Quick Overview

It's a must have for those who need to save some serious space: the Cafe Espresso Machine from Capresso. This mini-sized marvel features a thermoblock heating functionality to quickly switch between steaming and brewing. As for the steam wand, Capresso is all about giving you options. The Cafe Espresso Machine has an easily adaptable steam wand to infuse the right amount of air and steam for a nice microfoam, or you can remove it and use a standard steam wand. A pretty rare feature at this price point, indeed.
How the Capresso Cafe Espresso Machine Works
- Dual Frother:This device is easy use and performs very well. There are two parts of the frother. There is a Frothing Sleeve for cappuccinos and when the Frothing Sleeve is removed, it reveals the Steam Tube for lattes.
- Frothing: Frothing Sleeve is in place over the steam tube. Hot steam and air are injected into the milk. The air will swirl inside the milk creating silky dense froth on top of the milk, ideal for a cappuccino.
- Steaming only: Frothing Sleeve is removed to reveal the Steam Tube. Only hot steam will be injected into the milk. This is ideal for a latte.
- Important: To work properly, the Frothing Sleeve and Steam Tube need to be free of any milk deposits from earlier use.

A wonderful product
Review by Milo -
Quality Value Price Good espresso coffee is not abundant where I live, so I make my own. I have found this relatively inexpensive grinder performs as well as a much more expensive model, plus it is extremely quiet.
Pros:
Quiet, Easy To Use, Easy To Clean
Cons:

Works!
Review by Segue -
Quality Value Price It held up quite well to service as a grinder for a coffee booth at a festival. No problems with jamming, which is quite an essential feature when you are running a business! Energy efficient (ran off of batteries with an inverter). Disadvantages: slow to clean if switching between two types of coffee (I had one gourmet blend that was more expensive so I was only grinding this occasionally). Not sure if any other grinder would be better. For the price, very happy with this grinder.
Pros:
Commercial Grade
Cons:

Good for the money
Review by Beach Bum -
Quality Value Price It's a good step-up from blade grinders. Not too noisy. I give it a shake and a tap on the counter to get some of the grounds out. For the price, a good buy. Just don't expect commercial machine results and you'll be satisfied.
Pros:
Easy To Use, Easy To Clean
Cons:
Not really turkish grind(Posted on 7/31/10)
