    The Starbucks Barista makes great coffee. Is a little slow but worth the wait! I love my Starbucks machine.

    It compliments the whole complete necessity of starting a day with starbuck coffee made from a Starbucks Barista coffee machine.

    well... in response to the person whos Starbucks Barista coffee machine is slowly dying...if it still works, there may be hope. you just need to find a repair place or something. if its really bad, your probably going to have to buy a new one. but its not all bad! because you can get an amazing new coffee machine through this link: http://www.strongvend.co.ukwhats even better is you can write a review on the new one once youve got it!

    I have had this fabulous Starbucks Barista machine for over 15 years at two or three lattes a day and have had only one problem . About 5 years ago , water started to leak around the filter. This was resolved by replacing the rubber gasket. The only problem was the difficulty in getting the old gasket out. I was blessed to have a friend who had the specialized wrench to remove it. I might add that I used it as back up in my small restaurant if my fancy commercial cappuccino machine was broken. ...

    A very good cappuccino machine! If you have the means to spend this much on a coffee pot, by all means do so. It works great, unlike those dreadful and cheap espresso/cappuccino makers at the bargain stores. I got mine four years ago and still love it!

    Never have I experienced a home made brew that seemed coming the masters brew in my favorite coffee shop. The Starbucks Barista might be quite expensive but its worth it specially when I'm to busy with homework to go out for a cup of good brew coffee. It's worth the value.

    We have saved alot of money by making coffees at home with this Starbucks Barista, but a $350 dollar machine should last longer than two years. We are having electrical problems also. It pops the breaker. After you clean the water reservoir it takes along time to prime the system.

    Made good cappuccino. But every time I plug it in, my outlet circuit breaks. Can't see any shorts occurring so I'm out. But to have this problem after the short period of time, it wasn't worth the money!

    Bought a Starbucks Barista. It broke but I didn't receive any service or help when out of guarantee period, making it an expensive mistake for me!

    A great machine. From the first cup, the flavor has been great. Just follow the simple directions. Good quality.

    I would recommend the Starbucks Barista over others I've seen friends and family own because it simply makes better coffee drinks.

    I love my Barista! I don't use it as often as I used to, but it's still nice to have. You have to be careful to avoid air locks, so ensure that you "bleed" the system every time (it only takes a second). Also, don't forget to wipe the steam wand thoroughly, as milk can dry and block it.

    I have been using a Starbucks Barista Athena for about 6 years or so, regularly at a friend's and absolutely loved the coffee, and the crema it produced. The coffee was not bitter and I was so impressed. Finally I purchased one of the newer ones as they were on sale. Each cup has been bitter, although I did the exact same procedures and used the same coffee as in the Athena... but I am really disappointed and am going to return the machine.

    This machine has saved me over 5000.00 in coffee drinks and after three years it continues to crank out the lattes!

    The Starbucks Barista machine is an absolutely wonderful product. I actually look forwad to getting up in the morning because I start the day with a home-made cup of Starbucks cappucino.

    I've had my starbucks barista machine for over three years now, I loved it when I first got it and I still love it. The filling of the cold, fresh water everytime you use it and the priming every time you use it becomes second nature. It makes exellent esspresso. Cappuccino takes a bit longer because of the steaming involved but worth the effort.

    Having acquired a huge taste for coffee, and espresso especially, it was inevitable that I would purchase an espresso machine eventually. Despite the bewildering array of machines on offer I decided to go with the Starbucks Barista machine. Buying it was easy (I even managed to get a 10% discount for walking away with an ex-display model) and subsequent visits to my local branch for advice on using it were met by helpful, patient staff. The machine itself proved a joy to use. The process ...

    With the Starbucks barista espresso machine, you have to prime the pump, clean the dregs from last time, clean the steam wand etc but if you NEED good espresso and americano like I do then it just has to be done. I've waited a year to buy this espresso machine and got it when it was 20% off with a milk thermometer, shot glasses and plenty of Starbucks espresso beans thrown it. Anyone know how to get a good froth on the milk?
