Great appliance for beginners
Took a bit of time and waste of beans to tweak to the ideal settings. But brews great coffee. No issues so far. Great for playing with if you are learning to perfect your own espresso and Lattes. Recommended!

Cute machine that does the trick.
Does the job but has a smaller water tray and a smaller water cartridge tank at the back. Constantly refilling after about 4 lattes made. Has enough power to heat the milk within around 3 minutes and comes with extra bit's to help temp and get the correct level grind. Am yet to recieve the gold extras cash amount for buying extended warranty, not sure if that part is a scam.

At a glance
The Breville Barista Express Salted Liquorice is a manual coffee machine that grinds fresh beans and brews espresso in one compact unit. It suits couples or families making multiple coffees each day and offers strong control over grind, dose and milk texturing. Its key strengths are convenience and customisation, but it still needs more hands-on skill and cleaning than fully automatic machines.
What it’s great for
- Daily Espresso Making
- Milk-Based Coffee at Home
- Fresh Bean Brewing
- Learning Barista Skills
- Multi-Cup Household Use
Where it works best
- Home Kitchen
- Apartment Kitchen
- Family Home
- Shared Household
Who it’s for
- Home Barista Beginner
- Coffee Enthusiast
- Couple
- Family
- Everyday Espresso Drinker
Things to consider
Compared with premium espresso machines, it offers less automation and fewer advanced tuning features, so consistency depends more on your grind, tamping and milk-texturing technique.
Barista experience suitability
High - strong fit for users who want hands-on espresso making and milk texturing at home
Ease of cleaning score
6/10 - manageable for daily use, but the grinder, steam wand and manual workflow add regular cleaning tasks
Beginner friendliness
7/10 - approachable for new home baristas, though good results still take practice with grind, dose and milk
Counter space suitability
8/10 - compact for an espresso machine with built-in grinder, making it suitable for most kitchen benchtops
Noise level vs category average
About average - the integrated grinder adds noticeable noise during grinding, similar to other manual machines with built-in grinders
Key benefits
- Integrated Conical Burr Grinder: Grinds beans directly before extraction for fresher flavour and a streamlined bench setup.
- 18 Grind Settings: Gives you practical adjustment range to better match different beans and roast styles.
- 15 Bar Pump: Provides the pressure needed for espresso extraction with rich flavour and crema.
- 2 L Water Tank: Supports several coffees before needing a refill, which is useful for couples and families.
- Manual Steam Wand: Lets you hand-texture milk for cappuccinos, lattes and basic coffee art practice.
- Manual Dose Control: Helps you adjust shot volume to suit different cups and coffee preferences.
- Dedicated Hot Water Function: Adds flexibility for long black style drinks and cup warming.
- Compact All-in-One Design: Combines grinder and espresso machine in one unit to save counter space compared with separate appliances.
Q: Is the Barista Express good for first-time home espresso users
A: Yes. The Barista Express is approachable for beginners because the grinder and espresso machine are in one unit. It is still a manual machine, so expect some trial and error with grind setting, dose and milk texturing before results become consistent.
Q: Can it make several coffees before the water tank needs refilling
A: Yes. The 2L water tank suits making multiple coffees in a row for a couple or family before topping up. The trade-off is that it is still a manual machine, so brewing several drinks also means grinding, extracting and steaming each one separately.
Q: Does the integrated grinder save bench space versus separate appliances
A: Yes. The grinder is built into the coffee machine, so you do not need a separate grinder beside it on the benchtop. It still needs room to work comfortably around the portafilter, steam wand and water tank during daily use.
Q: What does the 15 bar pump mean in everyday use
A: The 15 bar pump supplies the pressure needed for espresso extraction. In practice, flavour and crema still depend on the grind, dose and tamp, so the pump rating alone does not guarantee a balanced shot if the coffee is not dialled in.
Q: Is BES870SLQ the same machine as the BES870XL
A: No. BES870SLQ is the Barista Express in the Salted Liquorice finish for the BES870 model sold here. BES870XL is a different market suffix, so packaging, accessories and warranty can vary even when the core machine name looks similar.
Q: Why do shots sometimes taste off until the grinder is dialled in
A: Because fresh beans, roast level and age change how fast water flows through the coffee. This machine gives 18 grind settings and manual dose control, so a few test shots are normal before you land on the setting that suits your beans.
