Here are the best deals you’ll find during the Fall Bean Bonanza, on the best espresso machines, drip coffee machines, and coffee grinders that WIRED has tested — in some cases for 7 years or more. For a wide range of bargains, check out our absolute best Cyber Monday deals roundup.
$250 off Breville Barista Express
The Breville Barista Express is the unparalleled blockbuster of the espresso world, one of WIRED’s top picks and longtime best-selling machine of its kind on Amazon. The reasons are simple. It hits the Goldilocks sweet spot of taste, ease, and affordability – and never more so than during big sales events. It’s still the one I recommend as the best device for most people, especially as a starter to the espresso world. If you’re looking for a machine that also includes a grinder, you’ll be hard-pressed to find a better or more reliable semi-automatic machine than this Breville. This thing is spinning happily.
Ninja’s best espresso machine is $150 off
When the Ninja Espresso Machine joined the game I was as surprised as anyone else. It’s a tough world full of Italians. I was even more surprised when the Ninja Lux Café Premier performed as well as it did out of the gate when it was introduced last year, with a fantastic milk frother and a bean-assist function that’s useful for dialing in your grind settings seamlessly on the built-in conical burr grinder. This year’s Lux Café Pro is a refined take on the Premier machine, with an automatic tamper and a much-needed hot water spout. Of course, “drip coffee” is not a great shake, and strong iced coffee is not as good as the slower variety. But it’s a great espresso machine for beginners, and the cold foam is best in class. And with this discount, it’s only $100 more than the Lux Café Premier ($499).
This coffee maker lasts forever
Moccamaster KBGV drip coffee machine will work. This will last for years. According to online testimonials, it will probably last for decades. It lasts forever, seemingly in every Scandinavian home – stubborn analog, precisely engineered, repairable and replaceable. Even after its 5-year warranty, you can still get it repaired for about $60 at a North American Moccamaster workshop outside Portland, Oregon. You don’t even need a deal to make it a deal. But there’s a bigger deal. This is over $100 off. This is very good.
De’Longhi Rivelia is on sale at its best ever
The De’Longhi Rivalia is the Italian coffee giant’s new flagship superautomatic machine and the machine that sold me on the idea of superautomatic machines in general. What’s “super” in it? It will basically make any and all types of frothy drinks with barely any involvement on your part. Espresso and Americano and a variety of full coffee-mug drinks require just the press of a button, with a helpful bean assist function that will dial you in for each bean. Milk frothing is very easy and can be customized as per the density. Almost alone among such tools, you can swap between two bean hoppers. This means caffeine in the morning, decaf in the afternoon.
WIRED’s top-pick coffee grinder is $40 off
The Baratza Encore ESP is a coffee grinder that I recommend to anyone who asks if they need a good coffee grinder. They totally do. And it’s one of the most versatile and high-performing I know for its price, with an amazingly fine adjustment on the espresso level of the scale, as well as larger adjustments so you can use this thing for excellent drip, French press, and cold brew as well. Its rugged sturdiness and analog nature means it’s not as pretty as its fellow Opus (also on good sale and a fantastic, very quiet grinder!) but this Baratza will retain power for years without complaint.
