Best praise vs top criticism for Breville Oracle Touch
“Last time I needed an NTC temperature sensor from Sage, all I had to do was call them and their support gave me the part number and the website to order it from (their parts reseller in Denmark is CJdele.dk) This was for an Oracle Touch”
“Even a somewhat automated espresso machine like Oracle Touch requires a fair amount of fiddling. She might be happier with a fully auto espresso machine like the ones discussed in r/superautomatic. They are all "just push a button" machines. The downside is that the espresso they produce isn't as good.”
