Very easy to use and great quality
One criticism would be the multiple plastic components that the coffee passes through. For a high quality product like this, I’d expect a metal filter, not plastic which is not ideal for hot fluid to pass through.

Breville Barista Express Impress Review
Excellent coffee machine – easy to use and great results Very happy with the Breville Barista Express Impress. It makes excellent coffee and is much easier to use than I expected. The built-in grinder and assisted tamping system take a lot of the guesswork out of getting the right amount of coffee and a consistent tamp, which makes a big difference to the end result. Once you get the grind setting adjusted to suit your beans, it produces a really good espresso with plenty of flavour and a nice crema. The steam wand also works very well for making cappuccinos and lattes. The Sea Salt colour looks great on the bench and the overall build quality feels very solid. It still gives you the experience of making a proper barista-style coffee, without making the process overly complicated. Very pleased with the purchase and would definitely recommend it to anyone wanting to make café-quality coffee at home.

I want to love it!
As the title said I really want to love it. There have been a few issues with the buttons along the way. And noisey milk throffer/warmer - but learning to get that noise down.. rookie error!

The Perfect Coffee Machine For our Family
Our Breville Express Impress makes smooth, easy coffee, and we love that it still feels hands‑on. We still prefer manual machines because they give us more control, a calmer routine, and a more personal flavour experience.

Great Machine, Great Coffee and Easy to use
Have had the machine for about 3weeks and it took me a few goes to get a good coffee with the beans I wanted to use but now it simple . There is a lot of tips and tricks on social media to get the best out of the machine and so far they have improved the coffee taste further

Impress(ive) Coffee Machine
I wanted a machine that was consistent and thanks to the tamper system the guess work has gone. The Barista Express Impress produces a great cup of coffee and the milk frothing is easy to master. Thanks Breville.

At a glance
The Breville Barista Express Impress is a manual coffee machine for home users who want café-style espresso with more guidance during prep. Its assisted tamping, built-in grinder and fast 40-second heat-up make daily coffee easier while still feeling hands-on. It is best for households making regular milk and espresso drinks. The trade-off is that it offers less automation and customisation than more premium dual-boiler or fully automatic machines.
What it’s great for
- Home Espresso Making
- Daily Flat Whites
- Latte Art Practice
- Hands-On Coffee Brewing
- Small Household Coffee Routines
Where it works best
- Home Kitchen
- Apartment Kitchen
- Family Benchtop
- Entertaining Area
Who it’s for
- Home Barista Beginner
- Espresso Enthusiast
- Flat White Lover
- Daily Coffee Drinker
- Style-Conscious Household
Things to consider
This machine still requires manual brewing and milk texturing, so it is less convenient than fully automatic models and offers fewer high-end temperature and workflow controls than specialist dual-boiler machines.
Barista experience suitability
High - hands-on machine with guided prep that still lets users control grind, extraction and milk texturing
Ease of cleaning score
7/10 - integrated grinder and manual steam wand add cleanup, but the guided prep design helps keep the workflow manageable
Beginner friendliness
8/10 - assisted tamping and built-in grinding make it more approachable than many traditional manual espresso machines
Counter space suitability
8/10 - compact footprint suits most kitchen benchtops while still combining grinder and espresso machine in one unit
Noise level vs category average
About average - the built-in grinder adds noticeable sound, but this is typical for manual machines with integrated grinding
Key benefits
- Assisted Tamping: Helps create a more consistent puck with less guesswork during espresso preparation.
- Integrated Conical Burr Grinder: Grinds fresh beans on demand for better flavour and simpler workflow.
- 25 Grind Settings: Gives you room to fine-tune extraction for different beans and roast styles.
- 40-Second Thermocoil Heat-Up: Reaches brewing temperature quickly for faster morning coffee prep.
- PID Temperature Control at 93 °C: Helps maintain stable brewing temperature for more consistent espresso extraction.
- Manual Steam Wand at 130 °C: Produces silky microfoam suited to flat whites, lattes and latte art practice.
- 9 Bar Pump: Delivers the pressure needed for rich espresso with a proper crema.
- 2 L Water Tank and 250 g Bean Hopper: Supports multiple coffees before you need to refill or top up beans.
Q: Is this coffee machine suitable for beginners who want manual control?
A: Yes. The Barista Express Impress simplifies grinding, dosing and tamping, so it is easier to learn than a fully manual setup. It still needs hands-on grind adjustment, shot timing and milk texturing, so there is a learning curve.
Q: How many coffees can it make before refilling water or beans?
A: The 2L water tank and 250g bean hopper suit several coffees before refilling, which works well for daily household use. The exact number depends on your dose, shot size and whether you are making black coffee or milk drinks.
Q: Does the steam wand make proper microfoam for flat whites?
A: Yes. The manual steam wand reaches 130 degrees C and is designed to create silky microfoam for flat whites, cappuccinos and latte art. Milk texture depends on technique, so expect a little practice rather than one-touch frothing.
Q: Will it fit on a smaller kitchen benchtop comfortably?
A: Yes. This model has a compact footprint for a manual coffee machine, so it suits most kitchen benchtops. Leave practical space to access the 2L water tank, fill the bean hopper and move a milk jug around the steam wand.
Q: How much control do you get over espresso extraction here?
A: Breville Barista Express Impress gives you useful control over espresso extraction with 25 grind settings, PID temperature control at 93 degrees C and a 9 bar pump. It is still a manual machine, so the result depends on your bean choice and dial-in.
Q: Is the Breville Barista Express Impress fast enough for mornings?
A: Yes. Breville Barista Express Impress reaches brewing temperature in 40 seconds, which helps with the morning rush. It is not a one-button machine though, so grinding, assisted tamping and milk steaming still make it slower than fully automatic coffee makers.
