Sage - The Barista Touch - Bean to Cup Coffee Machine with Grinder, Milk Frother and With Cold Brew Fuction, Latte, Cappucino, Espresso Maker, 5 Presets, 2L, 1680 W, With Cleaning Kit, Black Truffle

After much research we bought this for my son’s Christmas present. We now make regular trips to his house just to drink his coffee. More than we thought we would pay, but its an investment piece; a strong and good quality product and he loves it.

I’ve been after this machine for over two years now and yesterday took delivery. I held off just because of price. While I absolutely love coffee, I think we can all agree that £1000 on a machine is a lot of money to spend. Fortunately I managed to get this for £799 in a sale and honestly, it’s worth every penny. If you want coffee shop quality coffee at home then look no further. A beautiful machine and stands out in any kitchen. Easy to use with a great user interface to take you through step by step and of course, superb tasting fresh coffee.

Upgraded from a fully automatic bean to cup machine to this semi auto after my previous machine died. I wanted the little bit more input into the coffee making process without having to go on a barista training course.. it’s takes a bit more effort to get the right setting, but that’s part of the fun. Love the machine, it pulls consistent nice shots of expresso, wish I got it earlier.. it handy that it cleans its self and reminds you of when to replace the filter and do the other cleaning cycles.

UPDATED after longer use. Very good machine. Star lost as imho overpriced. Great, simple menu system. Fast, intuitive set-up. After couple of practices, very quick to make a perfect coffee, even if done 'manually'. Very easy milk heating and clean up. Lots to explore once used to the basics, and worth tweaking the settings. Minor wrankles for completeness: first one poorly packed and dead on arrival - Amazon did brilliantly in sorting it though. Water top up fiddly. Standard coffee grind amount wasteful but easy to adjust. If portafilter fitting in the mount seems too stiff, you're probably overdoing the dose. Works equally well with beans and pre ground but changing the baskets hard on the fingers. If you're in a hard water area think carefully about the ongoing cost of filters and descalers and, I imagine, it will be a short product life.

It’s very useful and has user friendly menu. Bought this after returning Philips beans to cup machine which serving nearly cld coffee. This machine serves coffee and milk hot enough.

I must say I have researched and looked for ages - but this machine exceeds my expectations - beautifully made - it is a fabulous design and easy to use - and works so well ! It clicks into place and is idiot proof ! I fancied myself as a bit of a barista so thought about the dual boiler - but heck why overcomplicate things - The hardest part is not drinking coffee all day !! Highly recommended

Had the machine a few weeks now and the whole family love it. Brings the 'Costa' experience to home and the machine is designed to be as 'idiot' proof as possible. That said, a bit of trial and error is required to get the grind adjusted and the whole tamping, brewing, and frothing thing takes a few goes to get right. I have a new found respect for professional baristas! This machine is expensive but no regrets on spending the cash so far.

Even better when purchased on Prime day, but making great coffee at home is a must. Spend a bit of time to dial in your beans blend and you'll reap the rewards. Best purchase this year for me!! So easy to use, pick your brew, press go. Highly recommended.

I can't stop making coffee since I've received it Amazing, easy, professional and spot on professional product ....

The product broke within 6 months and had to be sent for repair.
