When you first operate a Sage coffee machine, you’ll notice how it artfully combines traditional espresso machine aesthetics with modern, automated features. Created for those who enjoy the subtleties of coffee preparation, Sage coffee machines give you the tools to master your barista craftsmanship at home. Built upon a profound understanding of the art and science of coffee brewing, Sage’s legacy shines through in every model they produce. From pioneering early market innovations to integrating advanced technology that shapes today’s coffee brewing techniques, Sage continues to set the standard, offering both timeless design and cutting-edge functionality in each machine.
The third coffee wave started in 2002, in Oslo. This term describes a movement proclaiming that coffee preparation isn’t just another function performed by a person standing behind the bar — instead, it’s an art form. This movement ultimately turned into the era that we’ve been living in for the past 20 years or so. Thanks to this wave, when we go to a café, we’re welcomed by baristas who do their job responsibly and with great finesse. Not only do they know which beans are best suited for your chosen drink, but they also select the beans carefully and purchase those that are guaranteed to result in coffee of the highest quality. It was this movement that gave rise to the development of micro-roasteries, the concept of coffee tasting notes and the highest level of respect paid to a skillful barista. Seeking to get the sector of home-brewed coffee up to speed as well, Sage started constructing their machines in a way that now allows you to not only feel like a true home barista, but to have all the necessary tools to actually be one.
Sage The Bambino
The Bambino model is the smallest semi-automatic coffee machine produced by this manufacturer. Despite its modest size, the 54-mm portafilter holds 19 grams of coffee — just the right amount for rich, strong espresso. To ensure even thicker consistency, the machine dampens ground coffee before preparation, hence helping its best qualities to be unveiled fully once the water starts running (otherwise, only the flavour of the middle layer would be extracted). This compact machine will also allow you to froth milk, which means that you’ll be able to prepare every classic coffee drink out there.
The biggest advantage of this Sage The Duo-Temp model lies in its two stainless-steel boilers: one for coffee and one for steam. They’ll enable you to prepare several portions of coffee in a row and froth milk for them without having to refill the machine or losing the required temperature. Thanks to the advanced system of this machine, not only does it maintain the needed temperature with extreme precision, but it also helps water reach the right heat in mere seconds.
Sage The Barista Express model is equipped with an integrated conical grinder that will let you grind your beans freshly prior to each preparation of a drink. The finer the grind, the more intense and bitter the flavour of your coffee will be, but the coarser the grind, the more watery and acidic the resulting drink will become. This is not to say that one of these grind levels is the right one — the best coffee is perfectly balanced, and this grinder will help you discover that balance with ease. Moreover, the machine automatically tamps coffee in the portafilter, hence forming a ground coffee tablet. Once espresso is brewed, you can immediately froth some milk and prepare a delicious latte. In addition to saving a great deal of time, you’ll be in control of every aspect of the prepared drink.
If you’re not a professional barista yet, the Barista Pro model may help you become one! Not only will you be able to change the majority of the settings, but the machine will also let you monitor the coffee brewing process on a large LCD screen. As soon as espresso is brewed, you can start frothing milk — thanks to the modern “ThermoJet” technology, steam reaches the required temperature in as little as 3 seconds. If that’s not enough, the sensors in the water boiler will enable you to track water temperature and ensure that the drink is being prepared using a stable temperature that is in keeping with your needs and wants. The steam wand of this appliance is particularly powerful, so milk foam can be frothed with extreme precision and incredible speed. The functions of this machine prove that it’s not called Barista for nothing — and using such an appliance will make you feel like a full-fledged barista as well.
The Sage Dual Boiler comes in stainless steel design, featuring dual boilers that allow you to extract espresso at the perfect temperature while simultaneously frothing milk to the right consistency. This unit’s generous 2.4-liter water tank facilitates the preparation of multiple beverages in succession. The intuitive black and white screen interface streamlines operation, allowing for tailored coffee volumes and programmable portion sizes, enhancing both functionality and user engagement. A manual frother, coupled with a PID temperature controller, puts you in command, ensuring each cup meets your exact standards. Complete with a passive cup warmer and a versatile hot water wand, this espresso machine also includes a professional pressure gauge to monitor extraction precision.

Sage has been involved in the coffee-brewing business for years, this allowed for strong traditions and a unique attitude to form — guided by the latter, Sage keeps manufacturing coffee machines today. The company believes that in order to prepare the perfect cup of coffee, four key factors must be assessed and carefully managed.
The company’s uncompromising attitude towards these criteria ensures that you won’t get lost in the coffee brewing process and will be able to closely monitor every element that has an impact on the final taste of your drink. With a coffee machine produced by Sage standing in your kitchen, you’ll feel like a true third-wave barista!
Maintaining a Sage coffee machine is essential to ensure each cup of coffee remains exceptional. These machines are designed with clean, intuitive interfaces that make regular upkeep straightforward. Sage recommends a regular cleaning regimen that involves descaling to remove mineral buildup and using specialized cleaning tablets to clean the brewing unit and ensure optimal performance. For models with milk frothing capabilities, it’s important to clean the steam wand after each use to prevent milk residue from affecting the machine’s functionality and the taste of your coffee. By adhering to these simple maintenance steps, you can extend the lifespan of your Sage coffee machine and continue to enjoy perfect coffee, shot after shot.
