Look forward to coffee every morning
Very happy with this coffee machine. It's so easy to use and makes wonderful cappuccinos. It's very helpful to be able to adjust the temperature and the frothiness of the milk. Our friends and family members can't get enough when they visit. Highly recommend!

Great coffee machine
Love love love this machine
Coffee is perfect every time.
Really easy to use
Only had one issue with it and that is the milk no longer froths like it used to. So can only make flat whites no cappuccino or lattes. Consent affect taste just appearance.
Have tried cleaning all the milk frother part but hasn’t made any difference

Cafe quality coffee at home
Coffee quality was an absolute delight, Lavazza ORO and Pablo and Rustys coffee beans worked amazingly through the grind process to give a light fluffy cream'e, a great coffee machine for any home.

Breville Oracle
We purchased the Breville Oracle from good guys a week ago, absolutely love this machine! We had the Breville Barista previous and loved that machine but decided to treat ourselves with the Oracle. Being a coffee lover this machine does not disappoint. Don’t think we will be buying coffee from a cafe in a hurry. Definitely 100% recommend booking in for the white glove service that is free and provided at purchase of this awesome machine. Emily from Breville was fantastic,could not be happier with her knowledge and the personal service of her coming to our house and showing the features and run down of the machine. Would definitely recommend this machine to family and friends.

Great coffee machine
I did a lot of research on a number of brands and machines before settling on this one and I couldn't be happier. It certainly is cafe quality, if not better. I've been told I'm pretty fussy about my coffee, but this machine consistently produces a great brew with the touch of a few buttons. If you live in Perth like me, make sure you book in the White Glove demo by Emily, she is very professional, friendly and has good tips on getting the most out of the machine to produce the coffee you and your friends like, as well as cleaning and maintenance.

The best coffee machine on the market.
The quality of the coffee brewed can be adjusted to one’s palette with the variable grind control and brewing time.
Consistency in the quality of coffee being brewed can be controlled daily pending on the age of the beans.
The adjustable temperature control is terrific.

Good Coffee Maker
Now I can't say that I am an expert with coffee machines and I fine my self regularly looking at the manual but this is a great coffee machine. It is consistently good and the build quality of it is great. Only issue I face is cleaning it.

Got 12 months, now broken down
The machine produces beautiful coffee, the machine is very consistent, with the veraible temperature
you can have whatever temperature you like. The problem we have had when grinding in to the portafilter, it kept grinding filling the coffee shute above the tamper, and not shutting off.
We contacted Harvey/Norman and Breville arranged to pick up the machine. They replaced the Tamper Gearbox & Assembly + new Tamper Fan. All Steam Boiler pipes & probe seals. Took 3 weeks to get back, All working perfectly, Thanks Breville.

Great, but disappointed as its aging
Was overjoyed with the Oracle when it was new. Then over time ( even with thorough and regular cleaning/care) have had to replace frother unit/ thermo which is complete unit and expensive job. Now leaking from around group head.

Excellent UNTIL, its not all good :
We love this coffee machine so much we have purchased it for the 2nd time in 5 years.
Makes the best, just like barista made, Have had professional barista use at home and loved it.
This all good until its 18mths old, just short of 2 yr guarantee, then the error messages start.
From the beginning:
5yrs ago purchased previous model BES900 ( separate grinder model) perfect until 18mths old, it went for repair for boiler problem( that took 1 mth waiting for repair) it lasted 6 mths then failed again, Contacted Breville sorry no longer covered b...Read more

Amazing experience so far!
We are very satisfied with the recent purchase of "The Oracle Touch". It's been an amazing experience so far.
Extremely happy with the service provided by Breville's customer care service. An extremely knowledgeable professional "Tanya" walked into our home and shared her wealth of knowledge and experience regarding Coffee beans, Brewing and the machine itself. We were glad to book in this appointment which was so useful.
Thank you, Tanya, for your excellent presentation regarding the machine in such a clear and simple language.

Questions & Answers
David W.asked
Grinder not working on my 10 month old oracle. The process starts when I turn the portafilter but then it stops without the grinder ever going into motion. I’ve completely disassembled the grinder (as much as I’m allowed to without actually getting under the hood of the car). Sometimes (like 1 out of 100) it will work for no apparent reason, but then immediately fails again. Any ideas??
2 answers
If you have cleaned it all out etc, and still no go. Its a warranty claim, they have a 2 yr warranty.
Thanks for the reply. It’s on its way to service...

What issues should I be looking for - I have an opportunity to purchase a second hand Oracle for $650. Current owner says it needs a new filter and is a regrettable sale. Just wondering what other issues this machine tends to commonly have?
