Espresso Machines

There are four types of espresso machines. Super Automatic, Semi-Automatic, Manual and Capsule. Deciding which type is right for you is a personal decision, based on your coffee making habits and preferences. So, welcome and happy shopping!


Super Automatics

These sophisticated machines do it all. They grind, tamp, pre-infuse and brew your espresso shot, and they dispose of the used grinds. They offer various level of programmable features, self-cleaning functions, automated milk-frothing devices and many other advanced capabilities.

Semi-Automatics

In these machines water is delivered by a pump rather than by manual force, and the remaining brew pressure in the basket is dissipated with a three way valve. Coffee grinding, dosing and tamping is done manually, and brew volume is controlled manually.

Manual Machines

These are typically ornate machines, made of materials such as brass, copper, chrome, and occasionally silver. There are two types of manual lever machines; manual piston and spring piston design.

Capsule Machines

These machines boast hassle-free and mess-free easy operation with single-serving disposable capsules, which are pre-packaged and sold separately.
