This machine allows you to grind the coffee beans right before extraction. It’ll help you to brew café quality coffee every day.
Thermocoil Heating System
Barista Express coffee machine uses a thermo-coil heating system which is, in simpler terms, a cast aluminum block coiled around a stainless steel tube. This system gives a quick heat-up time and a really clean taste.
Inbuilt Conical Grinder
Most coffee makers come without a grinder which is a great inconvenience as you’ll have to purchase one from a local store. This isn’t the case with the Barista espresso machine.
It comes with an in-built conical burr grinder that allows you to grind what you need into the portafilter. It is fully adjustable in grind dose and size, a feature that enables you to get the taste that you want.
Volumetric Controls
This coffee machine features single and double shot settings that you can program to customize your shot volume. Low-pressure pre-infusion increases pressure gradually at the start for a more even extraction.
Pressurized and Unpressurized Filters
Beginners and aspiring baristas can make a perfect shot using this machine, thanks to the 2 types of filters it comes with. If a beginner, you can use the 2 dual-wall pressurized filters to regulate pressure and optimize the extraction.
For experienced baristas, this Barista coffee machine comes with 2 single wall non-pressurized filters. These filters allow more room to experiment with different grind amounts, grind size and tamping pressure.
Micro-Foam Milk Texturing
The machine’s steam ward performance enables you to hand-texture micro-foam milk. The process enhances the flavor and creation of latte art.
Optimal Water Pressure
Low-pressure pre-infusion increases gradually, which helps to ensure flavor consistency; thus, you get a balanced tasting espresso shot.
A flat shower head and pre-brew function ensure that water gets optimally distributed through the coffee puck for a perfect espresso.

Digital temperature control ensures that water gets delivered at the right temperature to ensure optimal espresso extraction. The control buttons are easy to see, a feature that makes it easy for you to operate the machine.
