I recently upgraded to the Breville Barista Touch BES880BSS Espresso Machine as a replacement for my trusty Gaggia Classic Pro and Baratza Sette 30 grinder setup, which had served me well for the past four years. Switching to the Barista Touch has been a game-changer for my home coffee routine.
Ease of Use:
One of the standout features of the Barista Touch is the seamless integration of grinding, dosing, brewing, and milk frothing all within a single semi-automatic machine. The intuitive touchscreen interface makes managing each step effortless, eliminating the need for multiple separate tools.
Improved Workflow:
With the Gaggia Classic Pro, I often struggled with controlling shot length and had to manually stop the machine, which was less than ideal. The Barista Touch allows me to effortlessly pull long shots and automatically stops after the desired time, providing a more streamlined and hassle-free experience.
Grinding and Portafilter Handling:
Unlike my previous setup with the Baratza Sette 30 grinder, where I frequently needed a dosing funnel to get the grinds perfectly into the portafilter, the Barista Touch handles this process flawlessly. I no longer have to hold the portafilter while grinding, resulting in a cleaner and more efficient workflow.
Consistency and Quality:
While the espresso taste remains on par with my old setup, the Barista Touch offers a higher level of consistency. Long shots now result in fewer wet pucks, and I consistently end up with dry pucks in the knock box after every shot. This consistency is crucial for maintaining the quality of each espresso.
Value for Money:
If you’re in the market for a sub-$1,000 espresso machine and grinder combo, the Breville Barista Touch is an excellent choice. It combines functionality, ease of use, and reliable performance in one sleek package, making it a worthy investment for any home barista.
Conclusion:
Overall, the Breville Barista Touch BES880BSS has significantly enhanced my espresso-making experience. The seamless operation, improved consistency, and thoughtful design make it a standout choice for anyone looking to upgrade their home coffee setup. Highly recommended!

A must have for coffee lovers
Absolutely perfect and very easy to use. My only hang-up is that it is not ideal for larger coffee cups. As you will see in the pictures, if you use a Rae Dunn mug as we do, you will have to pull the tray out and remove the chrome top. Once you have done this, you can tilt the mug and slide the tray back in. Do not make coffee without the tray being inserted, because the unit will discharge water every time and will go all over the countertop.

¡EXCELENTE! Pero hay que aclarar un detalle…
Color: Brushed Stainless SteelVerified Purchase
La máquina está preciosa, por donde la veas y lo que le veas está bien pensado, bien hecho y bien ensamblado. Los accesorios (jarra para espumar, portafiltros, filtros, etc.) son de la misma buena calidad y trae todo lo que necesitas para hacer espressos y cualquier bebida a base de espresso.Hector Ponce¡EXCELENTE! Pero hay que aclarar un detalle…
Reviewed in Mexico on May 30, 2022
Todo fue como lo esperaba: la caja llegó en perfecto estado, todo super bien empacado, es muy fácil de usar aunque no tengas experiencia, pues te va guiando y dando consejos para que ajustes la molienda y el tiempo de extracción. El sistema de la máquina está en inglés o en francés, pero el manual de instrucciones está en español de México así como la documentación de la garantía y la información de contacto y soporte para México.
Todo perfecto hasta que llegué a la razón principal por la que compré la máquina:
A mí me encanta el espresso americano (doble shot de espresso sobre 200 ml. de agua caliente) y esta máquina trae un programa específico para “americano” que emplea una salida de agua caliente que tiene la máquina y que cae directo a la taza antes de que extraiga el café. Lo que Breville no aclara en ningún lado (ni en el manual, ni en las especificaciones, ni en info en la página) es que la elevación de la ciudad en la que uses la máquina afecta la forma en la que sale el agua y ¡vaya que la afecta?!!!
Yo vivo en León GTO, a 1,800 metros sobre el nivel del mar, que es altura media si comparas con otras ciudades en México: CDMX está a 2,250 metros, GDL a 1,575 metros y MTY a 540 metros para que se den una idea.
Lo que sucede es que empieza a salir un chorrito muy controlado y a los pocos segundos empieza a salir vapor por la misma salida y hace que el agua salga como rociada para todos lados y se salpique todo en 30 cm a la redonda (vean el video para que no crean que exagero). Hablé a soporte de Breville y resulta que es un problema que tienen bien identificado y la única solución que me ofrecieron fue regresar la máquina. Volví a llamar un poco más tarde y abrí un ticket de soporte por la página y luego luego me respondieron lo mismo. Lo tienen perfectamente bien identificado y tan saben que no hay forma de arreglarlo que me dijeron que pasaría lo mismo con la salida de agua de cualquier otro modelo. En todos los casos me dijeron que, si la función de obtener agua caliente era importante para mí, me recomendaban regresar la máquina a Amazon y casi que buscarle por otro lado. Claro que super amables y cordiales, pero yo estaba en shock y dudando si algo más le iba a fallar por ese: “¡Ups! ¿A poco hay gente que toma café en las planicies elevadas y en las montañas?” que se aventó Breville.
Afortunadamente hay otras formas de obtener agua caliente de la máquina, pero la función de “americano” es imposible de usar en mi ubicación. La solución es hacer lo que he visto que hacen en algunas cafeterías con máquinas profesionales y es dejar que corra agua sin poner el portafiltro. Para sacar 200 ml de agua caliente se tarda 30 segundos (con el mismo botón de extracción), cuando termina pongo el portafiltros ya listo con el café prensado y todo y vuelvo a extraer 30 segundos para que salga el espresso. Lo único que hay que cuidar es la limpieza de la regadera por la que sale el agua para el portafiltro después de cada extracción para que cuando saques solo agua no arrastre café molido de la extracción anterior.
Lo de la salida de agua fue una mala experiencia y me hizo pensar muy en serio si debía quedarme con la máquina o regresarla. Decidí quedármela pues toooodo lo demás lo hace extraordinariamente bien y en menos de 7 intentos, ya estaba sacando unos espressos super ricos y ni siquiera había comprado buen café, estaba usando el Garat de grano que molemos al momento para la cafetera de goteo. Hoy, a 5 días de recibir la máquina, ya ni me acuerdo que tiene salida para agua caliente y ahora que compré un buen café tostado recientemente, no puedo creer que me esté tomando un café tan rico en mi casa y que me tarde menos de 2 minuntos en hacerlo (el espresso americano).
A mi esposa le gustan los lattes y capuchinos y no se tardó nada en aprender a usar el espumador. Le encanta la textura de la espuma y ya me dijo que guarde el Aeroccino y la Nespresso porque nada que ver el sabor.
Si les sirve de algo, les recomiendo ajustar a 13 la finura del molido, moler por 17 segundos, prensar sin tanta fuerza y extraer por 30 segundos. Son los ajustes con los que estoy obteniedo 18 gr de café molido y aprox. 36 gr de un espresso con buen sabor y buena crema. He notado que si aplico mucha fuerza al prensador, varía mucho la cantidad de café que obtengo, el sabor y la crema, por lo que antes de ajustar molido y tiempo de extracción, les sugiero practicar el prensado hasta que sean consistentes.

Great machine, learn how to use it first
Color: Black TruffleVerified Purchase
I owned a very old DeLonghi and I switched to Breville. I love the machine. First, it heats up fast which helps when guests are waiting. Two, the touchscreen is a good guide when you are preparing your coffee. Three, it gives me a sense of achievement when I am an active participant in the brewing. Although I watched a lot of videos, make sure you get an expert demo in person, to understand the right grind size you want etc. So you can build confidence as a first time Barista. Enjoy your machine!Rashi GoelGreat machine, learn how to use it first
