    Barista Pro is the best

    Reviewed by - October 19, 2020

    I bought this machine 2 weeks ago and it change my mornings! It heat up very quickly so i don’t waste time when i’m in a hurry. I can also have hot water by turning the button on the right aide of the machine. The grinder is very good, i can set it up for a coarse, or a fine grind with the 30 different grinder settings. The coffee is perfect every time!!

    Coffee next level!

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - November 27, 2021

    For beginners trying to enjoy coffee at home. The Breville Barista Pro is a must have! Ive been practicing latte art for 2 weeks and now can do some basic patterns easily with this coffee machine. With grinder and steam wand in one machine, it saves a lot of space. Sea salt is really a great colour which matches all kind of bench tops. Loving it!

    Perfect Coffee Machines at Home

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - December 11, 2024

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently purchased this espresso machine, and I’m thrilled with its performance and design! The machine itself is sleek, with a modern aesthetic that fits perfectly in my coffee corner. The integrated grinder (Baratza) is a game-changer—it ensures fresh coffee grounds every time, which truly elevates the flavor. One of my favorite features is how user-friendly the controls are. From grinding to brewing, everything feels intuitive and well-thought-out. The steam wand is powerful and works like a charm for frothing milk, making it easy to craft a café-style cappuccino or latte. Cleaning and maintenance are also straightforward. The accessories, like the tamper station and included tools, make the process seamless and organized. It’s great for anyone looking to improve their home coffee setup, whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned barista. Overall, I’d highly recommend this machine for its quality, functionality, and ease of use. A fantastic investment for coffee lovers!

    Fantastic machine with a couple of quirks!

    Reviewed by - September 7, 2020

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Breville Barista Pro is a semi-high end 'Café Quality' coffee maker. Unpacking the machine was borderline 'fun', the way all the individual elements were packaged/labeled. Setting them all out, you are pretty much covered for any brewing scenario! First thing you'll notice is the quality of the machine and all the metal components. They are well built and sturdy. However, in contrast, a couple of the plastic pieces don't inspire the greatest of confidence. In setting up the machine, first off, you need to soak and prep the filter. No problem, same with pretty much any machine of this caliber. Once soaked and rinsed, clipped it into the filter holder, instructions suggested turning the grey dial for 2 months ahead to remind you to change the filter. This was my first issue with the plastic. Couldn't get it to move at all by hand, even though it 'should' rotate smoothly. Finally got it into position by forcing a towel through the loop to add some grip to my finger. Not a huge deal at all, but as step 2 in the instructions, it was a little infuriating (but doesn't affect how this machine works overall). Time for coffee! Filled the grinder with some tasty Lavazza beans. The grinder, with removable hopper and automatic grind control, is superb! Works fantastically, you have a grind coarseness adjustment and time of grind. You push the basket 'into' the machine to turn on the grinder. It would be really nice if there was a little LED light that came on with the grinder motion. The backing to the grind area is black rubber/plastic and the grounds are dark brown, so it was tough to see how much grounds were in the basket. The tamper is nicely weighted and makes tamping down the grounds a breeze, and the included stainless steel trimmer levels off the basket nicely. The large capacity (68fl oz) water tank on the back means that you don't have to keep filling the machine up every time you use it. However, as noted at the beginning of the review, here again, the plastic for the handle on the water tank is quite flimsy and doesn't inspire confidence when the tank is full. Inserting the basket with your grounds into the machine to brew your espresso is very tight. Once it's in there, it's not going anywhere for sure. The ThermoJet Heating system heats up in around 3 seconds, meaning your coffee is coming hot and fast! No hanging around for over a minute waiting for the system to heat up. Here you have almost instant espresso! There are 4 filter baskets included 2 regular and 2 dual walled, for one cup and two cup doses. We had some difficulty changing out the filters from the basket, no tool provided really helped with this (the Razor Precision Dose trimmer was closest, but didn't want to damage anything). Ended up using a towel and a screw driver to change out the baskets, as they are in there tight. Thankfully, it's not something we'll need to do often, but wanted to note it. On to the steamer/dedicated hot water outlet. The multidirectional steam nozzle is incredibly handy and versatile. It's nice to be able to steam milk and move it around easily. I still have some work to do to get the silky micro-foam texture (as labeled on the box!), but overall, very satisfied with how the milk heated and foamed with this machine. Having a dedicated hot water outlet is a nice feature too if you want to just top up your coffee quickly with hot water. Overall, I am very impressed with this machine, it has a great build quality with all of the metal components, the very first espresso out of the gate was superb, the grinder is very proficient, and the milk steamer is fantastic.

    Fantastic machine that makes great coffee.

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - August 31, 2024

    I don't have much experience with other machines but this machine is exceptional. I had an old Breville barista express that was 14 years old. I always struggled to produce good coffee on it. The new barista express pro is very easy to produce amazing coffee and has so many adjustable parameters to ensure your coffee is perfect every shot. It took me 5 adjustments and I was producing amazing coffee. It is a fully manual machine but once mastered you can pump a good latte out in about 2 mins. My last machine lasted 14 years so hopefully this one will too.

    I freaking love this machine!

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - September 10, 2023

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just got my Barista Pro this week. I think went a lil overboard with accessories maybe. I don’t know lol. It’s my first true espresso machine well actually second. I thought I would save some coins and get the Solis Grind and Infuse. It was a gorgeous machine but it was just sooooooooo frustratingly inconsistent. The Barista Pro is far superior and definitely worth every penny. I’m working on my latte art lol. But this machine is excellent and im so glad i chose it. I have had some excellent shots and the steam wand is powerful.

    Used Machine

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - January 21, 2023

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I cannot honestly believe how this machine showed up at my door. Coffee grounds in the grinder, water in the water tank, coffee all over the tray, unknown crusty material on the tray. The portafilter was missing. The components were all unpacked and randomly placed in the box. When paying this much for something that you expect to be brand new this was severely disappointing. I couldn’t even tell you how the machine operates because I couldn’t even use it nor would I have. Who knows how long the water was in the water tank/filter.

    More than just a great cup of coffee........

    Reviewed by - September 5, 2020

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Not only does the Barista Pro by Breville make a great coffee, it is also a very pretty accessory on my kitchen counter. Designed to grind the right amount of coffee (19-22 Grams) on demand for the perfect shot of espresso, this model’s ThermoJet heating system and its 3 second heat up time allows for a quick brewed fresh full-flavored coffee anytime that you have a minute. The precision and temperature infusion built into the system made it easy for me to make a good shot of espresso on my first try. Instant steam is interchangeable with the 3 second heat up and can be used to warm your cup or froth and micro-foam milk. The Barista Pro comes in 4 model colors – stainless steel, sea salt, smoked hickory, and black truffle. It has a full LCD display that animates grinding and extracting progress. Grinding of beans, the temperature of the water, and the speed of the espresso pour can all be easily adjusted. My first cup almost came out perfect, but with a few minor adjustments the second and third cups came out even better. The porta filter comes with 4 different configurations. One for a single cup of whole bean grind and one for double cups, with an additional single and double for ground coffee. Packaged with the Barista Pro is “The Razor” - a precision dose trimming tool, a 480 ml stainless steel milk jug, single and dual wall cups, filter baskets, a water filter, and a cleaning kit. The water tank holds 67 fl ozs of water and the bean hopper holds ½ lb of whole beans. This unit operates at 1680 watts on a 220-240 voltage. It is 13.78” wide and 16.14” deep and 16.14” high. It comes with a 2-Year Limited Product Warranty. This is a quality product that is impressive. It delivers what it is supposed to do in a very efficient manner. It takes a fraction of the time to grind and brew with the Barista Pro than it does to grind and brew with my traditional drip coffee maker. I am looking forward to honing my micro foaming of milk and learning to make a variety of coffee desert drinks. I definitely recommend this product if you are looking for a good espresso maker, I hope that you will give this one a try.

    Breville barista pro

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - November 16, 2022

    The barrista pro is the best coffee machine I have ever purchased. I've had this appliance just under a month but I use it every day. The fresh smell of the coffee beans throughout the house while making my beverage is amazing. This appliance is very simple and easy to use my whole family can use it( so they make their own and not rely on me) I love and recommend the barrista to all my family and friends who also have the privilege of testing and tasting the quality of this machine..I absolutely love it thankyou😁
