Deals on Espresso Machines
We’ll start with the strong stuff. If espresso, lattes, or cappuccinos are what you’re after, these are the best we’ve tested.
A Sophisticated Bean-to-Cup Option

Italian coffee titan De’Longhi has created something close to automated perfection here. The Rivelia is the best automatic latte and cappuccino maker we’ve tested. And we do mean automatic. It will grind, brew, froth up milk, and deliver as many as 18 different variations on espresso, latte, cappuccino, and iced-coffee drinks. Our main gripe is that all that can be overwhelming, but then, that’s kind of a good problem to have.
The Beginner-Friendly Semiautomatic

Ninja’s Luxe Café semiautomated espresso machine (7/10, WIRED Review) made the quad shot I’m drinking right now. It’s not quite a coffee shop-level pull (nothing home-brewed ever is), but it’s close enough. It also makes a good cup of drip coffee and cold brew as well. If you want want a machine that can do it all, and do it well, this is a good choice. It’s also very beginner-friendly; you don’t have to be a barista to get good results.
Other Great Espresso Machines on Sale
GE
Cafe Affetto Automatic Espresso Machine
With a built-in steaming wand and good pressure for full extraction, this slim little machine is perfect for tight kitchens. It’s fully automated: fill the water tank, drop beans in the hopper, and you’re good to go.
De’Longhi
Linea Classic
This is our favorite $200 espresso maker, a price point where it’s tough to find a reliable machine. This is true especially among machines with a pressure gauge and a fast-heating thermopump. Trade-offs are that the steam wand is a little foamy, and the portafilter is lightweight.

Moccamaster
KBGV Select Coffee Maker
A stalwart from our “buy-it-for-life” guide, the Moccamaster is crafted from metal, steel, and copper and is designed to last a lifetime. The warranty goes five years, and the machine is fully repairable even after that’s over. The appeal, beyond longevity, lies in its precision. The Moccamaster can hold brewing temperatures within a variance of 4 degrees Celsius and extract coffee within very tight parameters. This will make you great cups of coffee, probably for longer than you’ll be around to drink them.
A Do-It-All Coffee Maker
Mr. Coffee
One-Touch CoffeeHouse
WIRED’s previous top pick for best automatic latte machine is a great value even on a bad day. Luckily, Prime Day is a good day. This is smooth espresso, not nuanced or intense or award-winning espresso. But you won’t find an espresso machine with button-push latte and cappuccino milk frothing at a lower price than this—or many machines that are this easy to use.
For Keeping It Simple

Espro’s P7 uses double mesh strainers that lock together and uses two seals on top of that. There’s no sediment to be found here, just a nice, bold cup of coffee. The spout could be bigger, but so long as you pour slowly, it’s not a big deal.
Even Simpler

AeroPress
Coffee Maker, Original
WIRED wrote about the AeroPress’ inventor a decade ago, and we love the device because of its unique design, which uses a plastic tube to create pressure that’s not quite espresso but closer than coffee. A cup from this device, which is priced 20% below normal, is thick and robust without bitterness.
Still Simple, But Bigger
Photograph: AeroPress
For many years, there was only one AeroPress, and this was good. The Aeropress is like a fat syringe that brews amazing coffee, split somewhere between aromatic drip and powerful espresso. But in the past 10 years, the AeroPress has multiplied. This is also good. And this bigger “XL” is now the best-selling variant on Amazon: Turns out people just wanted more AeroPress at a time. Anyway, this is a great deal on an AeroPress fatty.

Clara
Fellow’s products rarely disappoint. The Clara has the company’s trademark minimalist modern design, with a BPA-free plastic exterior and a matte black finish. It’s also vacuum-insulated.
Breville
Precision Brewer Thermal
It’s been a minute since good ol’ Joe Ray reviewed this upscale drip machine from Breville, but he gave it a 7/10. This is normally a lot of money to pay for a drip machine that is now the Fellow Aiden, but Prime Day brings the price down $130 to $200. It offers more control than most drip machines so you can optimize for your beans and taste.
Coffee Pod Machines and Coffee Concentrates
Coffee! Coffee now! For those with no patience for the art hassle of brewing fancy coffee, we have pod machines, which eliminate the guesswork and deliver the caffeine right freaking now. If even that is too slow, try a concentrate.
A Pod Maker That Looks Great

The Bruvi BV-01 is our favorite pod coffee maker. It’s not too big, and looks nice on your kitchen counter. The proprietary B-Pods are unfortunately only sold online as of now, but they come in coffee, tea, and espresso varieties, and they’re meant to biodegrade in a landfill.
The Minimalist’s Pick

The OG coffee pod brewer, the K-Mini does a solid job at what it’s meant to do: brewing exactly one cup of coffee. It’s not the best coffee you’ve ever had, but it’s also not the worst. It gets the job done, and in our testing these machines will last a surprisingly long time.

Nespresso
Vertuo Pop+ Brewer and Aeroccino 3 Frother Bundle
This adorable little pod coffee maker is the best for espresso. By “espresso” I mean “an espresso-like beverage,” but it’s still solid for folks who like handcrafted lattes or straight shots with no chaser. The pods are recyclable, and there are lots of flavor options if that’s your thing. I also love the silent, efficient milk frother—you’ll make lattes with the press of just a few buttons. If you’re spending $8 per day on coffee, get this instead. —Louryn Strampe

Keurig
Brewer Maintenance Kit
I’m a fan of pod coffee makers, but they all share the same potentially fatal flaw, which is that hard water and mineral deposits can build up over time. These alter the taste of your coffee and can even cause your machine to break down. This kit comes with descaling solution, new water filters, and rinse pods to help clean things up (and make sure they taste as good as possible). —Louryn Strampe
For Lightning-Quick Caffeine
Javvy (formerly “Javy”) comes in a wide range of flavors and isn’t overly sweet. You only need a teaspoon or two for a full 8-ounce cup, and the original flavor is smooth enough that you can almost forget you’re drinking a concentrate, with no bitter or funny aftertaste.
Maximum Buzz
If it’s caffeine you’re after, this is the juice you want. It packs 150 milligrams of caffeine into a single tablespoon-size serving. Somehow it manages to not taste too acidic or bitter, either, which is an achievement.
Starbucks
Espresso And Cream (12 Pack)
I love coffee, and under normal circumstances, I would never go four days without brewing a cup in either an AeroPress or a Chemex. However, Amazon Prime Day is not a normal time. These cans are normally $20 for 12, but right now they’re down to $14, or just about a buck a can. I have ordered two flats for Prime Day. —Martin Cizmar
