Breville Barista Express

This is the most well rounded espresso machine on the market. It is available at Williams Sonoma and has the perfect blend of automatic & manual features, making it user friendly but still highly customizable.

The bean hopper automatically grinds the perfect amount directly into your portafilter for each shot. This ensures freshness and helps maintain the bold flavor. Also, having the grinder connected to the machine also saves a lot of counter space.

Adjust every setting to create the perfect espresso shot with any type of bean.

Get a great cup of espresso – from bean to brew – in less than a minute. This espresso maker grinds the beans right before brewing. Its interchangeable filters and a choice of automatic or manual operation ensure perfect results from beginner and connoisseur alike.

Best Espresso Beans :

Lavazza Super Crema

I was originally going to add my top 10 favorite espresso beans, however the Super Crema by Lavazza is so good, I didn’t want to recommend anything else.

These are the best coffee beans I have ever tried. I still love to try new ones when I find a cool local coffee shop or roaster, but I always have these on hand. It is the best flavor and creates the most flavor. I do not like acidic espresso, so I love how smooth this espresso is.

  • Mild and creamy medium espresso roast with notes of hazelnuts and brown sugar
  • Blended and roasted in Italy
