Overview
A 20 bar espresso machine with an NTC temperature control system that targets 90 to 96 degrees Celsius, a steam wand for milk, and both an automatic espresso mode and a manual extraction mode you time yourself.
Where many entry-level machines offer just a fixed shot, this one adds a manual mode alongside the automatic single and double shot settings, so the extraction time and yield are up to the user rather than fixed. A detachable water tank and drip tray are meant to simplify cleanup, and suction cup feet on the base are meant to keep it from shifting on the counter.
- 20 bar pump, NTC temp control 90-96C
- 30 second preheat
- Auto single/double shot plus manual mode
- Detachable water tank and drip tray
Who it's for
Home users who want the option to switch between a simple automatic shot and manually timed extraction. Not the pick for anyone who wants a pod-style, single-button machine with nothing to adjust.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Both automatic and manual extraction modes
- NTC temperature control targets a set range
- Steam wand for milk drinks
- Detachable tank and drip tray for cleaning
- ABS body rather than full stainless steel
- No non-pressurized basket mentioned for advanced dialing-in
Performance notes
The NTC sensor holds water in the 90 to 96 degree Celsius range and preheats in about 30 seconds, which is meant to keep extraction consistent shot to shot. In auto mode, a single shot runs about 28 seconds for 25 to 40 grams and a double about 42 seconds for 55 to 85 grams; manual mode lets extraction run up to 102 seconds for a larger 180 to 350 gram pour. The steam wand runs separately for texturing milk, and suction cup feet on the base are meant to keep the machine from shifting during use.
