      Use & Care

      Care

      • Message prompt will appear when cleaning cycle is required. This is a back-flushing cycle and is separate from descaling. Follow instruction on screen.
      • Outer housing and cup-warming tray can be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth. Polish with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleansers, pads or cloths, which can scratch surfaces.
      • Steam wand should always be cleaned after texturing milk. Wipe steam wand with a damp cloth.
      • Filter baskets and portafilter should be rinsed under hot water immediately after use to remove all residual coffee oils.
      • Conical burr grinder: Grinder cleaning cycle removes oil buildup on burrs, which can impede performance.
      • Drip tray should be removed, emptied and cleaned at regular intervals, particularly when drip tray full indicator displays "EMPTY ME!"
      • Descaling: In addition to using the provided water filter, we recommend descaling if there is visible scale buildup in water tank. Go to "Settings" and select "Descale Cycle." Follow instructions on screen.

    Love, love, LOVE this! A wonderful start to my day

    I LOVE this machine. It is sooooo easy to use. Three simple steps to yummy hot coffee. I use it every single day. My guests love it. Especially the hot frothing milk feature. So fun and easy. Bravo. Cleanup is so easy, just pop a couple parts in the DW and you’re ready to go again.

    Outstanding machine — requires some patience

    So far I am very happy with my Barista Touch. The machine has enough automated features for convenience yet also allows customization and manual controls for those more experienced. That said, I do recommended anyone buying this machine be very patient. You will need to experiment with grind settings (and time), basket leveling, and tamping, etc in order perfect single and double espresso shots. It took me a while to dial in these settings and it can be frustrating — you may initially run through a lot coffee. However once you’ve perfected your ideal espresso shot, you’ll be pleased with the results. It’s the real deal, and awesome to enjoy commercial quality espresso drinks at home. Cleanup is a bit more than a normal coffee machine; but the quality of drinks far outweighs slightly more cleanup and maintenance. This was the first professional level espresso machine I purchased and was well worth the price and learning how to pull high quality shots.

    Not what I thought

    My portafilter keeps getting locked where I can’t turn it. This constantly needs water and cleaning. I have to do espresso vs americano because then it pours your water first then after. Finding the right grind size and pulling the perfect shot has been a nightmare. My puck continues to come out wet or gets stuck constantly. Unless you’re a pro barista, I wouldn’t recommend. Everytime I try a new bean, adjusting is a mess and time consuming.

    Thought this was going to be the one...

    Worked at first then stopped working and now will not ground beans fine enough to make a good pour of espresso. The lowest setting doesnt grind at all and wont grind the beans untiil it get to at least level 10 or 12.

    Love this machine!

    We are loving our new machine. It functions great, serves us the most delicious espresso and lattes and we are thrilled with the performance. We were tired of our Nespresso and wanted to have the flexibility on our bean choices. This provides a quality beverage with the ability to control the flavor intensity. A bit more work indeed, worth the time invested!

    Great machine highly recommended!

    I never had anything frappuccino before I went to Italy. The best I have ever had. Came back to the US and was told I could buy a Barista and Italian beans. We'll I did and now I have the best in the US.

    Easy To Dial In

    Produces amazing Espresso based drinks and easy for someone with zero drink making experience to achieve quality drinks after a few attempts. I do find the double shot easier than the single to make, and have only used whole beans. Taste is so much better than any coffee shop I go to in Phoenix and ask for Espresso at. Smooth and rich vs. bitter - chalking the coffee shops up to over worked and not enough time to make the espresso properly. I don’t know if I can ever go back to a coffee shop tasting the difference. If you remotely like espresso based drinks and need a little help taking the plunge to at home preparation — this touch screen model makes the magic easy.

    I love this machine as much as coffee

    I’ve had many different espresso machines over the years, but I’ve never made a cappuccino that rivals the ones I enjoyed in Italian cafés until I got my Barista Touch. There’s still a learning curve involved in making the perfect espresso (I had to practice tamping the grounds properly and getting just the right amount and grind size for the beans), but this machine makes it easy to dial in the exact numbers you need to get that wonderful crema and sweet-tasting brew. I don’t recommend this model for someone who wants their coffee drinks with the push of one button – rather, it’s ideal for a person like me who enjoys the process of making their own cappuccino but might be new to the game and needs a little assistance. I never thought I could make cappuccinos that taste this good – makes me feel like a true barista!
