The aroma of coffee roasting in the morning may be one of the best scents to ever exist. If you can’t live without your morning fuel (but spend too much money at coffeehouses), the Breville Barista Express is for you.
This coffee-making powerhouse makes you feel as though you’re a professional barista without a single day of training. It’s everything you need to make craft coffee in one sleek, compact kitchen appliance. Not only can you grind and create powerful espresso, but you can use the steamer to make lattes, cappuccinos and macchiatos as well. Pro tip: The espresso makes for the basis of an excellent espresso martini.
There is a learning curve that comes with crafting the perfect cup of Joe on the Breville. It may take a few tries to get the grind, dose and temperature of the machine to the perfect setting, so don’t be discouraged if your first few tries taste like bitter remnants from the bottom of an oil barrel. There is a plethora of easy instructional videos from Breville and helpful at-home users to guide your experimentation.
Soon you’ll be able to wow your friends and guests with cafe-quality coffee in your own home. Happy learning!
