Breville 800ESXL Commercial 15-Bar Triple-Priming Die-Cast Espresso Machine

The Breville 800ESXL Commercial Die Cast Designed Espresso Machine is incredibly beautiful, as well, as functional! It has a thermo block heating system, 15 bar Italian made pump, dual wall crema system, a pre-brew function and an auto-purge function (anti burn) just to name a few. This espresso machine will look gorgeous on your countertop in your coffee shop or in kitchen. It’s a functional show piece.

Housed in heavy-duty die-cast stainless steel, this attractive commercial espresso machine features a 15-bar Italian-made pump and a ThermoBlock heating system that maintains water at an ideal 204 degrees F during extraction. Prior to extraction, the unique 15-bar Triple Prime pump automatically releases three bursts of hot water in the filter head, causing the ground coffee or espresso pod to expand. This increases pressure, allowing the machine to extract more crema, giving the coffee a rich, smooth texture and taste. The machine’s fully die-cast selector dial enables simple switching between espresso, steam, and hot water. When turned to the left, users can alternate between hot water and steam using the illuminating solid-steel buttons. The right position gives manual control of the espresso-making process.

Mounted on a swivel ball for easy maneuverability, the unit’s stainless-steel steam wand produces continuous dry steam for barista-style milk and froth. The wand also dispenses hot water on demand for tea and other hot beverages. Included are single (7 gram), double (14 gram), and pod filters. Each solid stainless-steel filter incorporates Breville’s unique dual-wall crema technology, which produces a back pressure inside the head that, together with the Triple-Prime pump, extracts more flavor and texture from the coffee. With a full 4-1/2-inch clearance, the machine accommodates large cups and travel mugs, making it ideal not just for espresso, but also americano, cappuccino, and cafe latte. The 75-ounce removable illuminated water tank produces 50 single shots of espresso before refilling, and is conveniently accessible from both the front and the rear of the unit. Other useful details include a unique auto-purge function, a 72-square-inch solid-steel cup-warming tray, a large 1-liter drip tray with “full” indicator, cord storage, a patented power-assist cord, and a concealed accessory storage compartment. Accessories include a tamping tool/measuring spoon, a cleaning tool, and a stainless-steel frothing pitcher.

Great machine and great customer service September 29, 2006

I love this espresso maker, but I am even more impressed with Breville’s customer service. I had a problem with the machine after 9 months and they replaced it, payed for the shipping and did not even need my receipt. They said if the machine has their name on it they will replace it. I was very impressed. And it makes great espresso.

Beautifully designed, but missing important elements, October 19, 2005
By Jonathan Birge (Cambridge, MA)

From a interface and asthetic point of view, the machine is flawless. It’s beautiful and solid, and has many nice touches like an integral storage bin and swiveling steam wand. Having said that, it’s missing a few things on the INSIDE that you’d expect from a $400 machine:

For one, it uses a thermoblock. This results in a pressure drop and uneven heating compared to a boiler, which is why there is the need for the double-wall crema system. (I’m referring here to pump machines with boilers, not the cheap steam machines.) This is why you’ll find that after brewing you have a soupy sludge instead of the hard dry puck considered an indicator of proper espresso brewing.

Second, the filters and group head aren’t made of brass (which is more temperature stable) like you’ll see in machines of similar price.

Personally, I’m not sure I have a sophisticated enough palette to discern a difference between espresso from this and a machine with better parts. But given that you’re considering spending $400 on an espresso machine, I assume you might be a purist and somebody who cares about getting the best for your money. I also feel the need to offset some of the other breathless reviews by people who clearly haven’t bothered to do even a minimal amount of research on espresso machines.

Despite the above, the machine produces very good espresso, as far as I can tell, and it IS beautiful. My guess is that it overcomes some of its component shortcomings with nice engineering (such as the auto-purge feature to avoid scalding the grounds). However, you have to wonder if you’re really getting your money’s worth where it counts, when there are machines out there at half the price with better internal components and plumbing. You should be able to find machines with more stable temperature and higher effective pressure for much less money if you’re willing to go for substance over looks.
