Every culture has their version of the Jetsons, a space age existence where everything comes at a touch of a button perhaps even available before you think about it. While it may not predict your brain wave patterns, and it won’t even be able to make an espresso ready for you right when you wake up, but who needs all that when the Breville Inissia provides an incredibly convenient way to create a delicious cup with just the touch of a button. So, let’s start our Breville Inissia Espresso Machine Review.
We still might be waiting for a few of those blessings of the future, but at a priceline that’s perfectly affordable for pretty much any coffee enthusiast the present is still pretty nice too. Of course if you are going to want to make the Breville Inissia Espresso Machine part of your future, you’ll probably want to read along to get the full scoop.
Over the years coffee has gone from drip methods to automatic grinders and pretty much everywhere in between finally the Inissia uses the Nespresso pods to cut out on all the process and keep things simple. The pods will give you an incredible variety when it comes to the different blends of flavor that’ll be possible from all the choices you’ll have. On the other hand you might miss the aroma of freshly ground beans and the level of precision and customization that comes with many of the other types of espresso machines. With the loss in creativity also comes a hidden price tag as the amount you’ll spend on pods in comparison to grinds over the course of time can get pretty staggering over the years.
It’s hard to put a price tag on convenience however and that is certainly where this espresso maker excels. With an incredibly small footprint at right near 5 inches wide it’ll fit effortlessly into any kitchen setup and could even be considered portable to a degree, especially with a weight of under 3 pounds.. Of course you will still need power wherever you go as this machine use a 1200 watt source to proceed with percolation.
You have to respect how efficiently this machine uses that power with the ability to heat up in just 25 seconds. With that speed it won’t be too long before you can pump out the 9 possible cups available with filling the water tank you’ll find on the back side. The water tank is translucent so you can always tell how much you have left and this espresso maker is able to fill a normal cup and even taller ones with a collapsible tray for the larger vessels. Perhaps the most impressive part of this machine with its lower end price and lilliputian build is its ability to pump out the 19 bars of pressure that’ll you’ll find in the standard professional level espresso maker.
Most of the espresso makers in its price range and many costing much more are only capable of producing 15 bars of pressure. This means you are getting that patented level of flavor extraction from the capsule that will make sure you can pretty much always count on a high quality cup of joe. The Inissia is also available in multiple different colors to match your appeal including red, black, titan, or silver (titan is a metallic grey in between black and silver). An automatic shutoff ability is also part of this machines make up making it pretty safe even when you neglect turning it off. The biggest issue here will probably be the risk that comes with the materials being used in a lower end espresso maker however a 1 year warranty helps to curb this fear a bit. Anyway, if you are prepared to spend a little more than I suggest have a look at this model.
Ease Of Use
Without a doubt this is where this espresso maker particularly excels as with just a few little tweaks of the dial and the press of a button you’ll be on your way to a delightful treat. The pods add an extra degree of simplicity as you can decide from many different styles to switch between lattes, cappuccinos, and macchiatos whenever you want. You also won’t need much cleaning either other than looking after the water container and descaling when necessary.
