I fell in love
After using capsule coffee machine for years, I wanted to upgrade to a coffee bean machine. My friend highly recommended it as he has been using it for a year and even though it was hit in my price range, I decided to spoil myself. And it is the best money I spent for myself. I go to bed thinking about my morning coffee. Easy to use and clean, also looks luxury and beautiful in my kitchen.

Perfect!
The machine is not only fast in heating up, like 3 seconds, it is manageable to change the grind and grind time allowing me to adjust the flow of coffee pouring into the cup. The hot waterspout is an added bonus. It makes for a hot cup. The only thing I will say is that the contents list outside the box should include the "dosing funnel", which is another great item to have. Perfect coffee!

Barista coffee at home
The machine is easy to set up and use. In no time at all we had freshly made coffee with frothy milk. The smell and taste of the coffee is great, if you are thinking about a coffee machine buy this one from the Good Guys

Become a Barista at Home
This machine is so easy to set up and use, making lovely freshly ground coffee and using the inbuilt milk frother - we were enjoying barista quality coffees at home in no time. We also bought the knock box to allow for easy clean of the grounds. The coffee smells and tastes great, if you are thinking of a coffee machine, get this one from the Good Guys !!

At a glance
The Breville Barista Pro is a manual coffee machine with a built-in grinder, fast 3 second heat-up and guided LCD controls for home users who want better espresso without a separate grinder. It is a strong fit for households that enjoy hands-on brewing and milk drinks. Its main limitation is that it offers less temperature and pressure customisation than more specialised premium espresso setups.
What it’s great for
- Home Espresso Making
- Flat Whites and Lattes
- Hands-On Coffee Preparation
- Daily Multi-Cup Use
Where it works best
- Home Kitchen
- Apartment Kitchen
- Family Benchtop
- Shared Household
Who it’s for
- Home Barista Beginner
- Espresso Enthusiast
- Flat White Drinker
- Small Household
Things to consider
It gives strong control and convenience for home use, but advanced users may want more specialised adjustment options than higher-end prosumer machines provide.
Barista experience suitability
High - offers hands-on espresso preparation with guided controls and integrated grinding
Ease of cleaning score
7/10 - integrated design reduces extra equipment, but grinder, steam wand and portafilter still require regular cleaning
Beginner friendliness
8/10 - LCD guidance and automatic dosing make it approachable for newer home users
Counter space suitability
7/10 - integrated grinder saves space versus separate appliances, though it is still a full-size benchtop machine
Noise level vs category average
Average - built-in grinder adds noise during use, consistent with similar manual espresso machines with grinders
Key benefits
- Integrated grinder: Grinds beans directly into the portafilter to save bench space and streamline preparation.
- 3 second heat-up time: Reaches operating temperature quickly so you can start making coffee with less waiting.
- LCD interface: Guides grinding and extraction settings in a clear way that helps users refine each shot.
- 9 bar pump pressure: Supports rich espresso extraction for balanced flavour and crema.
- Milk frother: Creates microfoam suitable for flat whites, lattes and other milk-based coffees.
- 2 L water tank: Supports multiple cups in one session before needing a refill.
- 250 g bean hopper: Holds enough whole beans for regular daily use with fewer top-ups.
- Automatic hands-free dosing: Simplifies daily workflow by dosing directly into the portafilter with less manual handling.
Q: Is the Barista Pro fully automatic or still hands-on?
A: No. Breville The Barista Pro automates grinding dose timing and shot volume, but it is still a manual espresso machine. You still handle the portafilter, tamp the coffee and texture milk, so it suits buyers who want involvement, not push-button coffee.
Q: Can it make multiple coffees in one session without fuss?
A: Yes. The 2L water tank, 250g bean hopper and fast Thermocoil heat-up make back-to-back coffees practical for a household. It is still a manual machine though, so each shot and each milk jug needs separate hands-on preparation.
Q: Does the built-in grinder save bench space in smaller kitchens?
A: Yes. Breville The Barista Pro grinds directly into the portafilter, so there is no need for a separate grinder on the bench. The trade-off is regular cleaning around the grinder, steam wand and portafilter as part of normal espresso upkeep.
Q: Can the steam wand texture milk for flat whites and lattes?
A: Yes. The steam wand is designed to create microfoam for flat whites and lattes, giving more control over milk texture than capsule-style systems. It is not automatic frothing, so consistency improves with a little practice.
Q: How quickly can this machine go from switch-on to espresso?
A: Breville The Barista Pro heats water in about 3 seconds, so there is less waiting before the first shot. The quick-heating Thermocoil also helps the machine move between brewing and steaming without the longer pauses common on slower systems.
Q: Would this suit a first manual espresso machine buyer?
A: Yes. The LCD guides grinding and extraction, and volumetric controls make repeatable shots easier than a fully manual setup. It still rewards practice with grind, tamp and milk texturing, so expect a learning curve rather than instant consistency.
