The Breville Barista Touch Impress, available only Best Buy, is a precise espresso machine that gives you real-time feedback to guide you to your perfect cup of coffee. With 8 presets, intelligent puck dosing, and alternative milk settings, it might indeed impress you and any guests who come over. Read on to learn more about what it can do, then enter for a chance to win one.

Awaken the Barista in you

Coffee is an integral part of my life, and I know many people feel the same way. For example, in our editorial team at Best Buy, our editor-in-chief, Martin Renaud, likes to keep a pot of coffee hot to enjoy throughout the day. Personally, I try to stick to two cups of coffee a day like one of our in-house editors, Chris. So I make sure each cup is as good as it can be.

Over the past few years, I’ve experimented with different brewing techniques in pursuit of the perfect cup of coffee and learned how to pull a decent shot of espresso through trial and error. If you’re just embarking on your coffee journey or are looking to hone your skills, the Breville Barista Touch Impress espresso machine might flatten your learning curve and make it easy for you to learn the fundamentals as it guides you step-by-step through the coffee-making process. You can choose from eight presets—including espresso, latte, flat white, cappuccino, and Americano—and simply follow the instructions on the screen to recreate your favourite coffee drinks at home. 

Master the art of espresso

Everyone likes their coffee in a specific way—whether that’s very hot, with a double shot of espresso, or with a little bit of milk. We sent a sample of the Breville Barista Touch Impress to Rae Chen, one of our small appliances reviewers and coffee enthusiast for her to review it and share her honest impressions with us on the blog. Something she really liked about this espresso machine is that, while the Barista Touch Impress shows you how to make the coffee recipe of your choice, you can tweak the settings on the touchscreen and customize each step to your liking. For example, you can choose the filter size and grind size for your espresso shot to make the extraction faster or slower. For lattes, you can pick which type of milk you would like to use from dairy, almond, oat, and soy milk, and the machine will automatically adjust the settings for best results thanks to its Auto MilQ™ feature. You can even customize the foam level and temperature!

With so many options, you can follow Breville’s recommendations or play around to create your perfect espresso drink. If you do edit the recipe, you can save your creation directly on the machine and the Barista Touch Impress will remember your drink preferences for next time. The Breville Barista Touch Impress has so many cool features that this barely scratches the surface! Make sure to read Rae’s review to learn more about how it works and her experience using it.

  26. Love that touchscreen breaks down the steps for each drink and lets you fine-tune them to fit your exact preferences. To make a latte, for instance, you can customize your espresso shot: Filter size, double or single walled filter (depending on the freshness of your coffee beans), and grind size. When you tap the icon of the portafilter, the Barista grinds your beans into your portafilter. Then, you tamp them down using the integrated lever—Breville recommends tamping twice for the perfect tamp. If your portafilter is a little low, as mine was a number of times, you’ll keep tapping the portafilter icon and re-tamping until the dose is perfect
