This stylish Smeg coffee machine is available for less than half price on Black Friday and is still in stock for now

Right now you can buy the stunning Smeg BCC12 espresso machine for just £299 from Marks Electrical – a huge saving of £400 off the RRP and the best Black Friday deal I’ve seen on a coffee machine this year.

Smeg makes some of the best coffee machines available and if you want to add a little Italian style to your morning coffee, this is the way to go. The BCC12 is the brother of the excellent BCC13, which won Best Coffee Maker at this year’s TechRadar Choice Awards for its ability to make barista-quality coffee at the touch of a button. For more information, see my Smeg BCC13 review.

Today’s best Smeg BCC12 deal

The difference to the BCC13 is that the BCC12 has a manual steam nozzle instead of an automatic milk frothing system. I actually prefer the manual option because it gives you more control and allows you to adapt the way the milk is frothed to suit plant-based alternatives. The BCC13’s automatic milk system is optimized for dairy products, and in my testing I found that it doesn’t work as well with plant-based milk.

This huge savings only applies to the Taupe colorway, but it’s a chic shade that suits modern or classic style kitchens, so I’m not complaining. The black and white versions are also on sale, although with significantly smaller discounts for Black Friday.
