How one body does three jobs
Whole beans go in the top hopper, and the grinder beneath offers 45 settings to dial in each bag. Fresh grounds fall straight into the portafilter.
A single boiler handles the heat, with a listed heat-up time of 3 seconds. The machine is ready about as fast as you can dose, which is the real gain on a weekday morning.
You run it from the touch screen. Let the machine follow its preset, or take charge of the shot yourself. The milk system works the same way.
Three details worth knowing
Milk two ways
Automatic steaming looks after the milk while you tamp. Switch to manual when you want to shape the foam for latte art.
Cold drinks as well
A cold brew function sits next to the hot drinks, so iced coffee season does not call for another gadget.
Steel and paint body
Stainless steel housing with a painted finish, in satin silver or sea salt white. The white version also comes with a drip tray guard.
Measure your counter first
This machine measures 38.1 cm wide, 36.8 cm deep and 42.5 cm tall (15.0 x 14.5 x 16.7 in) and weighs 18.6 kg (41.0 lb). Check the clearance under your upper cabinets and leave room above the hopper for refilling beans.
This unit runs on 220 V The store confirms a rating of 220 V at 1400 W. A standard US kitchen outlet is not a 220 V supply, so make sure you have a matching circuit where the machine will sit, or ask an electrician, before you order. If you do not, choose another machine from our range.

The full spec sheet
Before you decide
Is a Breville espresso machine with a built-in grinder worth it?
It is if you want espresso from whole beans without a second appliance. This one pairs 45 grind settings with a 3-second heat-up and milk steaming you can run automatically or by hand.
Will it run on a standard US outlet?
No. The store confirms this unit is rated 220 V and 1400 W, so it needs a 220 V supply at the counter. Without one, pick a different machine.
Can it make iced or cold coffee?
Yes. A cold brew function is listed among its drinks, so cold coffee comes from the same machine you use for hot espresso.
How does it compare with other machines that grind?
Featuring a single boiler, touch screen controls and a 3-second heat-up, it's worth comparing against the Barsetto BAE-03 with flat burr grinder or the SMEG espresso machine with grinder.
