[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was my first experience with an automatic espresso machine and I was delighted with how easy the Baristina was to get set up. I cleaned a few parts, added water and beans, and it was ready to go. One thing that stands out is just how quiet the bean grinder is. I thought all grinders were noisy in some regard, but wow, this thing is quick and you barely hear it. Surprisingly enough, the milk frother was significantly louder. It's a high pitched screech too, and one reason I didn't give the machine 5 stars. Not a deal breaker, but something to consider if you like your mornings quiet like me. The espresso is fresh and there's a noticeable difference from express coffees like you get from pods. The fresh bean smell is another pro! The only thing I feel like is missing is the option for a double shot of espresso, since this is my preferred cup. I got the Baristina in white, but the drips and occasional coffee grounds around the machine are definitely noticeable and require wiping up often. I'd definitely opt for the black machine if you can.. Anonymous. Sautee, GA. Tue Jun 09 2026
