Barista Touch

My Experience with the Meraki Espresso Machine I received my Meraki about two weeks ago, just three weeks after buying a Breville Barista Touch Impress. Before that, I had been using a DeLonghi super-automatic for seven years. Moving to a semi-automatic machine seemed like a great way to elevate my

So what's with the downvotes on most of the comments? The common "wisdom" of this sub is: get a high tier grinder, a cheap espresso machine and avoid all in one solutions. If €1000 is your budget, you'll be able to find a suitable combo! As for this machine: you could've expected the reactions just

It’s better than your breville barista touch. You’re only hesitant because you’re about to purchase it. Once you buy it, you won’t give a damn about the clearance. Which by the way, is not a problem at all. I have the micra, and I love it every little bit that I can’t even find the time to complain.

I'm kinda picky about my coffee, and it did not meet my expectations. I'm currently in the refund process and dea

I have a Breville Barista Touch and don’t think it’s keeping its pressure consistently throughout the shot. The profitec just sounds more well built, which we all know they are in different leagues. Great shot!

I'm starting to think Breville machines all have spray out issues. My Barista Touch had the same issues. Even after getting different portafilters and baskets, I still got spray out. I think if you adjust for a more coarse grind, you could cut that down.

What don't you like about your Barista Touch that you would want to improve on with a LM? The answer to that question will go a long way to helping you define "worth it". For most people with Breville machines with built-in grinders, the best upgrade path is to use their budget for a really nice gri

I've struggled making good balanced cups with my Sage / Breville Barista Touch as well! I found several things: The integrated grinder produces varied results and get me different brew times and flavors from cup to cup. I bought an IMS Big Bang precision basket, for the same reasons as you. It was m
