I actually first learned how to pull a shot on the Barista Express, so I have a soft spot for it... I would say when it's time to upgrade, if space is a concern go for the Barista Pro, or just do what I did and get a separate grinder and the Dual Boiler! 😁

I got the sea salt impress ..it’s a fabulous espresso machine and its ease of use with the dose system and tamper is fantastic..I would recommend this machine to anyone starting out on the barista route. My milk skills are somewhat lacking at this point.. Thanks again for an excellent and informative video..😉

I have the express and I absolutely love it. It makes unbelievably good coffee. Wouldn't have anything else. I'm sure mine makes the steam wand quicker than that. I'll have to give a test!

I own a Barista Pro and it has been my favorite purchase of the year. I foresee being quite content with this machine for a while.

@DuBstep115 28 күн бұрын

The finacial jump from Barista pro to noticeably better system is quite high. Like Rancilio Silvia Pro X + 500€ grinder and you are looking at minium of 1700€

What are your experiences with longevity of sage models? I have read so many horrifying stories online that I am holding back from the company. Background information: currently considering whether to get a DeLonghi Dedica Maestro Plus with the Eureka Mignon Specialita and the bottomless porta filter (~750€) or a refurbished Sage Oracle Touch with (only) 12 months of warranty for ~1000€. The latter one sounds intreaguing at first glance, but supposedly has issues with inconsistent grinds and temperature as well as major issues with the decalc program, which tends to kill quite a few of the oracle touches. Also, from my (not really profound) unterstanding of the matter, the significantly better Eureca grinder should result in better Espresso extraction (and is easily sufficient for a way higher end espresso machine in the long run). Any advice is welcome! :)

Hi Tom! Thanks for you videos... really really well done, so well done that I bought a Sage Barista Pro which arrived today :D So I will dismiss my Illy Iperespresso and start using my new Pro :) I've seen all your last videos of the Sage machines, and you always use the double shot basket with 18gr of coffee. As an Italian who drinks 4 coffees a day... having a double espresso each time it would be too much! :D It would be really appreciated if you could make a video using the single basket for a single espresso shot :) At least watching how you dial, it could be a good start to set mine! Thanks in advance ;)

If I had to choose between the three it would be pro! But personally, I prefer a separate grinder.

I ended up with the Brevile colour touch impress model which must be a variant of the Pro for our New Zealand market. I would really like plumbed in water but otherwise it has been very good. Auto milk is great for take away coffee when in a hurry in the mornings. I do wonder how much better the 58mm Oracle model would have been at extracting more flavour and it has front fill for the water. I do find after making 2 coffees in a row when i have guests the 3rd and 4th coffees can vary due to the machine heating up.

The pro for convenience. Any difference in espresso between thermocoil and thermojet? Any issue with pulling back to back shots with the thermojet?

@TomsCoffeeCorner 2 ай бұрын

@@geomcl I feel like the thermocoil has the edge if the machine is thoroughly heated up (20-30 minutes). I generally just make two shots at a time for my wife and I, and either machine is capable of that. Cheers!

@dejedejsson 2 ай бұрын

@@TomsCoffeeCorner Well, I finally chose Pro as I come from an e61 machine and my mainly reason for buying a Breville/Sage was for fast heating, waiting 20-30 minutes takes away the whole meaning of fast heating.

At some point you are going to have to standardize these comparison or machine reviews; kind of like Doug Demiro or matt Watson but for coffee machines. I recall some stocks related youtube channel that have standardized their analysis through an excel sheet; splitting requirements into relevant categories.

Recently I got barista express Even there is click in grind settings, I found I can set value in between clicks My shot time is not stable though 😅 like 15sec to 50sec I wonder I need better grinder for consistent shot time

@vivavibes Ай бұрын

Every different coffee you use will require different grind settings. If you're using the same beans and getting different results, then you may need new burrs for the built-in grinder or a standalone for more consistency.

@sarahabdullatif 28 күн бұрын

As an expert I would need your experience which one of these does give a good taste of expresso! My opinion is impress one but not sure! I want your advice please before purchasing the machine.

@TomsCoffeeCorner 28 күн бұрын

Honestly, I'd say they are very similar. I'd give the edge to the Express, or Express impress for the longer pre-infusion possible, and because it eventually heats the brew group. Also consider the new Ninja Luxe Cafe. It's pretty awesome.

The intelligent dosing seems handy. Is that only on the impress ?

Doesn't the Pro also have Baratza burrs as opposed to the generic burrs in the Express and Impress?

@TomsCoffeeCorner 2 ай бұрын

You’re right, it does. I don’t feel like they make a palpable difference, however to be honest. But, still nice to know that it’s got the most current burrs available.

@TomsCoffeeCorner 2 ай бұрын

It is, but you might have to adjust the inner collar to make it fine enough. I’ve showed that on each of my previous deep dive reviews of these models.

@SunriseLAW 2 ай бұрын

They must sell a lot of those and/or, peeps don't like them after buying because local FB Marketplace is jammed with them, mostly the "Express".

Well, I think this, and the Delong Deda are the two best selling espresso machines worldwide. You have to also realize that Breville has a stronghold on markets like Bath and Body Works, and other appliance stores.

Seems to me that it’s a lot of money for a small amount of coffee, but it seems some folks think it’s worth it?

@TomsCoffeeCorner 2 ай бұрын

Well, it’s a small amount of coffee that packs a punch. Personally, espresso is my favorite form of coffee preparation. In particular, I love milk based drinks like cappuccinos. You cannot make those without espresso.
