The Barista Touch brings genuine espresso bar performance into your kitchen without the space demands or learning curve. The integrated conical burr grinder delivers freshly ground coffee on demand, whilst the 15 bar Italian pump and 9 bar extraction create the deep, complex flavours that proper espresso is known for. The automatic steam wand froths milk to silky microfoam in seconds, or you can hand texture like a proper barista if you fancy the control. The touch screen means no complicated levers or dials: adjust your coffee strength, milk temperature, and texture to suit your taste, then save up to 8 personalised recipes for next time. With ThermoJet heating reaching temperature in 3 seconds, there is very little standing between you and a properly made coffee.

CARE
Daily backflushing and purging: After each use, backflush the portafilter (without a basket) to clear residual grounds. Use the automatic steam wand purge function to clear milk immediately after steaming. This prevents dried milk and grounds from building up inside the machine.
Cleaning the portafilter and baskets: Rinse the portafilter and baskets immediately after use. The baskets rinse clean quickly. Once a week, soak them in espresso machine cleaning solution to remove oil buildup that affects extraction.
Steam wand maintenance: Wipe the steam wand clean immediately after steaming milk. The automatic purge function clears most buildup, but hand wiping with a damp cloth prevents milk from drying on the tip. Weekly, soak the wand tip in hot water and cleaning solution.
Water tank and filter care: Empty and rinse the water tank weekly. Replace the ClaroSwiss water filter every 2 months or when flow rate slows. Use the included water hardness test strip to monitor mineral content and descale the machine every 3-6 months depending on your water hardness.
Grinder maintenance: The conical burrs are low-maintenance, but coffee oils accumulate over time. Run the grinder through a cleaning cycle monthly using grinder-specific cleaning granules (not included). Never immerse the grinder housing in water.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Do I need to be a barista to use this machine?
No. The touch screen and automatic milk texturing handle the technical work for you. If you just want a flat white, you press a button and it happens. But if you want to tinker with grind, temperature, and texture, the machine gives you that control. It meets you wherever you are.
What's the difference between automatic and manual milk texturing?
Automatic texturing froths and pours for you in seconds. Manual texturing gives you the steam wand and a jug, so you control the pour angle, height, and duration like a café barista. Automatic is faster and more consistent; manual is more tactile and flexible if you're experimenting.
How much space does it actually take up?
At 32cm square and 41cm tall, it's genuinely compact for a machine with a built-in grinder and steam wand. It won't disappear into a small kitchen, but it's smaller than most traditional espresso setups and designed to live on your worktop without dominating it.
What's included in the box?
The machine comes with everything you need to start: portafilter, single and double wall baskets, stainless steel jug, grinder, steam wand, integrated tamper, Dosing Funnel, Razor precision dose trimming tool, water filter, cleaning kit, and a water hardness test strip. You don't need to buy extras to get started.
