Sage The Dual Boiler BES920UK Espresso Coffee Machine - Stainless Steel

As a coffee lover wanted to reduce costs from my daily trips for a latte / flat white - and the double boiler (no wait for steaming) seemed best option. Results (minus latte art) are better than local shops already (1 wk), and machine is easy to use. It does take a bit of getting used too, how much coffee to put in, how to steam, ensuring right basket's in (not for pre ground if grinding yourself) but once you've got a basic understanding results are great. The only question is how will it last over time but hopefully with regular cleaning (which is reminds you to do) will last well past the point it's paid for itself

I have had other coffee machines before with reasonably good results, but if you appreciate the very best coffee from freshly ground beans, this machine will give results comparable to the very best coffee cafes. You will need to practise a little to get the correct dosage and milk frothing for your particular style of coffee. This machine has a really powerful pump and two large boilers, qualities essential for a good coffee. When making several coffees this machine will turn out results in double quick time and not keep your guests waiting. I prefer to use a separate grinder rather than one incorporated with the main machine. My previous coffee machine had to be tipped upside down on a couple to of occasions to remove foreign objects hidden in the beans. This latest machine is too heavy to do that. This is everything I want from a coffee maker.

A high quality product from Sage which is simple to use once you spend a bit of time familiarising yourself with the controls. Already making some good tasting coffee, but know I can improve with changes to grind size, Temperature and time of extraction. Steam wand makes great textured milk and machine is easy to clean. All in all very satisfied with the product.

Very pleased with the coffee machine. Works perfectly! Very quick and easy to set up. Nice and compact so not too big for our little cafe. Would highly recommend!

The Sage Dual Boiler is a first class coffee maker, no more waiting between extracting coffee and heating up for steam, this does them both at the same time. Out of the box it’s easy enough for a beginner but it has the capacity to take a good home barista to the next level. This one replaces my Gaggia Classic which has served me well but now I’m ready to move up in the world and this is the machine to take me there!

Dipping my feet into the world of owning a small coffee shop that's truly dog friendly I was in need of a new coffee machine because my small household one would not suffice so the search began. Many consultations with suppliers, visits from reps and heart-breaking decisions to make it was decided we could no longer go down this avenue.....that was until we found this one, The Sage Dual Boiler. A few hours of debating whether it would hold up and the decision was made, we would give it a go. At the end of the day its a fraction of the cost of a full commercial machine. So here I am 2 weeks down the line, 3kg of coffee beans and tons of happy faces I can honestly say hand on heart it was the right choice. It heats up extremely quick, offers user changeable settings to tweak your machine should you need to and is so easy to clean. It has to be on any true coffee lovers list. It is capable of pumping out coffee after coffee with consistency. The only essential purchase I would say is a thermometer for heating your milk to the right temps. Especially if like us you use milk alternatives like Oat and Soya.
