Breville The Barista Touch

The machine measures 12.5 inches wide, 12.7 inches deep, and 16 inches tall. You should ensure you have enough vertical clearance to easily access the bean hopper on top and enough width to comfortably operate the portafilter.

Yes, it is highly effective. You can select your preferred milk temperature and texture level on the touchscreen, and the machine will automatically steam the milk to that specific consistency, making it ideal for latte art.

Absolutely. While the machine offers automated presets, you can manually adjust the grind size using the dial on the side and customize the coffee strength, milk temperature, and texture settings directly through the touchscreen interface.

Thanks to the ThermoJet heating system, the machine is ready to brew in just 3 seconds. It is one of the fastest options available for home espresso machines.

The integrated conical burr grinder is excellent for standard espresso roasts. However, if you frequently switch between very different bean types or require highly specialized grind settings, you might eventually prefer a dedicated standalone grinder.

The Barista Touch uses a 54mm portafilter. This is a standard size for Breville machines, making it easy to find compatible accessories like tampers and distributors.
