When buying an espresso machine, it's important that it's easy to use and set up since it can seem so complicated for people who are new to the coffee world. The programmable features of this product make it all easy. In addition to 11 grinding settings and coffee powder quantity, the sieve holder is also integrated into a conical roller mill with programmable settings. It minimises the amount of effort needed in order to produce high-quality coffee just like a coffee shop. Water quantity can be programmed depending on the cup you want to use for your speciality coffee, ranging from espresso and latte macchiato all the way up to Cafe Crema.
Sometimes espresso machines feel too large and bulky, but this machine is sleek, compact and designed to take up as little space as possible on the counter. The machine's brushed stainless steel frame creates a sturdy exterior but gives a commercial coffee shop feel to your kitchen. The design goes beyond the appearance of the product and into its innovative design, such as its 6-cup heated warming plate. In the world of coffee making, warming plates are used to enhance the flavour of your coffee - a cold cup when pouring hot espresso can destabilise the temperature, resulting in a bitter aftertaste. It's not just about heating coffee cups, it also has a thermoblock heat system that will warm your machine and be ready for use in only 1.5 minutes. You can easily make up to 30 espresso shots in one go thanks to the removable 2-litre water tank. On top of the machine is a bean container which can hold up to 220 grams of fresh coffee beans, and it even has measurements for filling lines.
This pump may not seem important if you are new to the coffee world, however in order to extract cream foam from coffee powder, a ULKA pump is added to espresso machines to apply pressure in the brewing phase of your coffee. That's why in a coffee shop you get a rich, solid foam on top of your coffee. In particular, this ULKA pump is 15 bar which is the maximum amount of pressure an espresso pump can produce, ensuring a quick but full extraction of your coffee. A pressure indicator is added on the machine's side to monitor this function.
Aside from the wonderful benefits that this espresso machine offers, it also contains a great number of useful accessories so you will be ready to get started as soon as your appliance arrives. Within your box, you will receive a double-walled insert for 1 and 2 cups, a filter insert for ESE pods, a milk frothing can, a measuring spoon with an espresso tamper, a cleaning tool and a water filter!
