Breville Barista Touch Impress Espresso Machine - Damson Blue BES881DBL1BNA1

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 setti... morengs 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.
