Cafelat Barista Robot Espresso Maker: Green

The Cafelat Robot Espresso Maker is a high-quality manual coffee maker designed to deliver exceptional espresso with minimal effort. Featuring a robust, plastic-free construction, it uses only stainless steel, food-grade silicone, and die-cast aluminium for superior durability and sustainability. Whether you're an espresso enthusiast or a casual coffee drinker, the Robot offers a timeless design and professional-grade results.

The Problem

For those seeking a sustainable and user-friendly way to brew espresso, finding the right balance between simplicity and quality can be challenging.

The Solution

The Cafelat Robot Espresso Maker solves these issues with a simple yet highly effective design:

• Plastic-Free Build: All coffee-contact parts are made of stainless steel and food-grade silicone, ensuring a pure coffee experience.
• Manual Operation: No electronics or boiler—just add hot water and ground coffee to brew delicious espresso.
• Durable Construction: Crafted with die-cast aluminium and powder-coated for a long-lasting, elegant finish.
• Professional Results: Includes a 58mm filter basket identical in size and quality to those used in commercial espresso machines.

How It Works

The Cafelat Robot's straightforward process ensures ease of use while maintaining exceptional quality:

• Step 1: Place the basket (Professional or Pressurised) into the portafilter. If using a Pressurised Basket, attach the spouted portafilter.
• Step 2: Add 12g–20g of ground coffee to the basket and tamp evenly using the provided stainless steel tamper.
• Step 3: Firmly press the filter screen onto the tamped coffee to ensure a flat surface.
• Step 4: Pour hot water (just off the boil) into the basket, filling it to 5–8mm below the rim.
• Step 5: Insert the portafilter (with basket) into the Robot and lower the lever arms for pre-infusion at 1–2 bar for 5 seconds.
• Step 6: Gradually press the lever arms to achieve an extraction pressure of 5–8 bar, producing rich, flavorful espresso.

Professional Basket vs. Pressurised Basket

The Cafelat Robot comes with options for two types of baskets:

Professional Basket

• Designed For: Advanced users and coffee enthusiasts using freshly ground beans.
• Features: Multiple precision holes for even extraction, paired with the naked (bottomless) portafilter for optimal results.
• Best For: Those seeking full control over grind size, tamping pressure, and extraction time.

Pressurised Basket

• Designed For: Beginners or casual coffee drinkers using pre-ground coffee.
• Features: A single hole for controlled backpressure, mimicking professional espresso results without requiring precise grind size.
• Best For: Simplified brewing with consistently good results using pre-ground coffee.

Barista Version vs. Regular Version

While both versions of the Cafelat Robot deliver outstanding espresso, there are key differences to consider:

• Regular Robot: Ideal for home users seeking simplicity and durability.
• Barista Robot: Features a built-in pressure gauge for real-time control over pre-infusion, flow, and pressure. Recommended for experienced users or those looking for advanced customisation options.
