Coffee Shop at Home!

First, let me just say WOW! I am so impressed with the Barista Pro, I may never go to a coffee shop again. There's just no need to. I can make any coffee drink I want with the Barista Pro! So far I've made espresso, cappuccino, americano, latte and frappe. It's so easy to use, very intuitive and you can change your settings to suit your needs. There are automatic settings already set on the machine but you can easily change them. You can adjust the fineness of your grind, and how much it outputs by adusting the amount of time it grinds coffee into the portafilter. The grinder itself is a thing of beauty! A sturdy conical burr grinder that delivers a consistent and superior grind, every time! Very easy to remove for light cleaning. I love how sleek this looks and how well it performs. I have a few small problems with it, but not enough to take off a star from my review. First problem: The baskets that sit inside of the portafilter are very hard to get out. Any time I have to change one, I spend a good five minutes trying to remove the one currently occupying it. Second Problem: There is a storage tray that sits behind the drip tray. I thought it would be a great place to store the other filter baskets and cleaning supplies for the machine. After a few uses I realized that condensation was accumulating in the storage basket. I assume purging the steamer into the drip tray might be causing this. Third and final issue: The handle that flips up on the water reservoir is over engineered and seems flimsy. Other than that I have no issues with this fine machine. It is an amazing appliance that will save me thousands on to go coffee. It comes with a variety of cleaning accessories and everything you will need to maintain and get the most out of your Barista Pro.

Im new to the espresso world. Had to google best machines and breville is in every list. I bought the PRO and I LOVE IT! I always assumed coffee was always bitter until I bought this machine. Not only was the shot not bitter, but after i poured in the steamed milk, i never had to use sugar. I love the creamy and foamy texture it produces. The only negative i have to say is that i wished it had the option or ability to produce a hotter pour. If not mistaken i believe the less expensive breville bambino plus had it. Other than that, i believe this is the go to machine. I would suggest this over the barista express bcuz the PRO can deliver a faster pour so the fresh shot of crema is in tact.

Cheap looking

I was thrilled when I first received my Breville Barista Pro. I had waited months for the color I wanted. Four months after it starts making a strange noise and water stops flowing completely. I send it to Breville for maintenance and receieved it back fairly promptly. Now, all the lettering for the display buttons are fading. It appears they are just stamped. Only eight months of use and it looks poorly made and cheap. I expected a more sturdy product for a machine I considered an investment. Soon only I will be able to use it because nothing will be identified. Regret this purchase.
