Breville Luxe Brewer Review (2025): Good Drip, Real Cold Brew
La Nouvelle Breville Luxe Brewer is designed for hot coffee. It makes excellent coffee drop by subtle and warm. But it also does something that no other fantasy coffee maker on the market reaches. This makes real cold brewing coffee – sweet and sweet stuff, the fresh elixir of smooth summers and milky paradise.
Luxury is part of a new generation of drip coffee makers who helped transform the coffee drop in bitter office fuel into a connoisseur subject. The luxury predecessor, the precision brewer, was one of the handles certified by the Specialty Coffee Association to brew drip coffee as a function of narrow landmarks on temperature and extraction. Luxury, but not yet certified, brews according to these same demanding criteria.
Luxury achieves this feat thanks to a lot of technical sophistication. This means PID temperature controllers, closely controlled flows, programmable algorithms for different volumes of water and the same heating technology and the same pump you use to make espresso.
But luxury makes a cold infusion, fortunately, leaving it alone. The real cold infusion is only done with coffee, water and time. Being with this formula or dispatch it, never gives you completely the real thing. Luxury gives you the real thing: maintaining the chamber tent and suspension coffee grounds as long as 24 hours before freeing it in a pending carafe. In a world of coffee makers, desperately to screw up, leaves it alone is equivalent to a wild innovation. I have not seen this function with a coffee maker not done by Breville.
The device is not perfect, of course. There are a few quirks. But luxury is an impressive machine that keeps Breville in the conversation with regard to the best drop -down coffee devices.

Before returning to Cold Brew, let’s talk about drip coffee. It’s good. Luxury is a beautiful device, and also a large one: it makes 12 cups of coffee in a lot, as large as the biggest office brewers but much softer and more precise in the way it brews coffee with jackpot.
The device is programmable in most of its details. By clicking on the Settings option, Coffee Geeks is free to create its own personalized criteria, modulating the temperature of the brewing with a single degree precision. Other parameters adjust the size and time of a flowing style flowering and the coffee flow through a shower -style beer head.
But most people will not care. If you press the “BREW” button, the device will detect the amount of water in the removable water tank and the infusion accordingly. For a coffee in small batch less than 20 ounces, you will use a conical basket insert and conical paper filters. For larger lots, you will use flat -bottomed filters and the default flat -bottom brewing basket.
