Automatic coffee machines grind the beans freshly each time and make the espresso all at the press of a button. But despite their relatively high prices, not all coffee machines make a great espresso – and our testing shows that the best machines are not always the most expensive models.

Our experts put coffee machines through their paces in a lab setting to find the ones that:

  • perform best in a blind taste test
  • are the easiest to use and clean
  • are best for milk frothing and temperature consistency, cup after cup.

We’ve also partnered with Shop Ethical on this update to show the rating the Ethical Consumer Group gives to each company.

This review covers automatic espresso machines only, as opposed to capsule machines or manual/semi-automatic coffee machines. To see how those machines perform, look at our home espresso coffee machine reviews.
