CASABREWS Ultra Espresso Machine with LCD Display, Powerful Milk Frother and Customizable Brewing Temperature, Provides Barista-Level Lattes and Cappuccinos

This is the one
As a former barista, cafe manager and late art trainer of about 12 years, I missed being able to make a cortado for myself at a whim. After careful consideration and a bit of hesitation, im glad I went ahead and went for the Ultra. I’m very impressed with this lil spro mac. It’s no Strada, but it does its job very well, especially considering the price point. I honestly don’t think you could possibly get a better bang for your buck. I love how my whole house smells like a specialty coffee shop every morning. Im happy to spoil my husband with iced mochas without the exorbitant cafe prices. This comes with lots of great accessories, but I would suggest upgrading the plastic tamper it comes with. The only gripe I can think of is that this model cannot steam milk and pull shots at the same time. I’m not making a 100+ drinks a day for under-caffinated masses anymore so it’s a small compromise for the amazing value. This machine looks great, doesnt take up much counter space and is relatively quiet. Whether you’re a newbie who is eager to learn, or an old head this machine is awesome.

if you are looking for a very good start up espresso machine, thats the one !!
I am not a big coffee espresso lover to start with, but I needed to add some variability to my routine of indian tea, and hot dark chocolate drinks, so I wanted to try to make some espresso drinksafter review of the available machines, as I didnt want to spend quite a bit on a machine which I might use once/ week, I decided to go with the machineit was a quick buy and delivery was prompt.luckily I didnt have any surprises with missing pieces or malfunctioning pieces. I was able to set the machine up, and after watching few videos on its various functions, I was able to make my first macchiato cup of coffee , following the instructions.I also used the steamer, which was tricky for someone who didnt use any machine like this before, but finally I was able to steam the milk just exactly like how it is done in the cafes with the foam which not only filled the cup of coffee but part of my kitchen counter ! 🙂 I was glad I was able to get the milk to be steamed and frothy much like what we buy from the cafe, which is neat !I have been using the machine for over 2 months now, and I am able to make the drinks that I wanted , without having to drive to get in line to ask for the same drink in cafes..which is a huge plus for me !!I do believe the machine is very good to excellent, and it was the first machine I have tried to make such drinks, but I would say I am pleased with my purchase.the machine size is right, and so is the weight, and able to handle quite bit of volume of water to make several cups pf coffee, and I am satisfied with the purchase

Great machine
This machine is great for beginners. The steam function is a little tricky to figure out in real time but still works great. Espresso pulls nicely

Great starter espresso machine
This espresso machine works great with simple buttons. Looks great in stainless steel, perfect daily use for 2 people at home. The frother works well too for this size espresso machine.
