The best espresso machine for making strong, smooth coffee at home

I won't whitewash it: making espresso at home is delicate and expensive, especially if you are looking for the best espresso machine on the market. If you are not obsessed with coffee, you may find that a good dumping device is enough to get you up every morning. But if, like me, you feel tied to the barista station of a local coffee shop and dripping is not working, then there is a machine for you. Read on for the best espresso machine for your kitchen and caffeine habits.

Note: The price of an espresso machine can easily exceed $1,000, but if you are looking for your first coffee machine, there are many excellent coffee machines under this benchmark. Therefore, in order to save some budget for premium coffee beans (and of course the new espresso cups and mugs), I kept my top choice under Shanda Coffee and offered two similar espressoes for less than $100. Alternative to coffee.

Breville's Bambino Plus crosses the world of barista-quality espresso and amateur availability, making it the first choice for most families. It is one of Breville's smallest machines, but unlike the original Bambino, when locked in a Portafilter, it is actually too compact to be stable, and the weight of this machine is sufficient to handle the twisting movement of the load. The large removable water filter on the back allows you to pull out a lot of lenses before refilling the water, and the cup warmer on the top is a good choice for such a small machine. But the espresso itself and the simple automatic frothing function are what makes this machine unique. It's easy (and fast!) to pull out a delicious, powerful lens, and steam the smooth, smooth foaming milk. 

This stylish machine has more than eight stylish colors to choose from, including red velvet, black truffle, sea salt and stainless steel (pictured). Regardless of your kitchen color scheme, there is always a Breville Bambino Plus for you. 

Pair this machine with the right coffee beans and you will have everything you need to make a perfect cup of espresso every morning-of course, when it comes to coffee beans, you can buy pre-ground coffee beans, but you want to get the freshest coffee beans , The most delicious coffee, you'd better grind it at home. Pair the Breville Bambino Plus with a Baratza machine, such as the beloved Sette 30, which is a well-made and durable burr grinder.

The price of Bambino's upgraded version of Barista Touch has gone up by a big step, but it comes with an included grinder and provides a wider interface for those looking for a more advanced home espresso machine. Although the touch screen is quite advanced in what it allows you to do (such as saving eight different coffee settings, so everyone in your house can choose their favorite espresso drink), it is quite intuitive. Just a quick glance at the manual (rather than the time spent on YouTube) and you can easily start grinding, pulling and foaming.

If you are willing to give up traditional espresso for the ease of use and cost-effectiveness of the pod machine, Nespresso Essenza Mini is an excellent choice, it can continue to produce high-quality espresso. This baby is also very compact: it measures only 8.1" x 12.8" x 4.3", but the removable water tank can hold 20.3 ounces, so you won’t refill every two cups of coffee. It produces a smooth concentrate Coffee and Longo coffee, and not frivolous at all. This includes drinks that require a milk frother, but you can easily buy the milk frother separately. Or, better yet, buy a frother and a small stove Milk jug: In any case, both are easier to clean than the Nespresso option. The milk jug can be used for milk frothing or as a butter or sauce warmer. If you are looking for a powerful, easy-to-use and non-occupying A machine with a lot of table space, this is a sure choice.

Well, technically speaking, Bialetti, also known as a moka pot, cannot make espresso. But it does use steam to make strong, full-bodied, espresso coffee, and the price is less than $50, which is a close enough comparison. Bialetti is also easy to use. Just fill the central compartment with ground and the bottom compartment with water. Then, wait a few minutes, because the pot will brew the coffee grounds in the reverse direction, pushing the coffee into the top chamber. Be sure to pour into another container (a cup, or if you have made multiple cups, you can also pour a thermos if you have made multiple cups) immediately after completion to avoid the scary appearance of the moka pot coffee when it lingers on the stove The burning smell or it has been in the pot for too long. 

Similarly, not very strong coffee, but this small pressurized coffee machine will produce similar results, which you can easily make in an office or hotel room. All you need is hot water and a cup, or, if you choose the Philharmonic travel kit, the gearbox can actually double as your cup. AeroPress and Go can make one to three cups of high-quality espresso per press, because you will generate this pressure yourself (this is a muscle-driven device), which is definitely more for a family of one or two people Good—especially where counter space is at a premium.

If you often drink French press at home and have been playing with an entry-level espresso machine, try AeroPress as an intermediate step. You will be attracted by the smoothness of the coffee, because you completely avoid the acidity produced by the French filter press during the long brewing process.
