Sage The Barista Pro (Brushed Stainless Steel)

Make Your Perfect Coffee With The Sage Barista Pro, Ready In Seconds

This is the Sage Barista Pro in Brushed Stainless Steel, also available in Black Truffle and Black Stainless. With the Sage Barista Pro, you have full freedom: you choose your favourite coffee beans, buy them fresh and grind them at home right before brewing. That way you turn whole beans into your perfect espresso, exactly how you like it. The built-in grinder has thirty grind settings, so you dial in the exact grind size for your beans and control your espresso's extraction time. The ThermoJet heating system reaches brewing temperature in three seconds, so you barely wait before your first espresso. The adjustable PID temperature control keeps that temperature stable throughout. Together, they give you a solid, consistent base for every espresso. The LCD screen with a shot timer shows you exactly how long your extraction is running. The manual steam wand lets you froth the milk yourself, for a cappuccino or flat white with real latte art. That's how you learn the whole process step by step, with room to keep growing.

What Makes The Barista Pro Different

The Barista Pro combines everything for a good espresso in one compact machine. The built-in grinder with conical burrs grinds fresh for every espresso, so you don't need a separate grinder. The ThermoJet heating system brings the machine to brewing temperature in three seconds, so you barely have to wait before you brew or steam. The PID temperature control keeps that temperature stable throughout, so the same coffee tastes the same every time. You set the brewing temperature yourself, in five levels from low to high.

Control At Every Step

With thirty grind settings, you fine-tune the grind size to your beans. If the extraction runs too fast, grind a bit finer. If it runs too slow, grind coarser. The LCD screen shows the shot timer running, so you know exactly how long extraction takes. Prefer thirty seconds over twenty? You adjust it yourself, without any hassle.

You tamp the coffee yourself with the tamper, which stores magnetically in the machine. The included Razortool levels the puck to the right height, so you always keep the same amount of coffee in your filter basket. Useful if you'd rather not use a scale. That way you build the skill to brew consistent espresso step by step, without having to master everything at once.

Froth Your Own Milk

The manual steam wand rotates 360 degrees, so you angle the milk jug freely while frothing. The steam is powerful, so you'll get fine microfoam for a cappuccino, flat white or other milk drink. The ThermoJet heating system switches quickly between brewing and steaming, so you don't wait long after pulling a shot before frothing the milk.

What You'll Get In The Box

Everything you need to get started is in the box. You don't need a separate grinder, because it's already built into the machine.

Frequently Asked Questions: Sage The Barista Pro

What is the difference between the Barista Express and the Barista Pro?

Both are complete machines with a built-in grinder. Dosing, tamping and milk frothing happen manually on both machines. The Barista Pro adds a ThermoJet heating system that reaches temperature in three seconds, plus more grind settings (thirty versus sixteen) and an LCD screen with a shot timer for more precise readings. The Barista Express works with buttons and an analogue pressure gauge. It's the affordable choice.

Does the Barista Pro have a built-in grinder?

Yes. The Barista Pro has a built-in grinder with conical burrs, thirty grind settings and a 250-gram bean hopper, so you grind fresh for every espresso. You don't need a separate grinder.

Does the Barista Pro froth milk automatically?

No. The Barista Pro has a manual steam wand that rotates 360 degrees. So you froth the milk yourself, which gives you the freedom to learn latte art. If you'd rather have the milk frothed automatically, look at the Barista Touch Impress or the Oracle models.

How quickly does the Barista Pro reach temperature?

The ThermoJet heating system brings the machine to brewing temperature in about three seconds. So in the morning, you barely have to wait before brewing your first espresso.

Does the Barista Pro have PID control?

Yes. The Barista Pro has an adjustable PID temperature control that keeps the brewing temperature stable throughout the extraction. You set the temperature yourself, in five levels from low to high.

What is the Razortool and what do I use it for?

The Razortool is the included accessory that sets the right puck thickness after tamping. Inside sits a scraper set at a fixed depth. Place it on the rim of your filter basket and turn it round to scrape off any excess coffee. Then tilt the portafilter above your knock box. The loose coffee grounds fall out on their own. If you don't scrape anything off and a gap of more than a millimetre between the Razortool and the tamped coffee remains, there's too little coffee. Add a bit more. That way you keep the same amount of coffee in your filter basket every time, even without a scale.

Which coffee should I use?

Fresh, whole beans give the best result, because you grind them right before brewing. Buy coffee with the roast date printed on the bag. Use it within eight weeks of that date for the best flavour and the most stable extraction. In our roastery, we roast three days a week to ensure your coffee always arrives as fresh as possible.

How do I maintain the Barista Pro?

Clean the machine regularly and descale it on time, especially in hard water areas. Use filtered water or replace the included water filter every three months to limit limescale. You can come to us for advice on this.

I think my machine is faulty. What now?

Do you think your machine is faulty, or is something else going on? Just call, email or WhatsApp us. We already resolve many questions or problems remotely. If we also think something is faulty, you contact Sage Support on 0800-0201741. They discuss the problem with you. Sage picks up the machine from your home for repair.

Can I see the Barista Pro before I buy?

Yes. The Barista Pro is set up in our showroom in Nijmegen. Book an appointment by phone, email or WhatsApp, and we'll take all the time to answer your questions while you see the machine running.

What warranty do I get?

You get 2 years warranty on your Barista Pro. We're your point of contact for advice, and Sage arranges the service, warranty and repair.

How quickly is the machine delivered?

Order on working days before 3pm, and the machine ships the same day.

Goed, op een klein puntje na, het heeft geen voorverwarm plaatje voor de kopjes dat is een gemis, ook het instellen van de temperatuur lost dit helaas niet op.

+ Mooi design

- Geen warmhoudplaatje voor kopjes

Mooi apparaat, even oefenen maar dan heb je ook wat.

+ Werking, gemak, design

- Snoer had iets langer gemogen.

Fantastisch! Dikke aanrader! Fijn in gebruik en door de stoomfunctie kun je de melk goed warm en schuimend maken, ideaal

Top machine!

Tot op heden zijn we nog steeds aan het spelen met de Barista pro. We proberen diverse koffiebonen uit. Een geheel complete review is niet aan de orde omdat we newbees zijn. Maar de cappu en latte smaken heerlijk.

+ Ziet er zeer mooi uit.
+ En kan voor zover we hebben mogen ervaren tot nu toe veel.
+ Een pronkstuk in je keuken.

- Het is voor zo'n apparaat "licht" qua gewicht
- Als je een kopje thee wil maken, moet je goed kijken waar het water vandaan komt. Waterpijp zit goed verstopt.

Hele fijne koffiemachine. Makkelijk in gebruik en maakte heerlijke kopjes koffie!

+ Puck-systeem voor minder rommel in de keuken
+ Prachtig disign
