Review Briel ES200APG Multi-Pro Stainless Pump Espresso with Auto Espresso Flow / Briel ES200APG:Not for the novice espresso drinker or for the Starbucks-style café latte fan, this professional espresso machine is the workhorse type found in small cafes throughout Europe. Think single-shots of thick espresso and small cups of cappuccino, as anything else is beyond the realm of this machine. Briel is Europe's largest manufacturer of pump-driven espresso machines, and its Multi-Pro series is designed to be used with fresh ground coffee or ESE coffee pods, which are small portions of ground coffee pressed between two pieces of food-compatible paper. Coffee pods are packed with the right weight, roast, and grind, so even the inexperienced barista can consistently make great espresso. This machine features Auto Espresso Flow, an adjustable electric timing control that lets you select serving size in advance. One of two filter holders brews two cups of espresso at a time. Other bright spots include the Turbo Jet frother, equipped with a steam control knob and removable cappuccino nozzle; a self-priming pump fed by filtered suction and water return tubes; a cup warmer; a removable drip tray and grid; and a coffee tamper. The removable 2. 5-liter water tank also has a water level indicator viewable from the front of the machine. One downside is that the brew head fits so tightly into the filter holder that it strictly limits the amount of coffee that can be loaded into it, which complicates the brewing process when using fresh ground coffee. [+]
-Matthew EvansEditor's note: This item may arrive with water inside from the manufacturer's pressure test. This is a normal occurrence and doesn't point to a problem with the machine. This highly polished, stainless steel espresso machine comes with the pressure gauge and superior control of espresso quality that's found only in commercial machines. For use with freshly ground coffee or the exciting and new ESE pods, this espresso machine from Briel is ideal for the at-home barista. The constant 15 bar pump pressure is substantially above the minimum requirement of 9 bars necessary for an authentic espresso, giving you a savory espresso with a perfect crema topping every time. The Briel espresso machine is equipped with patented Crema Master filters for ground coffee or pods and an AquaStop No-Drip system that prevents dripping and the need to "bleed" the machine of any remaining water. There's a filter holder and filter basket for ground coffee and a special filter holder for coffee serving pods. Two thermostats regulate the coffee cycle and steaming process for the pump with a third "safety" thermostat located on the pump in the event of continuous use. A Turbo Jet frother is combined with the Thermo Block technology (a Briel exclusive) to instantly produce plentiful dry steam for a thick milk froth for a cappuccino or latte. Other features of the Briel espresso machine are "OK" light signals that let you know when the machine is ready for brewing and frothing, push button switches, two brass filter holders (one for ground coffee and one for pods), a built.

Review Saeco Vienna Superautomatica Espresso Coffee and Cappuccino Machine / Saeco 52305:Made in Italy, this 1,250-watt machine eliminates the fuss of creating espresso and espresso drinks at home by automating the entire process. With the push of a button, the machine grinds coffee beans without burning them, tamps the ground coffee into the brew group, brews a cup of espresso, and then dumps the spent grounds into a container-all in about 30 seconds. For creating a cappuccino or latte, there's a hot water/steam wand with a milk-frothing attachment. (With this model, there's a 35-second delay from brewing to steaming, and 15 seconds from steaming to brewing. ) A button selects one or two cups, and a knob adjusts cup size up to 10 ounces. For safety, the machine shuts off if the grinder runs out of beans or the water tank is empty (control-panel lights indicate specific problems). The machine measures 15 inches high, 13 inches wide, and 13 inches deep; weighs 19 pounds; and, with a gleaming, marble-gray plastic exterior, looks great on the counter. The bean hopper holds about 12-1/2 ounces (8. 8 ounces of espresso beans are included), the removable, transparent water tank holds 57 ounces, and the grinder adjusts from fine to coarse. For cleanup, parts remove easily. [+]
