Introducing Breville's "the Oracle" Espresso Machine, the world's first automatic-manual espresso machine that delivers authentic café quality coffee to your home. A breeze to use, this espresso machine comes with a variety of useful features like automatic grinding, dosing, tamping and milk texturing. It was meticulously engineered in Sydney with more than three years of research and development to ensure top-of-the-line quality.

Key Features

  • Fast and Straightforward: Enjoy premium-tasting coffee at any time of the day. The Oracle offers seamless operations and can produce two lattes or two cappuccinos in 90 seconds!
  • Capacity: The Bean Hopper has a 280g capacity, while the water tank can contain up to 2.5L.
  • Precise Extraction: Its dual stainless steel boiler heating system and heated 58mm group head incorporate Digital Temperature Control (PID) to keep the water at the right temperature. This technology allows for optimum flavour extraction.
  • Ultimate Convenience: Extract your coffee and froth your milk simultaneously with the independent brew boiler and steam boiler.
  • Burr Grinder: Equipped with a conical burr grinder that grinds, doses and tamps up to 22 grams of coffee directly into the portafilter. You can choose from 45 distinct grind settings to satisfy your bean preference.
  • Pre-infusion: This function gently provides low water pressure around 2-4 bars so coffee grinds can expand and enhance oils' release. It then boosts the water pressure to 9 bars for full extraction. You can easily program the pressure and duration.
  • Milk Texturing: Utilises a self-cleaning steam wand that textures milk according to your liking. It also delivers third-wave specialty micro-foam so you can easily make latté art and unleash your inner barista.
  • Auto Purge Feature: Say goodbye to bitter or burnt-tasting coffee. The automatic purge function flushes the overheated water to achieve the ideal espresso extraction temperature.
  • Flexible Shot Control: To help you quickly adjust how much espresso you would like to add to your cup, the Oracle lets you select from one shot, two shots or manual control.
  • LCD Display: Thanks to its built-in LCD, you'll be able to easily view the relevant information needed to make a café quality coffee every time. Adjust grind settings, milk texture, and temperatures on the fly.
  • One-Touch Americano: It integrates a one-touch Americano feature that pours double espresso and adds hot water straight to your cup.
  • Easy Maintenance: Thanks to its Clean Me function, the machine will display when a cleaning cycle is required (after approx. 200 shots).
  • Dedicated Hot Water Button: This handy button lets you heat cups, prepare water for tea, or even rinse your milk jug.
  • What's in the box: Coffee machine & Accs: Mini Grinds Bin, Cleaning kit, Steam wand spare parts, and 480ml Stainless Steel Milk Jug.

Breville the Oracle Espresso Machine - Black Truffle is rated 4.8 out of 5 by 151.
Rated 4 out of 5 by from Breville oracle The breville Orical is a really good machine. I can’t fault how easy it is just to make coffee, steam milk and how quick it heats up. I love th auto turn off feature and the cleaner reminders it has built in. A big 2L water tank which is amazing. Some issues which is a shame considering the price, the auto tamp is temperamental, and sometimes will not tamp, I purchased an additional tamp in order to not waist coffee. I don’t bother placing the cups on top of the machine anymore as I don’t find it heats them up. Overall due to the how easy it is to use the machine and the quality of coffee I would recommend this machine.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Beyond our expectations We recently moved to a new property and as part of the move the intent was to finally have a quality coffee machine. After much research we pur chased the Oracle to provide the advanced automated functions to maximise efficiency, accuracy and quality output whilst still allowing user customisation to cater for different tastes and beans. Setting up and getting started was so easy. I had read about the importance of bean selection and sought out a local coffee roaster to obtain fresh beans. With some experimentation with grind level and milk texture level we are enjoying great coffee when we want without driving to the shops or cafe. We had a friend visit who owns a restaurant and she was vvery impressed saying it was as good as they make with their commercial machine. We love it and look forward to drinking great coffee for years to come. Thanks Breville.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Excellent machine but varying expresso volume size On the positives, easy to use and makes fantastic cups of coffee. This stopped me buying coffee from the local shop as its better than the local shops. Its Well-built and love the matt black finish. Few niggles in that i cant get the expresso volume to be consistent using same beans same grind each time. It is nearly consistent, then all of a sudden there will be an expresso that's half the volume! Then it will return to normal and make 5-6 shots perfectly. Weird. Also love to see a tiny bit more thoughtfulness in that a black milk jug would have matched the black unit much better than the supplied stainless one.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Oracle Touch Purchased this as an upgrade from our Breville BES860 which has served us for many years. The Oracle Touch is amazing and makes consistently great coffee every time. We also were gifted through a promo, the coffee bean canister which is also great! The only down side to this model as opposed to the previous model I had, you cannot adjust the amount of coffee the machine grinds, so it will always grind for a double shot-you cannot do a single shot :( I was looking everywhere for the single porta filter to find that it wasn’t an option :( Overall, fabulous product & would definitely recommend!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from The Breville Oracle Purchasing the Breville Oracle has changed my mornings forever. So many things I love about this coffee machine. It’s so easy to make coffee with the auto grind and tamping feature and no mess. We have a lot of visitors and family drop in with many different milk choices for their coffee. No problems here. I can honestly say that the steam wand for milk frothing is amazing. Perfectly froths any kind of milk I give it. I love nice hot coffee and to be able to set the milk temperature and the amount of foam I want is fantastic. The Breville Oracle makes just as good a coffee as any coffee shop I’ve been to. In fact, I don’t go to coffee shops anymore. A worthwhile investment and it has a sleek and modern style that adds to my kitchen. I wouldn’t be without it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best at-home coffee machine! Upgraded from the Breville Barista Express to the Breville Oracle and haven’t looked back! Love the automated functions - makes it quicker and easier working at home to make coffee throughout the day. Would 100% recommend!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Two months of solid use So far, it has been quite good. The automation is good and the milk frothing has been great! I'm not a. Coffee fanatic and don't know all of the in and outs but I can appreciate what a great coffee is and the coffee this machine makes is pretty good. I've only had in two months and I've read quite a lot of reviews regarding inconsistencies in shot volume or taste, and other tamping and grinding issues. So far I haven't noticed any of these and I hope I don't experience them later on either. I do think my Bambino Plus made an equally, if not slightly better, tasting coffee.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from When you can make better quality coffee at home than the cafe! OMG - I cannot recommend highly enough. Although it's pricey - the money I've saved in the last 2 years. I rarely buy coffee out now, unless I'm out with friends and really want one. So the amount of $ I've saved here. I've had it more than 2 years, and it's still working as well as day 1. Love the ability to change settings (e.g. hotter milk, hotter coffee, etc). It is high quality (i.e. you do pay for what you get), and well made. If you're a coffee lover or drink a lot of coffee...you'll wonder why you didn't buy one earlier!!! Consider it an investment :)
