Check today’s offer↗Five realities worth knowing before checkout.
- 01
It needs your hands
You still distribute, tamp, lock the portafilter, start the shot and texture milk. Buy it to learn the process—not for one-touch coffee.
- 02
Espresso first, steam second
Its single Thermocoil means brewing and steaming happen sequentially. That is fine for one or two drinks, slower for a queue of milk drinks.
- 03
Measure the usable space
The body is 12.5 × 13.8 × 15.9 inches. Leave extra room above for the hopper and behind the machine to remove the rear water tank.
- 04
Three useful extras are not included
Fresh beans, a compact coffee scale and a knock box make dialing in and cleanup easier. The machine already includes baskets, funnel, tamper, jug and cleaning tools.
- 05
Care has recurring consumables
Budget for water filters, cleaning tablets and descaling product. Frequency depends on water hardness and use, so follow the machine prompts and manual.
Three similar machines remove different friction.

This is not a push-button appliance. The value is in making each variable visible and adjustable.
- 01
Grind and dose
Choose one of 16 grind settings and grind fresh beans directly into the 54 mm portafilter.
- 02
Distribute and tamp
Level the 18 g dose and tamp it evenly. The included dosing funnel helps contain loose grounds.
- 03
Extract the shot
Low-pressure pre-infusion leads into a 9 bar extraction. The pressure gauge helps diagnose the puck, not replace tasting.
- 04
Texture milk manually
Purge the wand, introduce air briefly, then create a rolling vortex for silky microfoam. Wipe and purge immediately afterward.

Four questions that prevent the wrong purchase.
01Is the Barista Express a one-touch machine?+
No. It grinds and doses for you, but you still distribute, tamp, lock in the portafilter, start extraction and texture milk. That participation is the reason to buy it—not a defect to overlook.
02Does “15 bar” mean it extracts espresso at 15 bar?+
No. Breville specifies a 15 bar pump and a 9 bar extraction after low-pressure pre-infusion—the figure that matters during brewing.
03Who should choose a superautomatic instead?+
Choose a superautomatic if the priority is repeatable coffee and milk drinks with minimal puck preparation, technique and cleanup. Choose the Barista Express when learning and controlling the process is part of the value.
04What should I verify on Amazon before buying?+
Confirm ASIN B00CH9QWOU, model BES870XL, 110–120 V, seller, condition, return terms, delivery date and the live price. Amazon controls all of those details.
Functions only matter when they improve a routine.
Learn what changes flavour
You can see and adjust grind, dose, extraction and milk instead of hiding them inside automation.
One appliance to begin
The built-in grinder reduces the first shopping list and keeps the station compact.
Manual microfoam
The steam wand gives room to learn silky milk and basic latte art.
- Grinder and espresso workflow in one established platform.
- Manual steam wand allows real milk-texture practice.
- Large owner community and accessory ecosystem.
- Good shots require dialing grind, dose and tamp.
- Brewing and steaming are sequential rather than simultaneous.
- The integrated grinder limits the upgrade path.
The work that continues after checkout.
- 01 · EACH SHOTKnock out and rinse the basket
Old coffee oils quickly affect taste.
- 02 · AFTER MILKPurge and wipe the steam wand
Do this immediately before milk dries.
- 03 · WEEKLYClean group and grinder path
Brush retained grounds and follow the cleaning cycle.
- 04 · WHEN DUEReplace filter and descale
Use water hardness and the manual, not guesswork.
Two alternatives that solve a different problem.
