This prosumer espresso machine is designed with limited counter space in mind and is built to last with a high-end build quality and tiny footprint.

The Jolie is simple to use and requires small counter space. You only need to press one button to start the machine, then again to start dispensing your chosen brew.

The machine is small enough to be able to be stowed on the floor or placed under the cabinet.

3. Breville BES870XL

The Breville Barista Express appears to be a costly espresso machine. If you're willing and able to master it, then this is a great at-home espresso maker. It's far superior to many of the more expensive models. It's a good price for the class and is especially useful for those who are new to the field and don't have an espresso maker that can cost up to $100.

The model is priced lower than the most expensive Breville Oracle (the most expensive at $2199) However, it's an excellent option for baristas on a tight budget. It comes with plenty of adjustable features, and it even comes with a built-in burr grinder that makes the whole experience much less expensive. It is also a single-boiler machine, which means it can only perform one task at one time.

Breville, a relative newcomer on the market for espresso machines, has rapidly gained a reputation as a top-quality appliances. This machine is no exception, and it offers just enough adjustability to let baristas who are aspiring burnish their abilities without spending hundreds of dollars more than they should.

There are some quirks, though. The hopper is located on the side, not at the top of the model. It's not a major problem, but it could be frustrating if you want to give several shots at a time. The rear-facing position of the tank makes it difficult to know how much liquid is left.

But if you're prepared to invest some time learning how to master the Breville Barista Express, it's an ideal, all-purpose machine for any home espresso lover. The only issue is the price, which could be a nagging issue for some buyers. For those seeking a cheaper option, check out our review of the Gaggia Classic or the La Pavoni Impresso.

Its brewing method is similar to pour-over, which most coffee enthusiasts believe makes the most delicious coffee. The water is heated up to the ideal temperature, and then evenly poured over the coffee grounds using shower heads. The coffee brewed coffee machine is then stored in the thermal, double-walled carafe, which can last up to 60 minutes. The pause-and pour feature lets you to take the carafe out while making your coffee and filling it with the right amount. The machine pauses the brewing process, and displays an red light on its LED interface until you return the carafe. Then, it resumes brewing.

In our tests in our tests, the OXO Brew 9 Cup produced an excellent pot of drip coffee, with the carafe filled in 7 minutes 41 seconds. This is a bit more than the 6 minutes the Bonavita Connoisseur or the Moccamaster calls for, but it is within the time range that experts in the field recommend for making a quality cup.

You should also grind your beans before brewing. You can select an manual grinder or an automated model, such as the Baratza Encore. It has multiple grind settings, and a hopper for whole beans.

The only downside is that the carafe as well as the water reservoir aren't dishwasher safe, which could be a hassle for certain users. The stainless steel is easily cleaned by hand, though.
