Product description
Pull Your Own Espresso With The Sage Barista Express
This is the Sage Barista Express in Brushed Stainless Steel, also available in Black Truffle. Going from whole coffee to espresso in the cup takes about a minute on this machine. You grind right before brewing with the built-in grinder and its conical burrs, which doses the right amount straight into the portafilter. The dial sets your grind size across sixteen settings, and you decide the dose automatically or by hand. The digital temperature control (PID) keeps the water at the right temperature, so your espresso tastes the same every time. You tamp the coffee yourself and froth the milk yourself with the steam wand. That way you learn step by step what each setting does to your coffee.

What Makes The Barista Express Different
The Barista Express is the entry model that leaves everything in your hands. Grinding, dosing, tamping and milk frothing sit in one machine, without a separate grinder next to it. The grinder doses straight into the portafilter, but you decide how much and how fine. The pressure gauge on the front shows you where your pressure lands while you brew, which tells you whether your grind size and dose are right. The digital temperature control keeps the water at the right temperature, so the full flavour of your espresso comes through.
Control At Every Step
With sixteen grind settings you dial the grind size in to your coffee. If the extraction runs too fast, grind a bit finer. If it runs too slow, grind coarser. The pressure gauge moves along with the extraction, so you'll see what your adjustment does instead of guessing at it.
You tamp the coffee yourself with the tamper. Tamping is the part that takes the most practice, which is exactly why you learn quickly here: you feel and see straight away what an even puck does to your shot.
Froth Your Own Milk
The powerful steam wand gives you silky microfoam for a cappuccino, flat white or other milk drink, which is what latte art asks for. You steer the steam yourself, so you hear and see what happens in the jug. That is the fastest way to learn where to stop.
No Beans Yet?

Frequently Asked Questions: Sage The Barista Express
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 reaches temperature in three seconds thanks to ThermoJet, has thirty grind settings instead of sixteen, an LCD screen and a larger drip tray with more room to work on. The Barista Express works with buttons and an analogue pressure gauge. It's the affordable choice.
Which colours is the Barista Express available in?
Brushed Stainless Steel and Black Truffle, a matte black finish.
Does the Barista Express have a built-in grinder?
Yes, with conical burrs and sixteen grind settings. The grinder doses straight into the portafilter, automatically or by hand, so you grind fresh for every shot. You don't need a separate grinder.
How quickly does the Barista Express reach temperature?
The Barista Express uses a Thermocoil heating system, so it needs a moment before you can brew. If you'd rather not wait at all, the Barista Pro reaches brewing temperature in three seconds with ThermoJet.
Does the Barista Express froth milk automatically?
No. You steer the steam wand yourself and froth the milk by hand, 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.
Does the Barista Express have PID control?
Yes. The digital temperature control (PID) keeps the water at the right temperature while you brew. That is what you need to make the same coffee taste the same every time.
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 Express?
Clean the machine regularly and descale it on time, especially in hard water areas. Use filtered water or replace the 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 Express before I buy?
Yes. The Barista Express 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 Express. We're your point of contact for advice, and Sage arranges the service, warranty and repair.
How quickly is the machine delivered?

Coffee the way it was meant to be
At Blommers we follow coffee from the source to the cup. We work directly with farmers who know what they are doing and roast in a way that keeps the original flavour intact.
Alles wat we verkopen, van malers tot brewers, hebben we zelf getest. In onze ontwikkelruimte werken we dagelijks met de apparatuur, zodat het advies dat we geven is gebaseerd op ervaring en niet op een specificatieblad.
