The Breville Barista Touch sits one step above the Barista Express in Breville’s lineup, adding a touchscreen interface and an automatic steam wand to the same integrated burr grinder and PID temperature control formula. It just dropped to $749, off its $999 list price and at its all-time low on Amazon, the lowest price this machine has ever reached. This deal is open to all Amazon customers with no Prime membership required.

From beans to espresso in under a minute
The integrated conical burr grinder delivers freshly ground coffee directly into the portafilter on demand, which is the core advantage of the Barista series over machines that require a separate grinder or accept pre-ground coffee. ThermoJet heating reaches extraction temperature in three seconds rather than the five-minute warm-up that traditional boiler systems require, which makes the difference between pulling a shot immediately when you want one and planning your morning around the machine’s schedule. Low-pressure pre-infusion wets the grounds gradually before ramping to full extraction pressure, reducing channeling and pulling flavors more evenly across the puck for a more balanced result.
