Other model highlights include self-priming operation to eliminate long start-up preparation, removable water tank and drip tray plus a high-quality stainless-steel boiler that ensures many years of sumptuous espresso.

But what makes a great espresso machine?

Great question with an equally interesting answer. To answer this, we go to the 4 key elements that make coffee “café quality.”

1. Dose – 19-22 g dose for full flavour

If you’re wondering why it’s hard to emulate café bought one in your home, that’s because most other automatic machines only use 11-13 g of ground coffee, which is below the usual dose to create that rich, full-bodied taste of premium ones.

2. Temperature – Precise PID temperature control

The difference between ashy and balanced-tasting espresso can go as little as 33.8° F. The Infuser utilizes digital temperature control (PID) technology that detects and reduces any fluctuation during extraction, guaranteeing the temperature is kept at its optimal range, every time.

3. Pressure – Low-pressure pre-infusion and 9 bar extraction pressure

The golden-honey cream in your coffee is achieved only through the right pressure at the right time. The Infuser makes use of low pressure, pre-infusion to consistently soak and develop the ground coffee, bringing a sweet and velvety extraction.

4. Steam – Manually steaming milk to a silky micro-foam texture

To acquire that silky-smooth texture in the coffee milk, you require the perfect steam pressure to draw in the air and form thousands of tiny bubbles. This is the job of the steam wand for the Infuser, which turns milk into a velvety micro-foam, which is vital for latte art.

End Note

Now that you know the top 3 best espresso coffee machines as well as the factors that make a great espresso, the choice is yours to pick the right one for your needs.
