I was waiting for the UK Sage release for a while so I ended up getting a Barista Pro and a V60 and went down the crazy rabbit hole of buying Niche and Fellow grinders and all the expensive accessories! I'm still learning how to dial in and steam milk, but it's all such a massive hassle in the mornings and this video really hits home for me!!! ...I will most likely sell my set up and still get the new Touch Impress when it does eventually launch in the UK.

Awesome Espresso Machine, Videography, Music, I’m Sold, Superbly Done. (I’m looking forward to the full review).

Breville is really pushing this product. Can't wait for your review.

As someone who frequents 3rd wave coffee shops 4-5 times a week this machine has saved me $100 in the first week I’ve had it. I used to have a fully automatic machine that never gave me the ability to do latte art which is not my only want. I love just like anyone else the layers of espresso, milk, foam while creating a beautiful frothiness on the tongue. What setting do you have the milk at? 2 and dairy?

You said it's better than Oracle (Touch). What are the advantages? Does it still have problems with consistency?

[lftassinari]

Please share which settings you use! (grind size and time)

Where can I get those beautiful black coffee cups? Brand? Thank so much for your excellent videos.

[samik]

Anyone else having issues with the coffee temperature with the touch impress

Hi, can you share the link for the mug? Thanks

[mrtrumpsta]

How long are you finding to grind a double basket? Mine is taking around 45seconds to get the dose and not sure if thats normal or not.

[johnlopez]

What settings do you recommend for regular milk latte art?

[Stan_sprinkle]

I just can’t imagine not WDTing anymore

[arkoboy]

What setting are u using for you milk?

[DigitalicaEG]

On a scale of 1 to 10/10 best of the best, how would you rate the built in grinder in terms of espresso? Also the auto frothing doesn’t give me excellent results, I can easily out do it if I go full manual on my barista touch, what do you think of the foaming ability of it in pouring latte art?

[michaellopez-lqfn]

Curios what kind of pressure this machine brews at, is there any adjustability?

Question. I have Touch impress and grinder dial 16 - I have 32sec, but for 17th - 24sec. Should I change burr setting ?By defult setting 5, or any other suggestions ? Thank you

I bought this machine less than a month ago and it is plagued with problems. Every-time I use the auto milk function, the machine abruptly shuts off and flashes the error code ER09. According to other customers on Reddit, this is a very common problem. I also noticed that there was visible arcing around the temperature sensor for the milk.

Personally I have mixed feelings about this. Don't get me wrong, Breville makes excellent products, I had the Breville Barista Express for many years before upgrading to the Pro Version. However, I feel that the Touch Impress is little far towards an automatic experience, for me I worked as a barista for two years, even getting a certification for it. I'm not against people wanting a espresso machine that takes out all the busy work and making it simplistic, however, from I what I learned using the Barista Express, learning the process of creating espresso is key skill that yield better and cleaner results over time. Like I said I got nothing against this model, but I recommend people trying out the Express or even the Pro, if you have enough experience.

Since coffee weight is crucial to making good espresso, this grinding and tamping situation is pointless given the fact that you’ll never really know how much coffee grounds are in the portafilter, prior to tamping. The milk frothing aspect is great and very useful.

I still think the Pro is the secret weapon of the bunch 🤫
