The Sage Barista Express Impress Espresso Machine combines hands-on espresso brewing with intelligent assistance to help create café-quality coffee at home with greater consistency and less mess. Designed for users who want a more traditional barista experience without the steep learning curve, the Barista Express Impress introduces Sage’s innovative Impress™ Puck System for simplified dosing and tamping.

From freshly grinding beans to silky microfoam milk, this all-in-one machine is built to deliver rich espresso and smooth milk-based drinks in under a minute.

Impress™ Puck System

The integrated Impress™ Puck System helps streamline coffee preparation by assisting with dosing and tamping. Intelligent dosing technology monitors previous extractions and automatically adjusts future doses to improve consistency and reduce guesswork.

The assisted tamping system applies a consistent 10kg tamp before finishing with a subtle 7° barista-style twist for a more polished and even coffee puck.

Integrated Precision Grinder

The built-in conical burr grinder features 25 grind settings, allowing you to fine-tune your coffee for espresso extraction and flavour balance. Fresh grinding directly into the portafilter helps maximise aroma and flavour in every cup.

Rich Espresso Extraction

The professional-style 54mm stainless steel portafilter supports an 18g coffee dose to help achieve fuller flavour and balanced extraction. Low-pressure pre-infusion gently saturates the coffee puck before the 9 bar extraction process produces rich espresso with a smooth crema.

Precise Temperature Control

The Thermocoil heating system with PID temperature control maintains brewing water at approximately 93°C for stable extraction temperatures and improved flavour consistency.

Powerful Steam Performance

The steam wand delivers high-pressure steam for creating silky microfoam milk suitable for flat whites, cappuccinos, and latte art.

Our Story

Coffee Craft Studio was created from a genuine appreciation for the craft of coffee. Like many enthusiasts, our journey started with a simple goal—making better coffee. What followed was a deep dive into espresso machines, grinders, and the fine details that separate an average cup from something exceptional.

We experienced first-hand how the right equipment can transform the entire coffee experience. But we also saw how difficult it can be to navigate the market, with too many options and not enough clarity. Coffee Craft Studio was built to solve that problem—offering a focused selection of products that truly deliver, without compromise.

Meet Our Founder

Coffee Craft Studio was founded by Dave England, an entrepreneur driven by a long-standing ambition to build something of his own—something grounded in quality, purpose, and long-term value.

Like many coffee enthusiasts, Dave’s journey began with a simple goal: making better coffee at home. What started as curiosity quickly became an obsession with the finer details—grind consistency, extraction, workflow, and the equipment needed to get it right. Along the way, it became clear that while there were plenty of options on the market, there was a gap for a brand that combined clarity, quality, and trust in one place.

With a background in business and a strong entrepreneurial mindset, Dave set out to create more than just another online store. Coffee Craft Studio was built with intention—from the products selected to the way the brand is positioned—focusing on helping customers confidently invest in equipment that genuinely improves their coffee experience.

At its core, the business reflects two things: a passion for coffee done properly, and a commitment to building a brand that customers can rely on. For Dave, Coffee Craft Studio isn’t just a business—it’s the result of taking that step into entrepreneurship and creating something meaningful from it.

 


We’re more than just a coffee equipment retailer; we’re part of a growing community of baristas who value quality and craft. Our registered office is based in London, but we proudly serve customers across the UK through our trusted courier partners, ensuring reliable and efficient delivery with every order.

What people like

This espresso machine is widely celebrated for its ability to simplify the complex process of making cafe-quality coffee at home. Users specifically appreciate the innovative assisted tamping and intelligent dosing systems, which remove the most common pain points for beginners, such as mess and inconsistent measurements. While it is marketed as a more accessible entry point into the world of manual espresso, it still offers enough control to satisfy enthusiasts who enjoy fine-tuning their brew. The compact, all-in-one design is a major selling point for those with limited counter space, though some owners note that the single-boiler system and the need to dial in new beans require patience. Overall, it is seen as a high-performing, stylish, and user-friendly appliance that provides a significant upgrade over basic pod machines or traditional manual setups.

Pros

  • Assisted Tamping System: The integrated lever ensures a consistent, level tamp with a professional twist, significantly reducing the mess and guesswork usually associated with manual coffee preparation.
  • Intelligent Dosing Technology: The unit automatically calculates the correct amount of coffee for the filter basket based on the previous grind, simplifying the process for consistent results.
  • High Build Quality: Reviewers frequently mention the sturdy stainless steel construction and premium feel, which makes the device a durable and attractive addition to a home kitchen.
  • User Friendly Interface: The control panel is intuitive and provides helpful feedback on dosage levels, making it exceptionally easy for novices to learn the art of espresso making.

Cons

  • Single Boiler System: Because the machine uses a single thermocoil, users cannot pull an espresso shot and steam milk simultaneously, which increases the total time needed to prepare milk-based drinks.
  • Small Drip Tray: The tray beneath the unit fills up quickly due to the automated purging cycles, requiring frequent emptying and cleaning to avoid overflows.
  • Stepped Grind Settings: Some advanced users find the specific number of grind settings slightly limiting compared to professional-grade stepless grinders when trying to perfectly dial in specialty beans.
  • Manual Milk Texturing: While the steam wand is powerful, it requires manual skill and practice to achieve perfect microfoam, which may be a hurdle for those looking for a fully automated experience.
