create barista-style coffee at home with the breville vcf153 barista max coffee machine. taking all the guesswork out of making the perfect cup, this machine precisely controls the water temperature and lets you choose between a single or double shot. alternatively, set your own shot volume to suit your taste.

enjoy the flavor of freshly ground coffee. the integrated grinder has 30 settings, so you've got full control over each cup you make.

the barista max is a bean-to-cup machine for people who want to make quality coffee at home. it won’t be the perfect machine for people who want zero-effort coffee, and it won’t appeal to hobbyists who want a machine that they can tinker with and modify.

for the rest of us, i’d say it’s the best of both worlds: you can use fresh beans and get a delicious espresso and there are enough settings (grinding fineness, water temperature, infusion profile) to play around with to get a really great extraction. but fundamentally, this is a reliable, easy to use machine that delivers consistently good coffee. and for its price point, it’s superb.

because the barista max has an inbuilt coffee grinder and milk frother – and comes with a tamper, milk jug and porta filter – you won’t need anything else in your coffee-making kit. that’s a good thing because this is a big machine (31 x 31 x 33cm) and the trade-off for its high-quality coffee is that you’ll need to give up a correspondingly large space on your kitchen counter.

don’t even think about putting it in a cupboard when you’re not using it. this is a machine that should be used daily – it’s too heavy (as it should be) and cumbersome to be dragged out on special occasions.
