My dad asked me to thank you for this video! He saw this video and got the machine and he's been really happy with the purchase!

[@p.e.5336]

Thank you for this! The initial reviews of a product are nice, but we rarely get a follow up video on the product. Really helpful ❤

[@leeweber85]

Just upgraded to this machine and I’m happy! It’s way better organized and so much less mess than my previous machine. Super handy having the grinder dose directly into the portafilter, and thus far has been accurate with its measurement. Wish it had a dedicated spot to hold the dosing funnel when not in use, but not a big deal. Just sits on top or on the drip tray. Pucks knock out intact very easily and dry.

Just bought one tonight and found this video. Totally made me feel like I made the right choice! Thank you!

[@MoreGeorge]

Brilliant video mate

I have the Barista Touch Impress, the steam wand is very impressive giving you an auto steam or manual steam option and the built in grinder has the Baratza M2 Conical burrs which are the best and have 30 grind settings! The fact that I can select to steam 3 different milk types is also very nice, Oatmilk, Almond Milk, or Dairy Milk. And lastly the Thermojet heater only takes 3 seconds to get the machine ready for steaming!

i used mine for 10 years and retired it (still have it) for the Breville Barista Pro. They have both paid for themselves several times over. Technically, these are not single boiler machines, but do have a single thermoblock and thermojet respectively for instant water heating. Cheers.

I returned mine after a week of ownership. The unit could not reach the appropriate pressure when extracting espresso. I made around 20 coffee extractions, played with the grind settings, tamping pressures, and different coffee beans. Finally found a video on how to check machine for pressure, and it maxed out at 50%. This is not a cheap machine for a lower tier espresso machine. Decided to return it, and spend more on a high end, reputable machine. I’m sure it’s a fine machine if it works properly.

Nice video mate, great machines I must say. 👍

[@MoreGeorge]

thanks so much for watching!

[@tranminhloan7103]

Thanks for this video. Do you feel that the steam dial is getting hard and stiff to turn especially when the machine is turned on? I am not sure if this is normal operation or an issue.

[@SanchezFive7]

Great review video. I just bought a Barista Pro and I’m hoping it also stands the test of time.

[@TheJuicyVlog]

great choice, I’m sure it will!

[@joeydunkle]

To help with the single boiler problem, I have started steaming the milk first and then pulling the shot

[@MoreGeorge]

I've heard of people doing that, however my coffee shop owner friend was horrified at the suggestion 😄 do you find that your milk consistency and pouring is affected by leaving it standing for much longer?

[@jimwocha4949]

I have recently read a review saying the express is not ideal for speciality coffee due to the pressure being set at 13 bar rather than 9. You seem to be using specialty coffee however. Have you modded rhe machine in any way to adjust brew pressure or do you not really find this an issue?

[@Xtsco11]

Had mine 4 years too, it seems only barista heads like us seem to maintain it properly the key is flushing it back when needed and grinder cleaning . I got mine for £373 on Amazon in 2019 never seen it cheaper since!

[@TheJuicyVlog]

that is an incredible price!!

[@GMan-yg1og]

4 to 6 coffees a day and it hasn't skipped a beat, unlike your heart.

[@napoleonthe14th48]

Nice one, thank you.

[@orlandimatteo88]

Since you make 4+ coffees a day im Wondering if you keep the machine on all day?

[@steelkst]

Perfect machine but get a duo temp pro and a DF54. Much better results.

[@Xrey-tw4sv]

Can it make just a regular cup of coffee ? not an expresso or latte

[@rishabhnagpal5548]

Pour out an espresso shot, add hot water. There’s your regular coffee

[@thisnthat6972]

Fake reviewer this KZbinr is totally lying

[@asafxcore1231]

Hey there! Ty for the video Maybe you can help me. I need help with my new and perfect Berville Model 875 coffee machine. Specifically, I’m looking for guidance on best practices for brewing with Starbucks medium roast coffee beans. Any tips or instructions are welcome. The number in the area where you put the coffee beans is 3, on the outer roller the number is 7, the pressure to produce coffee is in the right area but the aroma is still not there and I have already broken down 3 kilos of coffee beans 🫠
