Product Description
Capable of producing one or two cups of creamy espresso at a time from either
ground coffee or coffee pods, this machine has an electronically controlled,
18-bar pump and 1,200 watts of power to ensure topnotch performance. For
creating cappuccinos and café lattés, the machine is equipped with Capresso's
FrothXpress system, which steams milk and makes froth directly from a cold-milk
container without the need of a frothing pitcher. (A plastic, 32-ounce, covered
container, which can be stored in the refrigerator, is included.) To reduce
calcification, Capresso's stainless-steel ThermoBlock system prevents water from
contacting aluminum inside the machine.
Features include a self-locking filter holder for easy operation; separate
one-cup, two-cup, and coffee-pod filters; a 40-ounce removable water container;
and a control setting to quickly produce hot water for tea and hot chocolate or
for converting an espresso into a café Americano. Made in Switzerland, the
machine looks great on the counter--a striking Art Nouveau design in rugged
plastic, with a chrome-colored head and black body. It measures 10-1/2 inches
wide, 13 inches high, and 10 inches deep, weighs 9 pounds, and carries a
one-year warranty against defects. --Fred Brack
Product Description
The majority of coffee experts consider brewing coffee fast and under high
pressure the ideal process to extract the maximum flavor and aroma. The high
pressure and short brewing time prevent the extraction of bitter oils and
release less caffeine than other brewing methods. The Capresso EspressoPRO does
just that and is the only pump espresso machine that comes with a stainless
steel-lined ThermoBlock, a heating system that prevents water from coming into
contact with aluminum at any point during the brewing process so the taste is
clean and crisp. A unique frothXpress attachment comes with its own 32-oz. cold
milk container that automatically produces unlimited amounts of frothed milk
directly into your cappuccino cups with no downtime after frothing. As you
froth, you can control the milk temperature with the turn of a knob. Two regular
sieves and one pod sieve are included for use with ground coffee or pre-packed
coffee pods; an 18-bar power pump offers authentic crema espresso every time.
Other highlights include a 40-oz. removable water container and a separate
high-speed hot water setting so you can prepare a cup of hot tea in just 30
seconds. The striking, art-nouveau design with chrome finish lends smart looks
to your kitchen or beverage area.
