Espresso Machine
Cafe-quality espresso at home without a second mortgage. Our 15-bar pump machine features PID temperature control that holds extraction temperature within 1 degree Celsius — the difference between a balanced shot and bitter swamp water.
The commercial-grade 58mm portafilter means you can use standard baskets and tampers. Pre-infusion mode gently saturates the puck before full pressure, improving extraction uniformity. The 2-litre removable water tank and drip tray make daily maintenance painless. Includes a single and double basket, tamper, and dosing funnel.
Customer Reviews
Incredible value for a PID machine. Temperature stability is genuinely impressive at this price point. I'm pulling better shots than my local cafe. Paired it with the Border Squirrel grinder and the combo is unbeatable.
After years of pod machines I finally made the switch. Steep learning curve but with the brewing guide on the blog, I was pulling decent shots within a week. The pre-infusion makes a real difference. No regrets.
Great machine, solid build. The 58mm portafilter is a smart choice — opens up a world of accessories. Only minor complaints: the water tank is slightly fiddly to reattach, and it takes about 15 minutes to warm up properly. But for under $300, you won't do better.
