CASABREWS 20-Bar Espresso Machine with Hot Water Function

I love this machine! It’s a beginner friendly machine, I’ve never owned an espresso machine before and everything was very simple to understand!

Excellent quality for the price. Easy to use and maintain. Highly recommended

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The machine works amazingly and has really good and self-explanatory buttons it’s not as complicated if you read the manual. This sleek stainless steel design is appealing and even I have gotten compliments. I use it from my local pop-up coffee shop and it works wonders. Great machine can handle the heat when it comes to making a lot of espresso

I love it! It’s been easy to learn on and makes a great cappuccino. My only (slight) issues have been the milk burning onto the steamer wand no matter how quickly I wipe it off, and the portafilter is tricky to lock in. I specifically bought this one because it comes with everything you need which is a huge plus.

Yes, what you pay for this machine absolutely matters, because its innate capabilities far exceed what you could pay for a good quality expresso machine and this is a good quality machine. Previous to this, I have owned automated machines from well known brands like Gaggia and Saeco (which are both owned by Philips, which also has its own line of expresso machines), which work fine until they break down after a few years of use and require large deposits just to have them reviewed by repair shops. This time around, I opted for a simpler setup (that also brews Americano) and searched for a budget friendly, semi-automatic expresso machine, partnered with a good, but separate conical burr coffee grinder. The Casabrews 4700Gense far exceeds expectations. in terms of both quality brewing and stylishness. It is compact, powerful, very easy to use and brews great coffee (both Americano and shots). Frothing takes some getting used to, but mostly this is due to its power. Good coffee beans (organic or otherwise), along with a good conical burr grinder will make a huge difference in terms of both quality of taste and crema, when using this machine. A flat burr grinder will produce a more irregular grind and worse tasting results, regardless of the beans you use. Last, a fresh grind (upon demand) definitively matters, so keep this in mind when using pre-grounded coffee beans.. The only question that remains is durability and I will let you know in a few years...hopefully. Beyond that and if you enjoy great coffee, then you will be very happy with the Casabrews 4700Gense.
