AMZCHEF EM3131
The AMZCHEF EM3131 is a semi-automatic espresso machine that heats up quickly, so you don't have to wait long to make espresso and milk-based drinks at home.
It has a 20-bar pump and PID temperature control to help maintain a consistent brewing temperature during extraction.
The machine is simple to use with its four-button control for powering the machine on and off, extracting single and double shots, and switching between brewing and steaming.
It heats up in around 30 seconds, and you can stop the extraction manually or customise the shot volume, giving you more control over how much espresso you make.
It also features a cup-warming plate to help keep your drink warmer for longer.
If you’re making milk-based drinks such as lattes and cappuccinos, you’ll have to wait for the brewing to finish before being able to use the steam wand.
This machine is an option for those who want to learn the brewing process by manually preparing the coffee grounds and having more control over how their espresso is extracted.
