To brew a perfect cup of coffee, you need to precisely control all variables, including bloom time, flow rate, brew temperature, and volume. With the Luxe Brewer, you can control those factors and more to your preference. The new Breville is certified by the Specialty Coffee Association (SCA) to provide precise temperature control and customized brewing parameters.

Three mode settings—Gold Cup Standard, Cold Brew, and Custom Brew — make it even easier to create consistent coffee every time. With the Cold Brew setting, you can adjust the brewing time up to 36 hours.

A removable water reservoir with an integrated water filter ensures the Luxe Brewer continues to brew coffee to your standards over time. The Luxe Brewer also has a water hardness test strip to adjust the machine’s descaling schedule based on local water conditions.
