Espressotoria Barista 2.0 Espresso Coffee Pod Machine Black/Red

The Espressotoria Barista 2.0 Espresso Coffee Machine really is amazing! It definitely is better than Keruigs. It's so easy to use, it's beautiful, compact (takes less space than my Keruig). It is pretty loud as it is brewing, but I don't mind because it's so delicious! I just love it! It comes with great recipes, I will try them all! The directions are easy to follow, very hot and stays hot for a long time. I love the container that the capsules fall down into after you lift the opening after it's done brewing, it holds 16 capsules which is very nice. There's a cleaning mode too and that's a big plus for me because other single serving coffee machines don't have that feature. I HIGHLY recommend! You will not be disappointed! It's taken the place of my Keruig, I haven't even used it since I received this!

This is a very impressive little barista espresso machine. It's very easy to setup and use. The pods are a small size that fits into the top of the machine. I love that you can insert a pod, open the top, and then the pod dispenses into a try within the machine for easy discarding later. The tray that it falls into is large enough to hold several used pods. This machine has a water only option, small espresso option, large espresso option, and an americano option (water and coffee). There is a socket in the side of the machine that can be used to connect the frother that can be purchased with this machine. That's very impressive. The frother has its on charging dock, but you can save an outlet and just use the espresso machine. There are two levels for the cup height. There's a small stilt that comes with the machine for smaller espresso cups that can be easily removed for using a regular sized coffee cup. This machine has a very sleek design. It goes into energy saving mode after about 5 minutes of no use. The barista also came with a recipe card for trying different types of espresso from lattes to americanos and others. So far, I am very impressed with this little beauty. I would definitely recommend this to those who enjoy espresso, regular coffee, or just like a hot cup of water for some tea.

Espressotoria Barista 2.0 Espresso Coffee Pod Machine is a very good coffee machine. I must admit that I wasn't a fan of the design at first. I thought it was a tad outdated (kind of looks like it was designed in the 90s) but after I started using it I started to like it. I have it in red and it looks nice. One of things I really like was how versatile it is. You can use it as both an expresso machine and a kettle. I really like this because both my wife and I can use it (she loves to drink tea and I can't live without my expressos in the morning). It is also easy to use. I had previously owned a Nexpresso and sometimes it would stay stuck and I would have to plug and unplug it various times. I have used the Espressotoria Barista 2.0 and till this day I haven't had any issue where I had to unplug it, so it reboots itself. I have to say that the quality of the machine and the coffee is very good. I recommend this product to whoever would like to get an easy to use, functional a pretty machine.

One of my favorite things about this espresso machine is the detachable garbage tray for the capsules! You can simply insert calsule to make your coffee and the next time you lift the operating lever the capsule will automatically fall into the garbage tray! If you are a beginner like I was, be sure to give yourself time to read the directions. Save yourself time by looking in the directions for the parts that mention the buttons. To make an americano based on the included recipe, use the button on the upper left. Once the water begins flowing into the cup, insert a capsule. The water will continue to flow, then the machine will automatically start extracting 30mL from the capsule. When that's done, open the lever and insert another capsule. Press the button on the lower right side to extract another 30mL.

I love the slim design of this espresso capsule machine . The compact design don't take up to much counter space. A very well made machine, all the parts are in wonderful working condition. Easy to use just fill it up with water into a removable water tank in the back , put the tiny espresso coffee capsules in the top push a button and in a few minute you have a wonderful tasting cup of espresso. I made a great tasting Latte dark roast came out great.

This thing is awesome. It is compact compared to others I have seen The pods go in at top and then goes into this holder when done. Holder can hold 16 of them. It comes with some recipes as well like iced latte,cappuccino,expresso,latte,flat white,americano,Affogato and gotta do. It has a 3 min cleaning mode which is really cool. If you get the milk fritter with this you don't have to hook it up to the machine. You can program it as well and not hard to do. I have tried the latte,espresso and the morning Brazilian. All are good. This a great machine and I would recommend this product to anyone anyone. The pods aren't as much as I thought they would be. About $8 for 12 pods.

The Espressotoria Barista 2.0 Espresso Coffee Pod Machine is an absolute must for a true coffee lover.  The machine is very powerful, but does not take up a lot of cabinet space due to its compact size.  The high gloss  beautiful red color of the machine makes it stand out as a statement piece in my kitchen area, it is absolutely beautiful and any picture that you see does not do this beauty any justice.   When I started the machine to do the priming run as indicated in the quick start instructions, it was a little louder than I expected, but after running a few water loads through, it started to purr like a kitten.( This may have been due to the 19 bar pump and pressure system that it operates on. )The quick start instructions included in the box were easy to read and follow, plus there  is also a full booklet on operating instructions different types of easy to follow recipes are included in the box.(this machine just does so much and is so versatile,you will feel like a true barista in no time) The Espressotoria 2.0 warms plain tap water to the perfect temperature very quickly and even has a hot water only button, so this machine is also great if you are doing a hot cereal or a tea bag type tea. The Espressotria has its own line of pods specifically designed for the machine, which when compared to the cost of name brand coffee shop espressos this system and the flavor that the pods yield is a smart investment hands down. The water reservoir seals tightly and slides on and off with ease. The drip tray is removable for a larger mug, but due to its compact size, I think the largest size cup that will fit is about a 14 oz. ( my photo shows a 12 oz.) another plus is that you don't have to remove the pod each time you brew -it falls into a removable reservoir that looks like it can hold about 15-20 pods. ( which the pod box recommends to recycle and use the grounds for compost +++). All in all this is a beautiful machine that is very versatile and exceeds expectations on performance and function,a true investment that will pay for itself quickly. Note- this machine also has a milk frother that is sold separately that can be connected to the machine via the intergrated dock that already exists on the machine.

Boy was I excited to receive this Espressotoria Barista 2.0. This Espresso Coffee Pod Machine is a great conversation piece for parties, Coffee Bar. I've been drinking more and more coffee lately. With the Espressotoria Barista 2.0 premium espresso coffee pod machine I feel like a real barista. Anything to make life simpler especially when you have children. Energy-saver mode; cleaning mode too, A plus! I also have the accompanying frother, love the possibilities. I like my keurig but this adds some extra pizazz to classical coffee recipes. Recommended.

Garbage Machine, mine is one you would consider new still in the box and everything. I cleaned it packed it up moved, unpacked it set it back up and its dead doesn't work, doesnt pump water, it just hums, its like the motor stopped working. I contact customer service they said since I don't have a receipt anymore they won't honor the warranty. On top of that, they don't even carry the pods anymore. you have to order them online if you can find them. Waste of $100
