a quandle easily consumable minutely US equity data set outside of the IDE infrastructure, i.e. in zipline?
