Overview
Not a bean-to-cup automatic, this XIXUBX is a semi-automatic espresso maker where you dose and tamp ground coffee, then press one button for a single or double shot. A pump with gentle pre-infusion and a PID controller manage pressure and temperature, and a steam wand froths milk.
Stable brew temperature and a soft pre-infusion help a beginner pull repeatable shots, and the box includes the tamper and pitcher needed to start. No grinder comes with it and control is one button, so dialing in falls to your grind and tamp.
Who it's for
Home baristas starting out in an apartment, dorm or office get pressure, temperature control and a frothing pitcher in a small footprint. People who want coffee from whole beans with zero prep should look at a machine with a built-in grinder.
Pros and cons
- PID holds brew temperature steady
- Pre-infusion soaks grounds evenly
- Single and double shot from one button
- Steam wand makes microfoam
- No built-in grinder
- One button gives little shot control
- Results depend on grind and tamp skill
- Mostly plastic housing
Performance notes
Shot quality is governed by grind size and tamp, since pressure and pre-infusion are fixed and only extract evenly through an evenly packed puck. The PID controller holds water temperature steady, which avoids the sour or burnt swings of a simple thermostat. Milk texture depends on the steam wand and the included pitcher.
