    Overview

    Two of Breville’s most beloved coffee machines, the Oracle and the Barista Touch, combine their smartest features to bring you the Oracle Touch. If you’re after a speedy transition from bean to cup, this machine automates every stage of the coffee-making process.

    The intuitive touch screen allows you to select from pre-programmed beverages like a cappuccino or a latte, while also giving you the ability to create and save up to eight personalised coffees. The machine will grind, dose, and tamp your coffee into the portafilter, and its automatic steam wand will heat and texture your milk to give you a fine microfoam. Because the machine contains dual boilers, you can steam milk before your shot finishes extracting.

    Full automation does not diminish your coffee experience. The sounds of grinding, dripping, and hissing are still there. If anything, the Oracle Touch will enhance your coffee experience with its high-volume output and precise temperature control.
    Touch screen display

    The beverage menu contains everything from an Americano to a cappuccino. Within each beverage, you can adjust the strength, milk texture, and temperature. If you find a combination of variables that makes a lasting impression on your palate, you can give it a name and save it to the machine's interface. You can save up to eight different coffee beverages.

    Independent dual boilers

    Don’t sit around twiddling your thumbs while your espresso extracts. This machine’s dual boiler technology will allow you to steam milk at the same time. This is handy for when you have friends over and everyone puts their hand up for a coffee. The espresso boiler delivers a consistent temperature for optimum flavour, while the steam boiler uses instant, powerful steam to produce a velvety microfoam.

    Auto grind, dose, and tamp

    Packing your coffee grounds into the portafilter is arguably the messiest part of preparing espresso. This machine’s fully-integrated conical burr grinder will automatically grind, dose, and tamp 22 grams of coffee. All you have to do is choose the grind setting that works for you.

    Auto steam wand

    Using a manual steam wand is synonymous with hot hands. You can adjust the milk temperature and texture using the touch screen menu, while the wand purges itself of milk residue when turned downward.

    A very good machine , except for the single filter problem .
    I have had this machine for 3 months, I hesitated buying it as it is a lot of money but really please I have purchased it . Very easy machine to use , I’m a person who is prepared to buy good products , and I expect them to perform or they are returned, I don’t like fiddling about as with other machines, if I want a good coffee I get one from this machine , I only gave it 4 stars due to the single dose filter being a load of rubbish, yes it works until you want to remove the puck , I use the sage vacuum puck sucker . The double filter works really well the puck comes out without any residue left in the filter but the single filter leaves a lot of residue . The difference between the 2 filters is the double filter is polished internal stainless steel the single filter has a grey coating on the inner surface which stops the puck coming out whole, is this a common fault or has the manufacturer made an error????? . There is a question I read issued by Sage , How often do you buy coffee in a cafe, very often before I had this machine , but now it’s one a week , the cost of my coffee is now very low and the quality is very high . The time to make a coffee on this machine is quick , just program in the time to turn itself on and your coffee will be ready in a few minutes.

    Great replacement for a Nespresso capsule machine….
    Bought as a replacement for a Nespresso capsule machine, should have done it earlier. No comparison. Would highly recommend the Oracle Touch.
