Kitchenaid Semi Auto Metal Espresso Maker

If you're like many people, espresso is a beverage that warms your heart and gets you through the day. Over the course of a year, the use of KitchenAid's Semi-Automatic Espresso Maker can pay for itself and save you money over the long term without sacrificing the quality and taste you've grown accustomed to. KitchenAid's precision engineering is a fundamental aspect of this machine's appeal. Its fast-heating thermocoil technology heats the water up to an ideal brewing temperature in less than 45 seconds while "residential first" dual smart sensors will maintain optimal brewing temperatures to ensure espressos, cappuccinos, and lattes are exactly the way you like them, time after time. Low-pressure pre-infusion slowly and steadily adds water to ground coffee for expansion before extraction while optimal pressure from the 15-bar Italian Pump partners in making a deliciously rich, thick crema. The 58-mm commercial-grade portafilter has two recessed spouts and a flat base for easy, stable tamping maintaining optimal heat throughout extraction.

In case you were wondering, style, use and clean-up were no design afterthought with this first-in-class espresso machine. A dosage selector allows you to program your preferred shot size (1 or 2) and the programmable "clean me" indicator alerts you to when the machine requires a cleaning cycle. Measuring in at 13.25" L x 6.5" W x 11.25" H, this sleek brushed stainless steel espresso maker will fit nicely and stylishly on your countertops, and by placing your mugs on top of the machine during the brewing cycle, you'll find the machine warms them to a complimentary temperature as well. Espressos, lattes, and cappuccinos, just the way you like them, all courtesy of the KitchenAid® Metal Semi-Automatic Espresso Machine.
