Achieve third-wave specialty coffee at home with precise dose, pressure, temperature, and microfoam milk for latte art.
Categories : Espresso Machines
SKU : BRE-ESP-021
The Breville Infuser BES840XL is designed for coffee enthusiasts who demand café-quality espresso at home. Using the 4 Keys Formula—dose, pressure, temperature, and microfoam—this machine extracts balanced shots with rich crema every time. Its low-pressure pre-infusion gradually ramps up to 9 bar for even flavor extraction, while digital PID temperature control locks in 200°F with ±2°F adjustability. The manual steam wand reaches 1650W for high-pressure microfoam, essential for latte art. Whether you're pulling a quick single shot or crafting a cappuccino, the Infuser brings professional precision to your countertop.
Feature deep-dive: The 15-bar Italian pump delivers consistent pressure, complemented by a pressure gauge that guides extraction quality. The ThermoBlock heating system reaches optimal temperature in under 60 seconds, with an auto-purge cycle after steaming to maintain shot temperature. Volumetric shot control offers 1-shot, 2-shot, or manual pour options, while the adjustable temperature increments of 2°F let you fine-tune for different beans. The included 54mm portafilter accepts pressurized and non-pressurized baskets—single (7g) and dual (14g) wall filters—for versatility with fresh or pre-ground coffee.
Unlike competitor machines that sacrifice temperature stability or steam power, the Infuser combines PID control and a commercial-grade steam wand in one compact unit. The pressure gauge and volumetric shot control give you repeatable results, while the auto-purge prevents burnt shots. It’s the ideal upgrade from basic pump machines, offering third-wave capabilities without a commercial price tag.

Breville’s Infuser is built for those who crave the nuanced flavors of third-wave coffee without leaving the kitchen. Inspired by commercial machines, it integrates the four key variables professional baristas control: dose, pressure, temperature, and milk texture. The result is a consistently balanced shot with rich crema and a velvet mouthfeel, ready to become your morning ritual.
The 15-bar pump and low-pressure pre-infusion gently bloom the grounds before full extraction, revealing subtle tasting notes. Digital PID temperature control locks in 200°F and lets you adjust in 2°F increments to suit different bean profiles. The pressure gauge on the front panel provides real-time feedback, so you can fine-tune your grind for optimal flow.
With 1650W of steam power, the manual wand quickly textures milk to a velvety microfoam, essential for free-poured latte art. The auto-purge cycle then ensures the heating system resets quickly, so your next shot won’t taste of burnt milk.
Every component, from the brushed stainless steel body to the die-cast portafilter, is engineered for durability. Breville backs it with a 2-year warranty and a support team that understands coffee.
The Infuser offers a balance of automation and control; the volumetric buttons and pressure gauge help beginners achieve consistent results. The 15-bar pump and PID control ensure reliable extraction, but manual steaming requires practice for microfoam.
Yes, the manual steam wand at 1650W produces high-quality microfoam for lattes and cappuccinos. The 12 oz stainless steel milk jug included is suited for single drinks, but you can use any pitcher.
The water tank holds 60 oz (1.8 L), enough for approximately 6 double shots before refilling. It is removable and easy to clean.
Regular descaling every 3 months is recommended. The auto-purge system helps maintain temperature, but you should also clean the steam wand tip with the included tool after each use.










I've had this for about three weeks. The pressure gauge really helps dialing in beans. My mochas taste better than the café down the street.
Works as expected, no complaints.
The microfoam for latte art is great once you get the hang of the steam wand. Took me a few tries though. Also the water tank could be a touch bigger.
I compared this to a Gaggia and a Rancilio. This one has pre-infusion which makes a difference. Temperature stability is solid. I'm pulling consistent shots after only a month.
Bought this for our home office. My husband and I both use it daily. Easy to clean and the shots are rich.
Makes great espresso but the tamper is plastic and feels cheap. Also the drip tray is small. I have to empty it after two drinks. Overall happy though.
After using a pod machine for years, this is night and day. The PID controller holds temp steady. Worth the learning curve.
This thing is heavier than I expected. But the build quality is nice. Shots are hot and the steam wand has good power.
I used to spend $5 a day. Now I save money and my drinks taste better. The pre-infusion really makes a difference for lighter roasts. Very happy.
My friend has the same model for two years. So I got one. No regrets.
