DISCOUNT OF 29%: Purchase the Breville Barista Express for $499.95, down from $699.95, on Amazon. This represents a 29% reduction, translating to a savings of $200.

If you have been holding out for the perfect time to quit paying $7 for lattes, that moment has arrived. The Breville Barista Express (BES870XL) is being offered at $499.95 on Amazon, providing a $200 discount (29% off) and equaling the lowest price recorded during Black Friday.

This appliance is an all-inclusive setup, encompassing everything necessary to begin, including an integrated conical burr grinder (which can easily retail for over $200 on its own). The grinder delivers the ideal quantity of fresh coffee straight into the portafilter for bean-to-espresso results in less than a minute. In contrast to less expensive machines with “frothers,” this model is equipped with a genuine manual steam wand for crafting the microfoam essential for latte art.

A helpful suggestion: There is a minor learning curve. You will devote your first afternoon “dialing in” your grind size and dose, but once you pinpoint the optimal setting for your preferred beans, the results are impressively consistent.
