Yabano's compact steam espresso maker suits beginners who want lattes and cappuccinos at home without technique. It is a steam machine, not a pump espresso maker, so crema and pressure are limited.

Overview
Yabano builds this machine as a small steam espresso maker that brews up to four cups at once, with a built-in steam wand for milk foam. The portafilter, nozzle and drip tray lift out, and the compact body tucks beside a toaster.
Easy operation and a steam wand let a beginner make milk drinks with little practice. Steam brewing does not reach the pressure of pump machines, so shots are lighter.
Who it's for
Small kitchens and new coffee drinkers get espresso-style drinks and foamed milk in a compact box. Enthusiasts who dial in shots should choose a pump espresso machine.
Pros and cons
- Very simple to use
- Steam wand for foam
- Brews several cups at once
- Compact and light
- Steam brewing, not pump pressure
- Listed dimensions conflict
- Needs medium-coarse grounds
Performance notes
Steam pressure pushes hot water through the grounds, which gives a strong coffee but less crema than pump espresso. The listing calls for medium-coarse grounds, since fine espresso grinds can clog a steam system. The wand heats and foams milk from the same boiler.
