What it is
The Breville Barista Express espresso machine is an espresso maker delivering third wave specialty coffee at home. This manual espresso machine allows home baristas to go from beans to espresso in under one minute. The integrated conical burr grinder provides dose control grinding, delivering freshly ground coffee directly into the portafilter. Low pressure pre-infusion gradually increases pressure during brewing, drawing out balanced flavors. This home espresso machine also features digital temperature control (PID), allowing water to reach the right temperature for precise espresso extraction. If you're looking for a latte and cappuccino machine for home use, the powerful steam wand enables manual microfoam milk texturing that allows for the creation of latte art. Now you can craft café-quality cappuccinos and lattes in the comfort of your own kitchen.
