Since 1978

Almost fifty years, one obsession.

Briel started in Porto in 1978 making toys and appliances. By 1990 it made nothing but espresso machines.

Our story

Engineered in Braga

Made, not assembled.

We design every machine in Braga and make over 60% of its components here. The stainless-steel boiler is Italian-made. Every part has a replacement, so a Briel is repaired, not replaced.
