Brewing

Built-in grinder

Fresh grinding right before brewing matters more for taste than almost anything else. A built-in grinder saves buying a separate one.

Grind settings

More steps let you fine-tune extraction for different beans. Below about 15 steps, dialing in espresso gets hard.

Pre-infusion

Wetting the coffee puck at low pressure before full pressure evens out extraction and forgives small tamping mistakes.

Pump pressure

Espresso is brewed at about 9 bar. Higher numbers on the box are maximum pump ratings and do not make better coffee, so we do not score them.

Milk

Milk frothing

A manual steam wand gives the best microfoam for latte art but takes practice. Automatic systems are easier but less flexible.

Convenience

Water tank

A bigger tank means refilling less often. For two milk drinks a day, about 60 oz lasts several days.
