coffee machine lcd touch screen price

I need to preface this by saying that we really like the Keurig K-cup system. Every brewer we"ve had using this system makes excellent coffee. It allows my wife and me to choose whatever flavor or style of coffee we like and it only needs about a minute to brew a cup.

The problem is that the brewers have been so unreliable. None has lasted more than about a year. We purchased this model in the hope that since it"s commercial grade, it will last longer than the other models. It"s too soon to say. We"ve only had it about 2 months. So far, it"s worked flawlessly. Like all the other Keurig brewers, it makes excellent coffee and is very convenient. If it lasts, it"s 5 stars. Otherwise, we may very well switch to another system.

This bean-to-cup commercial coffee machine has the ability to brew one of 60 specialty beverages in under a minute with just a few swipes and a single touch.

With its high-definition user-friendly touchscreen, the Eccellenza Touch system simplifies the beverage selection process, offers the freshest cup of coffee possible and a wide variety of specialty beverages – all this, ground and brewed to perfection in seconds. Great coffee for even the most discerning coffee connoisseurs.

The Eccellenza Touch office coffee machine with grinder offers users the ability to brew various cup sizes of today"s most popular hot beverages.

Breville has become a well-known name in the world of espresso machines with a full lineup of semi-automatic espresso machines. At the mid to high end there are two comparable machines: Breville Barista Pro vs Touch.

In my opinion, there’s no clear winner between Barista Pro vs Touch. The Barista Touch is an upgrade pick with a nice touch display and an automatic steam wand at a higher price. The Barista Pro has a manual steam wand and a simpler (yet still very good) LCD display. Both machines have Breville’s Thermojet heating systems and built-in grinders, so you’ll get quality espresso. It’s really about how much you want to pay for convenience for the Barista Touch.

I’ve used and tested countless automatic and semi-automatic espresso machines, including the Breville Barista range. In this Breville Barista Pro vs. Touch review, I’ll go into detail about all differences and similarities between these two machines, so you can decide which one better suits your needs.

Let’s start with the differences that separate these two machines. The main point is the different displays, as the ease of use for making espresso drinks sets these two apart. The aesthetics, steam wand, and drink options are also somewhat different.

The biggest difference between these two machines is in display screens. Breville Barista Pro has a basic blue backlit LCD screen with buttons, while the Barista Touch has a color touch screen.

As the name already says, Breville Barista Touch has a full-color touchscreen with more customization options than Barista Pro. The Barista Touch screen allows you to choose espresso strength, milk temperature, and create eight saved drink profiles. These personalized espressos can have individual images and names.

I personally liked the eight customizable drink profiles, as my partner has different preferences. This will come in handy if you plan to use this espresso machine in a shared environment, such as a family home or an office.

Breville Barista Pro LCD lets you see the info about the grinding time, grind size, one or two espresso shots, and extraction controls (water temp and pre-infusion time). You navigate the screen using the grind amount dial, as the screen is not interactive.

You can program the Barista Pro’s one and two-shot settings, including a longer pre-infusion time. The pre-infusion customization is nice as a longer pre-infusion leads to a better puck and avoids channeling issues. You cannot alter the pre-infusion time on the Touch.

Aside from the one and two-cup controls, there’s no more customization. Since it’s a manual steam wand, there’s definitely no cappuccino nor latte control like the Barista Touch.

Personally, I preferred the Breville Barista Touch display. If you love a modern touchscreen and want to be able to save different coffee drink preferences, go for the Barista Touch.

When it comes to drink options, Barista Touch is the winner.There are customizable settings for a latte, flat white, and more. I mentioned you can choose the level of ground coffee according to your preferences. You can also adjust the coffee strength, milk temperature, and texture.

There’s also more room to customize the water temperature on the Barista Touch as it has 10 different settings (going from -5 to +5). The steam wand also has 10 texture settings and granular control for temperature too. You can set it at 8-10 for an airy cappuccino foam, or 1-3 for a steamed flat white.

The one thing I didn’t care for on the Touch display was the customization by time instead of by volume. Usually, you want to order a certain size of coffee, like one or two ounces, not a 20-second or 30-second drink. Most machines, including the Pro, are programmed by volume, which I like.

Apart from having the option to save eight drink recipes, the Barista Touch comes with five pre-programmed drinks: espresso, Americano, cappuccino, flat white, and latte, plus a hot water option for making teas.

Barista Pro doesn’t come with this option. That’s not because you can’t make different espresso drinks. You certainly can. However, the Pro is a more “classic” semi-automatic espresso machine where you make the espresso and steamed milk by hand.

The Barista Pro has a few advantages. First, it’s simple, and simple is easy in this case. Also, the Pro has better custom shot programming because it is set by volume. Meanwhile, the Touch is preset by time. A volume-based setting is much more optimal for pulling espresso. After all, you order a one or two-ounce espresso at a coffee shop, not a 20-second or 30-second one. I recommend using a scale when making a custom drink on the Touch, instead of relying on how long it takes.

Both Barista Pro and Barista Touch have very similar aesthetics. These machines have brushed stainless steel exteriors. However, the Barista Touch only comes in silver and black options, while Pro comes in five different color options.

Both machines have modest footprints. Breville Barista Pro dimensions are 13.9 x 16.1 x 16 inches, weighing 20 pounds. Meanwhile, the Breville Barista Touch dimensions are 12.7 x 15.5 x 16 inches, and it’s somewhat heavier at 26.8 pounds. Barista Touch is wider, while Barista Pro is deeper and bulkier, as it has thicker parts. Both of these should be able to fit in your kitchen without taking up a lot of kitchen real estate.

The biggest difference between the two is that the Breville Barista Touch has a touchscreen (as discussed), which makes it look more modern compared to the Barista Pro.

Both of these espresso machines come with a built-in burr grinder, steam wand, drip tray, and a water tank with a 67oz capacity. The water tank is removable in both machines, so there’s no need to use a pitcher for refilling. Plus, the water tank is easier to clean and maintain.

The Breville Barista Touch has a more advanced, automatic steam wand. The drip tray has a built-in thermometer, which allows you to create microfoam based on your temperature and milk texture settings.

The Touch steam wand is easier to use as it’s more hands-free when it creates the microfoam for milk-based drinks. You can set the temperature and texture level, walk away, and let the steam wand do its thing.

However, always make sure the milk pitcher on the Barista Touch is sitting on the temperature sensor. Otherwise, the wand won’t register the temperature, and it’ll keep frothing and trying to heat the milk. I walked away from it once without appropriately setting the milk jug, and when I came back, there was milk everywhere.

The rotation is different on the two machines. The steam wand only goes up and down on the Barista Touch, while the Barista Pro has a ball joint that rotates (almost) 360 degrees. That makes it easy to do manual steaming on the Pro, while you’ll have to stick with the automatic options on the Touch.

Overall, you can create latte art with both machines. That is, both steam wands can make the right microfoam, but you’ll have to learn to pour the latte art
