sage oracle – refurbished premium espresso machine for the home
Our refurbished machines are the choice for those who want to combine a premium feel, high capacity, and a more conscious way to invest in coffee equipment. This model has been previously returned and then undergone thorough testing, had wear parts replaced, and the electronics checked and replaced if needed. For you, this means a more accessible path to an advanced espresso machine for the home with the same weight, finish, and presence on the kitchen counter that has made the model so appreciated.
More information
sage oracle is designed for those who want a café feel at home without having to master every step from day one. With oracle touch you get a well-designed workstation that handles grinding, dosing, tamping, and milk texturing all in one machine made of brushed stainless steel. The result is noticeable immediately in the cup: deeper aroma, denser crema, and a more consistent espresso – from the first morning espresso to a long breakfast with guests.
Automated precision that gives you better espresso right from the start
This model takes care of several steps that otherwise require the most experience. The beans are ground just before brewing in the integrated conical Baratza® grinder, the machine automatically doses and tamps 22 g of coffee in a professional 58 mm Portafilter for a more even and reliable result. When you want to go further, there is also room for more manual control over flow, taste, and extraction.
Dual boiler for espresso and milk at the same time
Two separate stainless steel boilers let you brew espresso and texture milk simultaneously, without waiting between steps. This provides better temperature stability, faster workflow, and a feel close to a professional espresso machine. For cappuccino, flat white, and latte, it is clearly noticeable – in the rhythm, the temperature, and the final result in the cup.
45 grind settings and up to 8 personal drinks
Real espresso starts with the right grind size. Here you get 45 settings that make it easier to adjust the brewing to different beans, roast levels, and taste preferences. You can also Save up to 8 personal drink profiles, so your favorites are always close at hand on the screen when you want to switch between espresso, long black, or milk-based coffee drinks.
PID temperature control for cleaner, sweeter, and more balanced flavor
Small temperature differences affect the taste more than many think. That’s why the machine works with digital PID temperature control that keeps the brew temperature stable during extraction. This results in a cup with better balance, where the coffee’s sweetness, acidity, and body come forward more clearly and with greater nuance.
Controlled pressure for more even extraction
The low-pressure pre-infusion gently wets the coffee puck before full extraction begins with 9 bar via an Italian 15-bar pump. This provides a calmer start, more even flow, and less risk of uneven extraction and excessive bitterness. For those seeking an experience with a clear sage barista oracle character in the home kitchen, this is a detail that really shows in the taste.
Automatic milk texturing with Auto MilQ™
With a single button press, the machine creates hands-free microfoam with a glossy, soft, and even texture. You can adjust the milk temperature between 40 °C and 75 °C and choose from 9 texture levels, so the cappuccino gets richer foam and the latte a silky surface. It’s convenient, but above all, it shows in the mouthfeel and how well the drink holds together from the first to the last sip.
Touchscreen that makes advanced coffee brewing intuitive
The automatic touchscreen quickly guides you to the right drink and settings without unnecessary hassle. You get a modern user experience where advanced technology feels accessible even in a busy everyday life. This is an important reason why many choose oracle touch: high quality in the cup, but with a much simpler path to get there.

Care instructions
Keep the touchscreen dry and clean for safe and smooth use. Run the machine's cleaning program when prompted, or start it manually via the settings to clean the brew head, shower screen, and backflush system. Always wipe the steam wand and tip immediately after use with a damp cloth and flush the wand right away so milk residues don’t have time to dry. Rinse the filter basket and portafilter in warm water after each use, empty and clean the drip tray regularly, and brush the grinder’s upper and lower burrs as well as the outlet at regular intervals. The water filter should be soaked for 5 minutes before first use and replaced approximately every three months. Feel free to use the included test strip for water hardness and follow the machine’s descaling needs. An honest thing to keep in mind: this is an advanced machine that clearly rewards careful maintenance, both in taste and long-term function. Always turn off the machine, unplug it, and let it cool before cleaning or moving.

Which condition should you choose?
Like new
-
This condition suits you who want to get as close to a new feeling as possible. The machine may have very minor signs of use that are usually only visible from certain angles, typically at the front of the drip tray. The overall impression is very good and practically feels almost new.
Good
This option suits you who want to prioritize function, capacity, and price over cosmetic condition. The machine usually shows more obvious signs of use and may have minor scratches, dents, or marks on edges, but still delivers the same convincing coffee experience where it matters most – in the cup.
