Breville's First Espresso Machine with Plant-Based Milk Functionality

Breville, the iconic global brand that delivers award-winning coffee machines to consumers around the world, launched its next generation home espresso machine, the Barista TouchTM Impress – the first of its kind to feature plant-based milk settings.
The Barista TouchTM Impress introduces new plant-based milk functionality to Breville’s AutoMILQTM technology, a leading-edge solution that effectively and precisely froths oat, almond, soy and dairy milk according to their unique properties. With 40% of Australian households now drinking plant- based milks, and the number one use of those milks being in coffee*, Breville brings to market this thoughtful and intuitive machine that recognizes plant-based milk drinkers.
The Barista TouchTM Impress also features new touch-screen Barista Guidance, a smart technology developed by Breville to remove the complexity of dialling in the machine – the fundamental step in mastering a perfectly balanced espresso. Barista Guidance intuitively identifies adjustments to grind size based on extraction flow in real-time and offers helpful suggestions to ensure the user achieves their perfect shot.
To include the entire family, Breville has also added three new non-espresso drink options to this machine: hot chocolate, hot tea, and babyccino.
