KitchenAid 5KES6503BAC Coffee Machine, Cream

The espresso machine that lets you explore

Discover the unlimited possibilities of espresso with this robust espresso machine. Create the taste you love.

Dual, smart temperature sensors

Enjoy an authentic-tasting espresso, every time. This is achieved by the two temperature sensors working together to maintain optimal temperature throughout the brew process.

Even tamping with the portafilter

The commercial quality portafilter has a flat base for level and uniform tamping. How? By having recessed spouts to create a flat base. Its 58mm diameter helps to maintain optimal heat.

Sleek and compact design

The stylish espresso machine has looks as well as performance. The sturdy metal housing makes it sustainable and its compact design means it fits nicely on your counter. Enhance your kitchen space.

1 or 2 shots? Easy dose selector

It's simple to prepare a single or double shot at the touch of a button. You can programme to your preferred shot size and enjoy a cup whenever you like.

Espresso machine for beginners or experts

Choose from two wall basket sizes. Double wall baskets help give consistent results, ideal for beginners. Or, choose single wall baskets for greater control and full-bodied shots.

Get creative with the steam wand

Your Espresso machine also contains a steam wand to deliver steam or "texture" the milk directly in the pitcher. Perfect to create rich foam or warm milk for cappucinos or lattes, or even dispense water for teas or Americanos.

Achieve the ultimate performance

It's all about getting the best taste. The latest technology is combined with the traditional espresso method to make sure you savour every cup.

Authenticity for the taste of Italy

Beautiful espresso shots are delivered with the help of dual, smart sensors which monitor the water temperature throughout the brew process. They are guided by a smart controller to keep the hot water within the optimum espresso range.

1 or 2? Select your dose

The espresso machine dose selector makes it easy to make one or two shots at the touch of a button and can be programmed to your preferred shot size. Prepare 1 or 2 shots of espresso simultaneously with the 2-spout portafilter.

Rich crema on the top

To create that full-flavoured shot, low-pressure pre-infusion extracts slowly and steadily before the high pressure extraction. This is supported by the 15-bar Italian pump to give all the pressure needed for the desired crema.

What's crema on the espresso?

The sign of a great espresso is the perfect crema. The crema is the aromatic caramel or rusty coloured froth that naturally appears on the top. How? It's formed when air bubbles combine with the oils from the grounds and should be even and not too thin or thick.
