Worth the extra
Really nice machine. My family have the lower level machine and it is worth spending the extra to get the Pro for the better grind functions/control and faster steam functions

Breville barista pro
This was my first time using a machine where I had to tamp the coffee. It took a bit of fiddling to get it just right but it is now so easy and great coffee. Never going back.

CAFE Quality coffee at home
The Luxe finishing to the Breville Barista Pro in sea salt and brass, gives a feeling of decadence which adds to the enjoyment of a beautifully made coffee at home (but without the incredibly heavy pricetag it’s not the cheapest but it’s not the most expensive either on the market, it’s affordable) though it does not have cold brew. You definitely can make a cool espresso over ice with milk, for cool coffee drinks.

Love it
Took me a little while to work out the best settings for particular beans and my liking but since finding that ‘sweet spot’ its been amazing. Super easy to use, aesthetically beautiful and makes a bloody good coffee in seconds.

At a glance
The Barista Pro is a manual espresso machine with a built-in grinder, fast 3 second heat-up and milk frothing for cafe-style drinks at home. It suits beginners who want guidance and coffee enthusiasts who like to fine-tune grind and shot volume. Its key strengths are speed, all-in-one convenience and hands-on control. The main limitation is that it still requires manual technique compared with more automated machines.
What it’s great for
- Home Espresso
- Milk-Based Coffee
- Daily Coffee Rituals
- Learning Barista Skills
- Back-to-Back Coffees
Where it works best
- Home Kitchen
- Apartment Kitchen
- Family Home
- Entertaining Area
Who it’s for
- Home Barista Beginner
- Hands-On Coffee Enthusiast
- Espresso Lover
- Flat White Drinker
Things to consider
It offers strong manual control and speed, but it is less automated than bean-to-cup machines and may take practice to consistently match specialist prosumer espresso setups.
Barista experience suitability
High - strong manual control with guided interface support
Ease of cleaning score
7/10 - integrated grinder and manual milk frothing add cleanup, but the included cleaning kit and removable water tank help
Beginner friendliness
8/10 - LCD guidance, volumetric controls and automatic hands-free dosing make learning easier
Counter space suitability
6/10 - convenient as an all-in-one machine, but the built-in grinder means it still takes a noticeable amount of bench space
Noise level vs category average
About average - built-in grinder adds noticeable sound during use, similar to other manual machines with grinders
Key benefits
- Thermocoil Heating System: Reaches brewing temperature in 3 seconds, so you can start making coffee with less waiting.
- Integrated Conical Burr Grinder: Grinds fresh beans on demand from the built-in 250 g hopper for better flavour and a tidier benchtop setup.
- LCD Interface: Gives clear guidance during grinding and extraction, making it easier to learn and repeat your preferred coffee.
- 30 Grind Settings: Lets you adjust grind size for different beans and roasts to better dial in espresso taste.
- 1 Cup, 2 Cup and Manual Shot Control: Gives flexibility for quick single or double coffees or more hands-on extraction control.
- Instant Steam After Extraction: Helps you move from espresso to milk texturing without a long pause between steps.
- 2 L Water Tank: Supports multiple drinks in a row before needing a refill.
- 54 mm Stainless Steel Portafilter: Supports a more traditional espresso-making feel with a durable, barista-style handle.
Q: Is this coffee machine fully automatic or still hands-on to use
A: No. The Barista Pro is a manual coffee machine, so you still grind, tamp and texture milk yourself. The LCD screen, volumetric controls and hands-free dosing make the workflow easier, but it does not make milk drinks at one touch.
Q: Will this machine suit a beginner learning espresso at home
A: Yes. The LCD interface guides grinding and extraction, and the 1 cup, 2 cup and manual shot controls let you start simply before adjusting more settings. It still needs tamping and milk texturing, so there is a learning curve.
Q: Do I need a separate grinder for this espresso machine
A: No. The Barista Pro has an integrated stainless steel conical burr grinder with a 250g hopper, so beans can be ground on demand in the same unit. It still takes noticeable bench space because the grinder is built into the machine body.
Q: Can it make black coffees as well as milk-based drinks
A: Yes. It brews espresso, and the dedicated hot water outlet lets you top up for long blacks or similar drinks. It also froths milk for flat whites and lattes, but it does not have a cold brew function.
Q: Does the fast heat-up help with back-to-back morning coffees
A: Yes. The Thermocoil heating system reaches brewing temperature in 3 seconds, and instant steam after extraction reduces waiting between espresso and milk texturing. That suits homes making more than one coffee in a short window.
Q: How many coffees can it make before needing a refill
A: The Barista Pro has a 2L water tank and a 250g bean hopper, so it is set up for several coffees in a row rather than constant refilling. Actual cups depend on your shot size and how much hot water or steam you use.
Q: What comes in the box with the Barista Pro
A: The box includes single and dual wall 1 and 2 cup baskets, a milk jug, integrated tamper, dosing funnel, Razor trimming tool, cleaning kit and water filter. That covers the main espresso setup, so there is less extra to buy on day one.
