Capresso 121.01 Ultima Semi-Automatic Coffee and Espresso/Cappuccino Machine
Why it's a best pick:
An affordable, semi-automatic espresso machine that’s almost as easy to use as more fully automatic machines that can cost thousands. The Capresso 121.01 eliminates the hassle of making cappuccino or espresso because it automatically tamps coffee and discards used coffee grounds. Water heats quickly and the powerful 18 bar pump fills cups from 1-1/2 ounces to 12 ounces with ease. Ideally used in a home or office, this unit will help you quickly and easily brew a great-tasting cup of espresso with excellent crema. As a bonus, it even brews regular coffee.
Manufacturer Description: The best of coffee culture in one convenient package. Eliminating all the strenuous steps of conventional espresso/cappuccino machines - tamping, hot filters and stubborn sieves - this all-in-one center lets you pour in the coffee, switch on the pump and enjoy!
