A latte lover’s espresso machine
on March 14, 2024
Posted by: anhv10
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This espresso machine is absolutely remarkable. With the same dimensions as shown on the box (2nd picture), it’s perfect fit for my kitchen. As a latte enthusiast, I can attest to its incredible value. Not only does it quickly pay for itself with my daily latte fix, but it also covers the cost of beans, milk, and cleaning supplies. Its maintenance routine is where the real magic happens. Just daily wipe-downs and regular filter changes ensure exceptional brewing quality and prolong its lifespan. It’s really a must-have for latte lovers to elevate coffee experience at home.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This kitchen aid espresso machine is a true all in one. The quiet mark technology makes the machine so much quieter than any other I have used. The built in burr grinder creates an exceptional result that produces a rich brew quality that I love. For the money I believe that it is definitely worth the price versus compares me models. I have always loved kitchen aid products and this kitchen aid simi automatic espresso machine with burr grinder did not disappoint!

Great espresso machine and easy to use!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The KitchenAid Semi-Automatic Espresso with Burr Grinder exceeded by expectations. It wasn’t difficult to use and the noise level wasn’t extremely loud. I was given the option to choose my basket type from both single wall or double wall. I chose the double wall setting and used Harry & David Vanilla Crème Brûlée ground coffee. The temperature settings were a plus. I was allowed to choose from three different settings (Low, Medium and High). It was very easy to clean. Lastly, included with this espresso machine was a recipe book. I have already experimented with so many recipes. I made an Americano my, Macchiato, and the Espresso Martini. They were quite delicious. I will be continuing to experiment using other recipes. This is by far the best espresso machine I have ever used. I would highly recommend this product to all looking to make a great espresso.

Very customizable!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If you know your way around an espresso machine, this should be easy to use! If you don't, it's fairly easy to learn.
I really like how fine it grinds the beans, which is very important to me. It includes a cleaning mode, which is extremely helpful.
This machine is quite heavy, but it seems very durable. It comes with 4 different metal blind filters, which I am still figuring out the difference between the filters and which ones gives me the best espresso shot.
The grinder option for a double shot does grind a lot of coffee, where it seems like it's overflowing. If I do use the double shot setting on the grinder, I will set it so it's closer to the "less" than a full double shot setting.
The drawer that holds the filters can get stuck if you don't pull it straight out.
The water tank comes with a water filter, which I think is a plus because then you aren't getting the harsh water running through the machine.

I’m impressed!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review. Kitchenaid products are a staple in my kitchen and for good reason! This compact full service espresso machine comes with a grinder, steamer and all the needed accessories. There is a slight learning curve with how to use the machine, but after you read through the manual once, you’ll pretty much get the hang of it. The grinder creates a uniform grind based on your desired level of coarseness. The espresso shot itself extracts with a nice crema and you could easily enjoy it alone or turn it into whatever espresso based beverage you’d like.

Fantastic Machine
on March 21, 2024
Posted by: glampalette
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This espresso machine rules. It grinds the beans, dispenses them, makes the espresso, and steams the milk. It does everything and I love it more than any appliance in my house. It’s pretty quiet when grinding which I really like. Has double or single shot espresso option. There’s a pressure meter and a lever to adjust the coarseness of the beans. I love everything about it. I’ll be using this thing for years.
