Needed a new coffee machine and saw this one for 48% off and made the purchase immediately.

I chose this machine as it is pretty good value and has an automatic milk steaming wand which is suitable for noobs like me to make lattes and cappuccinos.

      Thanks, cancelled my Amazon order in time and ordered this, just need to wait a week or so instead of next day Amazon delivery. Will use the savings to buy a knock box and some coffee.

      Feel free to create new better deal or I can update this deal with your better deal.

      • Not sure if mods allow changing to a different store. Happy for you to post a new deal :)

        Change the colour mate. OP’s deal is for Black Stainless

    • Dude, you should have posted that offer as a standalone instead of just a comments, I've been waiting for days for something like this!

    • Also if you are a RACV member you can get 20% off

      • How does RACV members access 20% off?

        • Need to login to RACV account, then go to rewards and offers and search Breville. You then have to type your membership info in and they instantly send you a unique promo code which can only b used once.

  • Nice machine. I acquired one from a family members when they bought a new coffee machine, this one works a treat and makes a great brew.

  • How does this compare to Barista Pro? I can't see any noticeable difference other than the steam wand.

    • +1

      Try this comparison tool, I've found it very helpful in the past.

      • Looks like this beats dual boiler in some aspects, except for heating element

    • Touch is a Barista Express with an auto milk wand and a touch screen.

      Touch screens are a modern reverse efficiency humanism. Ie. On the barista Express you simply turn a dial, or press two buttons to adjust something..done instantly.

      On the Touch you go into menu> settings>brew temp> chose 93C with arrows> apply.

      If your fingers are wet…well….even worse

      Pass ..

      • Are you sure they’re the only differences?

        • I think the Pro has a shot timer …which is stupid. You stop the shot when you see (using a little magnetic mirror) that your tiger stripes are ending…not because a clock says 20 seconds are up.

          Also added a pump dimmer. Can really control pre infusion and max pressure.

          My BIL has the Touch (same rubbish single hole group head outlet as my Barista Express - made an aluminum diffusion washer for mine). Both now have Baratza burr grinders.

          But I'll take the buttons any day.

          With a few subtle mods, you are left with one problem….

          When you go out for coffee you will send a lot back, as there is a lot of over extracted ass water given out.
