The Icona Pump Espresso Machine evokes the Italian spirit of la dolce vita, enhancing the design of any modern kitchen with a touch of style. The Icona Collection, which also includes the Icona Electric Kettle and the Icona 2 Slice Toaster, is inspired by the bold, striking lines of 1950s Italian design; a time when Italy was just beginning to dictate the rules of fashion and style to the world.

15-Bar Pressure Pump System
As opposed to steam-powered extraction systems that push water through coffee grounds using only two to three bars of pressure, the Icona Pump Espresso Machine uses 15 bars of pressure. The high-pressure pump creates the foamy crema that gives espresso its rich flavor.
Multifunctional Filter Holder and Convenient Built-In Coffee Tamper
The filter holder is compatible with ground coffee as well as Easy Serving Espresso (ESE) pods. Offered by some of the world’s leading coffee roasters, including Illy and Starbucks, ESE pods are pre-portioned, so they take the guesswork out of preparation and are easier to clean up than ground coffee. Rails on the sides of the cup warming plate protect cups from accidentally falling off. The coffee tamper is built in, so you have one less piece of equipment cluttering your preparation space. Refill the 48-ounce water reservoir by lifting it out of the machine using its specially designed handle.
Intuitive Control Panel
This espresso pump’s face includes three indicator buttons with corresponding lights to show whether the unit is on or off, the temperature of the coffee or hot water, and the pressure of the steam. The knob on top of the machine regulates the volume of steam released through the Cappuccino System steam wand.
Need to push the button to heat the water and then, when the light green is on, push the button to operate the pump in order to release water. If the button for the heating element to warm the water is not pushed will result in delivery of cold water.
Cappuccino System pushes steam and air through milk to create foam.

This is the best I have used at home to date. Have purchased a few espresso makers from amazon, but they all broke just after warranty and were never. Have always tried to stay under $200, which could be the reason. This one is the best I have had to date.
Great Espresso at a great price I’ve had several espresso machines over the years. Some were expensive and a few, like this one, were inexpensive. This machine makes better espresso than the more expensive machines I’ve owned.
DO NOT BUY unless you are willing to risk potential issues! When I received this espresso maker it leaked water from the frother making a mess on the counter. Contacted seller and returned at my expense($32). Two months later I received my “replacement” that was “tested to not leak.” Actually, it was the same unit I sent in(made an identifying mark before returning) and guess what…still leaking. So after 2 months and $32 I’m right where I started. Not going to throw good money after bad and will be buying a different machine from…
