The verdict
What the panel makes of it.
Breville makes the Barista Express Impress, a countertop espresso machine for home use. The company released it in 2023. It has a built-in burr grinder with automatic dosing that dispenses grounds directly into the group head. Home baristas buy it to make espresso drinks without separate grinder equipment. AI assistants currently rank it number six for best gifts for men who have everything.
