Breville Barista Express Espresso Machine with Grinder
The Breville Barista Express is the machine that makes it quick and effortless to achieve superior results.
Starting with freshly roasted beans that have just been ground to the optimal fineness is key to brewing the perfect espresso. Even the greatest espresso maker will make a sub-par shot of espresso when not using the freshest beans available. And the second those coffee beans are ground, they begin to lose precious flavor and aroma. This makes it vitally important to grind your beans immediately prior to making a cup for the best espresso possible.
The Breville Barista Express features a conical burr grinder and allows for more control over the grinding process. The grind size dial lets you adjust from fine to coarse, while the grind amount dial adjusts dosage amount. Once the beans are ground to your specifications, the patented RAZOR Dose Trimming Tool will trim down the puck, which results in a precise dose and consistent extraction. Finally, an espresso gauge actually monitors extraction pressure. The low pressure pre-infusion begins this delicate process by creating this low pressure to first gently expand the grounds, ensuring maximum extraction from every last ground.
Water is another very important feature in high quality espresso machines. The Barista Express features a 1600 Watt thermocoil for maintaining precise water temperature and an electronic PID temperature control for increased temperature stability. A hot water outlet allows for the preheating of cups and for the making of Americanos, if desired. The cup warming tray also maintains the heat of the cups so your espresso doesn't cool before you're finished drinking it.
An Empty Me! tray full indicator, a sleep mode option, an auto-off mode option, and programmable volumetric control all combine to create a machine that is simple to operate and fully customizable to your personal preferences.
