Breville the Oracle BES980XL

Until now you have been asked to choose between a manual and an automatic.

The Oracle is the world’s first automatic manual espresso machine that brings true café quality to your home without the barista. the Oracle® has automatic grinding, dosing, tamping and milk texturing, automating the two most difficult procedures of manual espresso.

The hands free automatic grind, dose and tamp works with the integrated conical burr grinder to deliver the required amount of coffee, mess free, into the filter basket. The automatic milk texturing then textures milk to the selected temperature and style, from those of less texture such as a silky smooth latte, to those of more texture such as a creamy cappuccino. Finally, the innovative One Touch Americano feature delivers a double espresso, then separately through a dedicated spout, and fills the rest of the cup with hot water, the same way as any good café.

At the heart of the Oracle are its dual stainless steel boilers and patent pending triple heat system. The Oracle has a dedicated espresso boiler with PID technology to extract the espresso shot to within +/- 2°F (1°C) of the selected temperature. The Oracle also has a dedicated steam boiler to deliver instant and continuous steam on demand. You can extract espresso and texture milk simultaneously, allowing you to acquire the delicate aromatics of the espresso in your coffee by having the espresso and milk ready at the same time.

The Oracle also features an Over Pressure Valve (OPV). This commercial feature limits the maximum pressure throughout the extraction, helping to prevent bitter flavors in the shot. It also has true low pressure pre-infusion, which gradually increases the pressure to gently expand the grinds for an even extraction.

The Oracle provides the taste benefits of a manual with the simplicity of an automatic.
