🚀 Abunda's Overview

This is our summary and key points to consider based on customer reviews.


The Breville Barista Express is a popular espresso machine that offers a host of features usually reserved for commercial coffee machines. People who are fond of this machine appreciate its all-in-one brewing system, easy maintenance, and high-quality espresso brewing capabilities. However, a consistent critique was about the built-in grinder where it seemed to lack consistency and would make the brewing process longer than it should be.

Pros

  • 🌟 Comprehensive all-in-one brewing system relying on fresh beans for quality espresso.
  • 🌟 High-quality espresso brewing allowing for the creation of a variety of coffee drinks.
  • 🌟 Easy maintenance and customer-friendly features.

Cons

  • 🔻 The built-in grinder has inconsistent results, affecting the quality of the brew.
  • 🔻 Steaming and brewing cannot occur simultaneously, leading to slower brewing process.
  • 🔻 The espresso machine is high maintenance and requires regular cleaning and decaling.

Should I Buy It?

If you are looking for an all-in-one espresso machine that offers great value for money, the Breville Barista Express is a reasonable choice. However, if you are after a quicker brewing process or want less maintenance, you might want to consider other options. Otherwise, keep in mind that buying a separate, more reliable grinder could greatly elevate your coffee experience with this machine.

I did a lot of research before deciding on this brand and model, but I've been so impressed from the very beginning. It took some time to tune in (as will any espresso machine), and as a complete novice learning on this machine, I had my frustrations, but the machine is so intuitive and there are so many helpful videos out there I quickly got the hang of it. The grinder seems excellent (given it doesn't cost hundreds on its own), everything you need comes in the box (and good quality accessories too), and it's just such a perfect little home use espresso maker when you're not trying to churn out lots of coffees back to back (given the single motor, you can't steam milk while pulling a shot, so not nearly as fast as the commercial or more expensive machines if you want efficiency in making lots of coffees, but that's not my use case). I love how tunable the machine is yet how automated it can be if you choose so (don't have to time your shots, etc.). For home use a few times a day, I really can't say enough good things about how perfect this machine is, especially at such a relatively affordable price point compared to the other highly rated options out there. That said, I'm about 16 months in to ownership and it started to act up. I ran the clean, and then the descale, and just generally tried some troubleshooting, and I kept having intermittent issues. But I knew from reviews that this is generally a long lasting machine and this shouldn't be anywhere near end of life for it (or it wouldn't be getting nearly this good of a review from me). Some people said Breville was helpful, even after the warranty period, so I did some research, though I identified which component may be going bad, and reached out to see if they would send me a replacement part. To my utter amazement, they instead sent me the packaging to ship my machine to them and have it repaired at no cost to me months past the end of my warranty. Huge kudos to Breville; this further confirms what I believed, that this product should last for years and Breville stands by the quality of their product. Seriously, making coffees for one household? Not a professional barista? Just love good coffee and want to be able to make that consistently? This is the one. ... show more

  • A Coffee Lover's Dream Come True
Color: Brushed Stainless Steel
This is an incredible product because it's easy to use and conveniently sized. Its attractive design adds a touch of elegance to my kitchen. The quick heat-up time is impressive and the espresso flavor it delivers is simply superb. One of the best features is the milk frother - it works like a charm. And let's not forget about the precise grind settings, which allow me to get my coffee just the way I like it. In short, it's a fantastic espresso machine that's worth every penny. ... show more

  • Well built machine, easy to use, great coffee!
Color: Brushed Stainless Steel
Having never made Espresso before, nor having used an Espresso maker, I did a lot of research into the best maker I could find for a reasonable cost before purchasing. I watched videos of people who have owned this machine for several years, and by and large they were positive. I decided to go for it. Having used it for a while now, I'm impressed with the quality of the resultant coffee drink, the ease of steaming the milk, and the quality of the whole bean grind. The machine is heavy. It's all metal, except for some components like the water drip tray, grind funnel etc. The water tank is the width of the machine and large enough to make many cups (including steaming the milk) before being refilled. The learning curve for just using it to make some espresso is pretty easy. Some people have complained one cannot make a cup and steam milk at the same time, but for me it's not a problem. I do the milk first, then the coffee. So for a beginner, it's a great investment, but for someone who really enjoys the whole process of finding that perfect cup, there's plenty of options to play with. How fine the bean grind is, how much to dispense into the funnel, even adjustments of the grinder blade itself are adjustable. Your desired setting can even be saved for one-button recall. The machine is ready to be used from being turned off in about 30 seconds. Steaming (in the provided little pitcher) takes upwards of a minute depeiding on what you like, and actually making the coffee is about 10-15 seconds. So a session to make two cups for my wife and I (including cleaning) takes maybe 10 minutes. But for me, being able to experience a Cortado like we had in Spain that 10 minutes is well worth spending! ... show more
