Great machine, easy to use, easy to clean. Don’t know why we didn’t buy one earlier.

Breville Pro
After reading instructions and YouTube this machine is perfect. Took a little while to get the perfect measurement of coffee to water. Definitely a step up from our last machine. If you want to refine your coffee making skills this machine is for you

Hot water spout not hot enough
The water that comes out of the hot water spout isnt hot enough. It comes out warm enough to chug or skull your cuppa but its not hot enough if you add a dash of milk to your long black or tea. The White Sea Salt colour is ok but I wouldnt have chosen it if I knew it was a Matt finish. This makes it look cheap and easy to get dirty. I was hoping for a e we hire gloss finish. Coffee side of things seems to work ok at this stage.

Hot water spout not hot enough. Finish is matte, not glossy
We like long blacks. The hot water spout for a long black, tea, hot chocolate etc works fine but isnt hot enough. After putting in a dash of milk it ends up being warm enough to skull your coffee which isnt ideal. I contacted breville about it. They said the temperature control knob which is to control the shot temperatures at the group head also controls the temperature for the hot water spout. I have it at max & my thermometer read 70c. I guess Ill have to use a kettle for the hot water. Also, be aware the white colour is a matte finish and not glossy which was a surprise to me. If I had of known that I wouldnt have picked the white as its really easy to get dirty & not as easy or nice to clean as a glossy unit in my opinion. Coffee part of the unit seems to work ok after some testing & tweaking which is the main thing.

Q: Does the Breville Barista Pro Sea Salt suit beginners, or is it better for experienced home baristas?
A: It suits beginners who want room to improve. The built-in grinder, PID temperature control and 1 or 2 cup options simplify setup, but it is still a manual espresso machine, so grind, dose, tamp and milk texture all affect the result.
Q: Can this machine use both freshly ground coffee and pre-ground coffee?
A: Yes, it can use either. The included 1 and 2 cup single and dual wall filter baskets give more flexibility, so fresh beans suit the integrated grinder, while dual wall baskets can be more forgiving when using pre-ground coffee.
Q: How much bench space does the Breville Barista Pro Sea Salt need?
A: Allow roughly 33 cm wide, 38 cm deep and 41 cm high for the machine itself. It also helps to leave extra space above for filling the 250 g bean hopper and enough side clearance to remove the 2 L water tank comfortably.
Q: What size accessories and baskets does the Breville Barista Pro use?
A: It uses a 54 mm stainless steel portafilter, not the larger 58 mm commercial size. That matters if buying extra baskets, tampers or dosing tools, because accessories need to match the 54 mm Breville format to fit properly.
Q: Is the steam wand strong enough for latte and flat white milk texturing?
A: Yes, it is designed for milk texturing and the steam wand reaches 130C for silky microfoam. It is suitable for latte, flat white and cappuccino style milk, but because steaming is manual, consistency still depends on technique and practice.
Q: How much coffee can the built-in grinder hold, and does it offer grind adjustment?
A: The integrated conical burr grinder has a 250 g bean hopper and 25 grind settings. That gives enough range to fine-tune espresso extraction at home, though it is aimed at espresso-style grinding rather than large batch filter coffee brewing.
