I bought this coffee machine a month ago to replace the same model I bought over six years ago the only difference with this one is i bought the black and silver one to match the new kitchen, excellent machine great coffee I always buy freshly roasted beans for best results.

Ok
Its our first ever coffee machine, so we have nothing to compare it with. Yes it makes a nice coffee, however I find the switch that controls the steam and hot water function extremely stiff to use and not user friendly.
Mr D
Perfect coffee machine for me
Love love my Barista Express! Took some learning, and my biggest tip is to get yourself on YouTube for all the know how about grind size, dosing, puck prep… it’s the best place to learn. Little to no instruction included in the box so this is the first port of call for sure. But the machine is fab, coffee is amazing and I so enjoy the coffee ritual :-)
Tanya
Well tasty!
Takes a bit of getting used to, however once mastered it delivers a superior cup of coffee well on a par with a professional coffee shop. Would recommend.

Early days but so far so good
This machine is still new to us, only a week or so, so we are still fine tuning the grind & mastering the steam wand. Already the coffee is tasting better than our previous machine which was not a Sage. The only problem that we are encountering is the rather alarming amount of water appearing in the tray underneath after making two coffees!

Wow, what an upgrade.
I only recently bought this to replace my De'Longhi one button Magnifica S, and wow, what a difference. It is, however, much more fiddly than a one-button espresso, but very worth it. As far as I can tell, it has everything an espresso machine should have, and seems great value for money. Unless it breaks with time, I think it was a great value for money.

Far more rewarding, environmentally friendly and much cheaper than using pods
It's the perfect machine if you want to learn the art of coffee making, from the correct bean grind size, weight and extraction duration through to milk frothing and latte art. If you just want a machine that makes coffee at the press of a single button then look for other machines, but I can thoroughly recommend this to anyone who wants to do what a barista does in a coffee shop. It doesn't take make practice to become proficient in the entire process and it's far more rewarding, environmentally friendly and much cheaper than using pods. There's things to do to keep the machine maintained such as a cleaning and descale cycle but all those things are explained and become very easy to do.

Very disappointed
I bought this machine a few months ago and am very disappointed the coffee it serves up is no different than instant, a total waste of money

Hello CH,
I can advise the following for the Sage BES875UK The Barista Express Espresso Coffee Machine:
This grinds the beans for you, the hopper at the top feeds directly. However if you do want to use pre ground, you can.

Hi Id,

Hi There
Sage BES875UK The Barista Express Espresso Coffee Machine
Having checked the manual I don't think this would work Sanjay as you need to be able to lift the water tank straight up to take to off and put it back in place again. You also need to be able to open the bean hopper and have room to fill from the top. Please see manual below if you would like to check:
