Early Prime deal: Make barista-grade espressos with this Breville machine

Breville The Barista Express Espresso Machine Lifestyle
Breville

Let me ask you a question. How would you like to make barista-grade espressos in the comfort of your home? I’m talking super easy, super delicious, wham, bam, brewed. Well, you can with the Breville Barista Express Espresso Machine, which has virtually everything you need built into the system. It has an integrated conical burr grinder, microfoam milk texturing, and an optimally-controlled Thermocoil heating system — so the brew doesn’t get overcooked. Your next question will probably be: How much will it cost me? Thanks to an early Prime Day deal, you can grab one for $550 instead of $750, saving you $200. Oh yeah. That’s a small price to pay for some tasty coffee in the morning.

Why you should buy the Breville Barista Express Espresso machine

There’s only one reason you’d need this machine: to make barista-quality brews at home. If you frequent coffee shops, that can save you a lot of money, and there’s nothing better than whipping up a quick, delicious brew in some sweats right after you wake up. As far as coffee or espresso machines go, this one has some pretty rad features.

For starters, it has a built-in, conical burr grinder with dose controls so you can grind your coffee beans without any additional equipment exactly to the specifications you love. There are 16 different precision grind settings to choose from. Plus, the 9-bar extraction via 15 15-bar Italian pump makes thick, mouth-watering espresso. The manual microform system allows you to foam up the top for the ideal beverage. Honestly, just writing this all out makes me want a fresh espresso.

You don’t need a lot of experience making espressos or coffee, either. The machine makes the entire process pretty simple. Just be mindful that you will need to stay current on maintenance, clean out the machine regularly, and take care of the components. But that’s true of any coffee machine.

This machine’s value is off the chain with the current Prime Day deal. You’re getting it for $550 instead of $750, which saves you $200. You could put that extra money towards some coffee beans and have a bunch left over. Don’t sleep on this deal if you’re a big coffee drinker, especially if you like your brews strong.
