Breville espresso machines are finally on sale for Black Friday – save up to $500, and get free coffee too

The Barista Touch Impress is a perfect first espresso machine, with a color touchscreen that takes you through each step of making the perfect espresso, latte, flat white or whatever else you fancy. The Impress puck system tamps the coffee without you removing the portafilter from the grinder, meaning there's no chance of spilling grounds all over your kitchen. I love it, and it's received an epic $500 price cut for Black Friday.

I love a coffee maker with a pressure gauge that lets you see whether your shot is properly extracted before you even taste it, and the Barista Express is a perfect example of this feature. It's operated using nicely tactile physical buttons rather than a touchscreen, for that old-school barista experience, and it's got a huge $200 off for Black Friday. Register your purchase within 30 days to get two bags of free coffee and 25% off beans from some of the best roasters in the country.

This particular model is a bit older than the two above, and is only discounted at Amazon, not Breville's own online store. It's the only semi-automatic Breville machine I've seen in this year's sale, and with a discount this steep, I suspect it might not hang around for long. It's available for the same price in stainless steel (shown here) and black. Sadly buying from Amazon means you don't get the free coffee, but with $200 off it's still great value.

Our reviewer called the Creatista "the best Nespresso Vertuo model you can buy", and it's hit a record-low price at Amazon with over $280 off ahead of Black Friday. It blends the convenience of a Nespresso machine with the fun of pouring your own lattes, and is the best-looking capsule coffee maker we've ever had the pleasure of testing. It's a bit cheaper at Amazon than Breville.

Save almost $300 off this premium Nespresso machine from Breville, which takes Nespresso Original capsules (the ones shaped like a top hat) and includes a proper steam wand so you can use your fresh espresso as a base for lattes and cappuccinos. It's available in Black Truffle (shown here) or silver.
