- Breville has launched a new line of Brass Accents kitchen appliances
- Bundle includes our top-rated espresso machine, the Barista Touch Impress
- It’s part of a general move away from clinical stainless steel in the kitchen.
Breville has revamped many of its top kitchen appliances for 2025, including our top-rated espresso machine, the Barista Touch Impress. Rather than clinical stainless steel, which has long been the standard color for coffee makers, the Barista Touch Impress is now available with warm-toned metal, paired with soft shades of blue, olive green, and off-white.
The Breville Barista Touch Impress has long held the top spot in our guide to the best espresso machines thanks to its effortless automated dosing, grinding, tamping and milk frothing, which creates consistently good coffee, time and time again .
“Even for experienced baristas [who] are restricted in terms of time and space, the compact form and simplicity of composing different coffees makes the Barista Touch Impress a highly desirable machine,” wrote our reviewer Joel Burgess, who gave the machine five stars.
The Brass Accents collection also includes the Breville Toast Select, Smart Oven Air Fryer and Juice Fountain Cold. The range is available to purchase now directly from Breville and Williams Sonoma in the US.
A natural touch
Breville’s new appliances continue a trend toward warm, natural hues that we first saw last year when KitchenAid released its wildly popular (and somewhat controversial) Design Series Evergreen stand mixer. The machine has a sage green body, brass accents, leaf decals, and a real walnut wood bowl.
Some bakers expressed concern that the bowl (which requires special care to keep it in good condition) would be impractical, but Wired writer Kat Merck found it worked very well for baking. daily baking, especially for whipping egg whites and cream.
Most recently, KitchenAid announced that its entire line of espresso machines are now available in a subtle cream shade called Porcelain White. The last coffee maker to get a facelift was the KF60 bean-to-cup machine, which I’ll be reviewing for TechRadar in a few weeks.
