the Dual Boiler, BES920XL specifications

The Breville BES920XL Dual Boiler Espresso Machine is a sophisticated piece of kitchen equipment designed for coffee enthusiasts who demand precision and quality in their brewing process. This machine stands out due to its advanced dual boiler system, allowing users to extract espresso and steam milk simultaneously. This feature significantly reduces wait times, enabling a quicker workflow in busy morning routines or when entertaining guests.

One of the standout characteristics of the Breville BES920XL is its digital temperature control (PID) technology. This innovative feature ensures that the water temperature remains consistent for each shot, providing optimal extraction conditions. Consistency in temperature is crucial for achieving the rich flavors and nuanced profiles that high-quality coffee beans possess.

The BES920XL also comes equipped with a shot clock and pre-infusion functionality. The shot clock helps users keep track of extraction times, ensuring that each shot is pulled to perfection. The pre-infusion feature gradually increases the pressure during the brewing process, allowing the coffee grounds to expand and bloom, which enhances flavor extraction.

Additionally, the machine features a stainless steel construction that not only provides durability but also gives it a professional look fitting for a high-end kitchen. The large water tank, capable of holding 84 ounces, means fewer trips to refill and the convenience of brewing multiple drinks in a row.

Another attractive aspect of the Breville BES920XL is its steam wand, featuring a commercial-style design. This steam wand allows for precise milk texturing and microfoam creation, essential for crafting lattes, cappuccinos, or flat whites. The easy-to-use control dials simplify the processes of adjusting steam pressure and temperature, making it accessible even for those new to espresso making.

In terms of user-friendly features, the BES920XL includes a clear LCD screen displaying important information, such as water temperature and brew time. The intuitive interface helps users navigate through different settings with ease.

Finally, the machine also comes with a range of accessories, including a portafilter, cleaning tools, and a stainless steel milk jug, providing everything needed to start making cafe-quality beverages at home. The Breville BES920XL Dual Boiler Espresso Machine is a perfect investment for those who appreciate the artistry of espresso and desire a high level of control over their brewing process.
