SMEG BCC12 and BCC13 Bean to Cup Espresso Machine, Milk Frother
Guaranteed Safe Checkout
SMEG bean to cup espresso machine, BCC12 or BCC13Whole beans in, espresso and steamed milk out, from one machine on your counter.
This SMEG espresso machine handles whole beans, extraction and milk steaming within one housing, so one press is enough to begin a cappuccino. Two models appear in the listing: the BCC12 comes in white, red or black, while the BCC13 comes in white, black or green. It suits home kitchens that want café-style milk drinks without a separate grinder or a manual shot routine.
- Grinds whole beans for each cup
- Steam frother for milk drinks
- Size and strength on the top panel
- Two models, four colors
What happens when you press the button
A bean to cup coffee machine stores whole beans and grinds a fresh dose for every drink. Because the grinder is built into the body, there is no need to carry grounds between appliances or tamp a basket by hand. The machine doses, brews and fills your cup.
That is the real line between this and a manual espresso machine. With a semi-automatic model such as the SMEG ECF01, you grind, dose, tamp and time each shot yourself. Here you pick the drink size and strength on the top panel and let the machine do the work.
Milk is the other half of the job. The frother uses steam to turn cold milk into foam for cappuccinos, lattes and macchiatos, beside the cup you just brewed.
Who it saves time for
Anyone who wants a proper milk drink before work without first learning to tamp and time a shot.
Two appliances, or just one
A grinder plus a manual machine
- Two footprints on the counter
- Grounds to move, a basket to tamp, a shot to time
- More parts to clean every morning
One SMEG bean to cup machine
- Whole beans ground and brewed inside the machine
- Drink size and strength set with one touch
- Milk steamed next to the cup
If you love the hands-on side of espresso, a manual machine still makes sense. This one is for mornings that need fewer steps.
Built around fresh beans and easy milk
Grinder inside the body
Beans are ground just before brewing, so each cup starts from fresh grounds instead of a bag that went flat in the cupboard.
Steam milk frother
Foam milk for a cappuccino, a latte or a macchiato. With a little practice you can try latte art at home.
Controls on top
The panel sits on the top of the machine, where you can read it and choose size and strength without bending down.

Steam the milk
Froth cold milk in a jug until it turns glossy, then pour it over the espresso.

Confirm the electrical rating first
Before you order, ask our team to confirm the electrical rating of the unit you will receive. When it arrives, compare the label on the machine with your outlet before you switch it on.

The details
Straight answers
What is the difference between the SMEG BCC12 and BCC13?
In this listing the clear difference is color: the BCC12 comes in white, red or black, and the BCC13 in white, black or green. Both are sold here as bean to cup machines with a milk frother. If one feature decides it for you, ask our team which version has it before you order.
Does the SMEG espresso machine grind its own beans?
Yes. The grinder is built into the body, so you add whole beans and it grinds a fresh dose for each drink. You do not need a separate coffee grinder.
Can it make cappuccinos and lattes?
Yes. Brew the espresso, then foam the milk with the steam frother. Thicker foam suits a cappuccino and a silkier pour suits a latte.
Is this the same as the SMEG BCC02?
No, it is a separate listing. The SMEG BCC02 automatic coffee machine is its own model, while this page covers the BCC12 and BCC13.
How do I keep it clean?
Lift out the brewing unit, water reservoir and drip tray and rinse them under the tap. Descale as the manual directs, and more often if your water is hard.
