What It Does

Beautifully sleek in stainless steel, the Barista Touch Impress streamlines and simplifies espresso drinks for the home barista. The conical burr grinder offers 30 settings, and assisted tamping guarantees a precise, polished puck of grounds every time for even brewing and less mess. The first home espresso machine with automatic settings for non-dairy milk, the Impress froths lush microfoam-automatically adjusted to your desired temperature, texture and type of milk—with the hands-free steam wand. Touchscreen controls offer step-by-step guidance through the grinding, brewing, and steaming process to create exquisite espressos, cappuccinos, lattes and more.
  • Why We Love It

    Not only does the Barista Touch Impress have Auto Milq but the steam wand also operates in Manual Mode for more direct control over milk texture and temperature. The Auto Milq has some guardrails built in that prevent scalding but still provide a good result on temp and texture for various types of milk. The manual mode overcomes those temperature objections for those that like a 160 degree latte as an example. It's sort of the best of both worlds, "Auto Milq" and manual milk in the same steam wand.

Extremely Disappointed

⭐️ Extremely Disappointed I’ve only had my Breville Barista Touch Impress for 6 months and have taken more than good care of it, following all recommended cleaning and maintenance from day one. Despite that, it stopped brewing espresso properly. I sent it directly to Breville for repair and was told the issue was fixed, only to receive it back with the exact same problem. I’ve tested multiple grind sizes, doses, and fresh beans. Water flows normally without coffee, but the second coffee is added, the machine produces only a few drops or nothing at all. I’m extremely frustrated and don’t understand how this machine was tested before being returned to me as “repaired.” After taking such good care of a machine that is only 6 months old, this is completely unacceptable. At this point, Breville needs to stand behind their product and replace the machine.

Broken after 4 months. unable to fix under warranty. complete waste of money.

Huge regret in purchasing this coffee machine. The grinder broke after 4 months of use. Way more reliable products on the market. After market service was painfully slow and they couldn't fix the issue. I'm now left with an expensive coffee machine that does not work.

Next level lattes!

This was an upgrade from the Breville express impress which I thought made excellent lattes but stopped working after almost a decade. I didn’t hesitate to purchase another Breville and The Touch Impress is next level. It’s easy to use and makes incredible espresso and milk drinks. The alternative milk settings works great and really makes a difference. I am so far loving this machine and have zero regrets with my purchase.

Worth it

I’m not a coffee expert, barista, or anything like that. I just love a great latte, and I’m always amazed at how good it can be in a good coffee shop. I tried a few different machines at home, but could never get anything like a really good coffee shop latte. This machine shows me how to make the best lattes I’ve ever had. Worth every penny.

Second machine; starting to regret it (first one temp sensor stopped working)

I loved my first Breville Touch, but after a couple of years the temperature sensor stopped working. When I contacted the company, they focused more on asking what kind of coffee beans I was using than on the issue itself. Since it was out of warranty, I had to send it in for repair, which were costly and took over five weeks in total. In the meantime, I bought the Touch Impress. At first, I was really impressed and loved it. But after a while, I started noticing that the grind was extremely inconsistent. I would brew a cup at grind setting 18 and it would be fine. An hour later, I’d make another latte and the espresso would drip out for 48 seconds, resulting in barely half an ounce. I’d change it to 19 and then it would run too fast and tell me to adjust the setting again. I’d go back to 18 and it would still just drip. Over the last couple of months, I’ve also noticed that the dial seems to change the grind setting on its own. It might be set to 18, and within seconds it switches to 20 or even 21 while you’re looking at the screen. It’s very inconsistent. The grind is inconsistent, and the brew is inconsistent. The machine itself is nice, and when it works the espresso tastes great. The milk frother also works really well. But overall the experience has been frustrating. I’m not sure what to do at this point, but I’m working with support to see if they can help. However, based on my experience, I do not recommend this product.
