Who needs a coffe shop when you own a kitchen aid espresso machine !!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] "I received these products for free from Influenster and brand(s) in exchange for my honest review."
Kitchen aid semi automatic espresso machine with burr grinder has changed my daily life for the better ,, recently purchased a new home and was elated to know that I have been chosen to receive this product for me to try , after using this product for a couple of weeks and after making multiple drinks before reviewing and giving my honest opinion.
who would of known there’s tons of ways to make drinks using espresso !!! From espresso shots , to espresso martinis you’ll have a blast learning new drinks and polish your techniques , what I love this machine is the sleek stainless steel design , the controls are easy to use , the burr grinder addition is a big plus since you can use your own coffee beans and grind them on the spot , heck , can’t get any fresher then that !! The milk frother is easy to use , you just gotta master the amount of time , angle and hand technique to get that perfect froth , The portafilter is detachable and comes with a handle attached on top which you can be use to pull the container out to clean it or refill water. The water dispenser tray slides with ease to make it easy to clean once you’re done using it .
I do recommend buying some extra accessories like espresso glass or ceramic cups , cappuccino mugs , saucers , spoons specially design for espresso/ cappuccino use. If you’re comfortable using ground coffee instead of coffee beans just make sure you get ground coffee made specially for espresso machines .
Overall I highly recommend this product , the fun you’ll have , the money you’ll save daily , and all those new drinks you get to try daily ,, awesome !!! The compliments you get from friends and family after making them a cappuccino on the spot makes it all worthwhile .

Sleek but a little tricky to get the hang of.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Grinds great, and although I'm getting the hang of getting perfect brew pressure, it brews great. Love the setup and it's sleek look. It is a little tricky to clean the steamer milk wand, its like the finish is coming off a bit...
As far as price goes, I'm not sure what retail is on this, but it's a good machine. Instructions could have been a little better for a newbie at home barista.

Favorite appliance in my kitchen
on April 21, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have never loved waking up on weekends more than after I received this espresso machine. The built in grinder creates the perfect consistency for espresso shots. The machine heats up quickly allowing me to enjoy my coffee faster. It also allows for temperature adjustment to my liking. The steam wand moves around for easy positioning and I really appreciated the included milk pitcher. There is a bit of a learning curve in terms of knowing how long to steam different kinds of milks to get the best consistency for lattes, but it’s something that gets easier with every attempt. The machine is also pretty quiet which I was pleasantly surprised by. All in all, this is my favorite appliance in my entire kitchen and I am very happy with it!

Incredible quality and easy to use!
on April 16, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am in loveeee with this espresso machine! I’ve never had an espresso machine before and this is so easy to use once you try it out a few times. There is built in storage for the 4 different basket types in the tray. The tray also will tell you when the water is full and needs to be dumped, which I love. You don’t need to buy a separate distributor tool after the espresso is ground because the machine does it for you! The bean hopper fits a full 12 oz/340 gram bag of beans. On top of the machine, next to the bean hopper, is a warmer that you can set your coffee on. The water tank is pretty large and I love that it has a filter in it. The milk frothed is fantastic and I love that I can just pour out hot water too if I want. The machine also comes with a very detailed handbook and a recipe booklet. Honestly, I don’t have anything negative to say about this machine. It’s a little expensive, but absolutely worth the price tag. It’s very similar to the breville machine for comparison! I love kitchen aid products though, and love that they made this machine.

Makes the best espresso drinks, worth every penny
on March 13, 2024
Posted by: aqsam8
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m in LOVE with this espresso machine, it’s the best thing that has happened to me in a long time. Took a little second to figure out the machine but once it’s running you’re bound to have amazing espresso drinks for life!! It grinds and dispenses the perfect amount of coffee into the portafilter and brews such a balanced coffee shot. The machine is high quality, versatile and stylish .It has customisable setting for pressure, grind and temperature which is very easy to understand too. It’s very convenient and with a milk frother it’s all-in-one design to make it worth every penny. The machine also comes with its own water filtration system so you don’t have to worry about the water quality. The best thing is that it comes with multiple attachments for portafilters so you can adjust your shots. Bonus part: it come with a little cleanup kit too to make the cleaning part easy. All in all i would highly recommend this machine.
