The design of this espresso machine was inspired by professional baristas, so it looks like something you would find in a high-end coffee shop. It has a built-in burr grinder, which is clouted for being a premium type of coffee grinder compared to blade grinders. (It grinds coffee by passing beans through two burrs versus chopping them with a blade.) It also has a steam wand for frothing milk. Even though this machine is manual, it comes with handy features like the Smart Tamping Station, which ensures you get the correct tamping pressure for your grounds with the press of a lever. You can customize your grind size with eight different settings which we found easy to adjust. (The grind size is just another way you can adjust the taste of your espresso.) Our pros loved the espresso the machine produced that was full-bodied with thin, silky crema. Besides a single espresso, it also offers options to make a double espresso or Americano. This sleek-looking machine is a steal for espresso makers with grinders at under $1,000, but keep in mind that there may be an initial learning curve to get the correct grind size for your ideal shot. Overall, we found this machine easy to use and clean.
