Summary
Both of these also happen to be among their favorite espresso machines for most people—the devices the reporter often recommend to espresso beginners who'd like to stop paying $7 a drink at Starbucks. Breville's Barista Express is a semiautomatic espresso machine, which means that the grinder and steaming wand are included in the machine—a one-stop shop for milk-frothy drinks. WIRED has been recommending the Express as one of their favorite espresso makers for about a decade for its mix of value, reliability, precision, and ease of use. Why's it so popular?
