especially if not using the machine for an extended period
no part of this machine should go in the dishwasher
the learning curve will be steep
thirty seconds may not sound like a long time
the temperature of their espresso is on the cool side
the unnecessary growth of algae in your machine
only takes one to two minutes
water tends to drip on the right hand side sometimes
the Barista Express is significantly more expensive
Barista Express doesn t have frothing temperature control
Steam is weak
sometimes leaked water in the base on the right hand side
does splutter a bit and make a bit of water mess
Breville have been unresponsive in my support query
dialing in the shot was too difficult
It cannot make drip or pour over coffee
it s still not perfect for everyone
They are not set for a 30 second shot or a 20 second shot
the built-in conical burr coffee grinder
The bottom line It might take up a bit of counter space in the kitchen
Twitter icon A stylized bird with an open mouth
espresso machines are so expensive is the boiler the machine
a bit pricier and far more finicky
It symobilizes a website link url
some standard options are noticeably missing
some features it lacks compared to other similarly-priced espresso machines
None of these missing features make the Barista Express unusable
a fast heating mode
the final product can be quite disappointing
It is not a commercial grade machine
large size
it has a much lower price tag
sound like a big deal
The Barista Express lost points for its descaling process
It takes a bit of practice to master the steam wand
No cherry-picked units sent by manufacturers
The Barista Express certainly is not cheap
takes a bit of practice to master the steam wand
Too high a pressure will give you a bitter taste
Slow- If you are not dedicated to learning the are of barista
too low or too high
not a completely hands-free espresso machine
Breville Barista Express is not just an espresso machine
the pressure gauge that catches your eye first
Integrated grinders don t play well with oily beans
Shut off the steam once the water has been purged from the wand
the grinder is messy
Only freshly ground coffee delivers that heavenly coffee experience
loss of precise control
it s not a perfect machine
It s not quite a bean to brew experience
it may seem difficult to clean storage containers and grinders
the machine may seem expensive at first blush
buying coffee at shops can be expensive
Side of Breville Barista Express The small bean hopper
your results will not be as good as coffee goes stale over time
there is a steep learning curve
have limited kitchen counter space
it is only semi-automatic
significantly more expensive than the Mr
the machine will get clogged
making it difficult to use
every day can be expensive
is almost too hot to touch
baskets for single and double shots
required a learning curve was the steam wand
tamp magnetically clicks into place
Switch the steam off after water purged out of the wand
of the holes are blocked
It is no different for this espresso machine
single-wall filter baskets are not pressurized
stainless steel surface hides a mostly plastic interior
it requires a bit of a learning curve
high-cost electricity bills
require emptying and cleaning on a daily basis
