BES920 specifications

The Breville BES920 is an exceptional dual boiler espresso machine designed for the at-home coffee enthusiast. Combining professional-grade performance with user-friendly features, this machine allows users to achieve barista-level espresso, making it a popular choice among coffee aficionados.

One of the standout features of the BES920 is its dual boiler system. This technology allows for simultaneous extraction of espresso and frothing of milk, eliminating wait times usually experienced with single boiler machines. This means that users can create lattes and cappuccinos faster and more efficiently, without sacrificing quality.

The BES920 is equipped with precise temperature control, featuring digital temperature control (PID) technology. This ensures that the water temperature remains stable during the brewing process, which is crucial for extracting the best flavors from coffee. Being able to maintain an optimal temperature helps achieve a richer, more balanced espresso shot.

In addition to temperature control, the machine also boasts a pre-infusion function. This feature gently expands the coffee puck to prepare it for extraction, allowing for an even and uniform extraction of flavors. By applying low pressure at the beginning of the brewing process, the BES920 unlocks the rich essence of the coffee grounds, enhancing the overall taste profile.

Another notable aspect of the Breville BES920 is its vibrant LCD display, which provides clear feedback during the brewing process. Users can easily navigate the various settings, including brew temperature, shot volume, and pre-infusion time, allowing for customization tailored to personal taste preferences.

The BES920 also comes with high-quality materials and components. The stainless steel housing not only gives the machine a sleek, professional appearance but also ensures durability. Additionally, the machine features a professional-grade steam wand, allowing users to create microfoam milk for that café-quality finish on their beverages.

For ease of use, the BES920 includes an integrated grind size dial that helps in adjusting the grind settings according to the type of coffee being brewed. It also has a generous water reservoir, making it convenient for multiple coffee servings without constant refilling.

In summary, the Breville BES920 is a powerful and versatile espresso machine that stands out for its dual boiler setup, precise temperature control, pre-infusion feature, and user-friendly interface. It is designed to meet the demands of both experienced baristas and home-cooking enthusiasts, allowing anyone to savor exquisite coffee at home with professional flair. Whether whipping up a quick espresso shot or crafting a complex latte, the BES920 is ready to deliver exceptional results every time.
