Empstorm Espresso Machine 20 Bar with Steam Milk Frother, Stainless Steel, LED Display, Includes 2 Pack Shot Glasses & Measuring Cup

Product Overview

At the heart of the Empstorm is a 58mm high-density brew head that ensures even water distribution across the coffee puck for balanced extraction. The 20-bar pump operates at higher pressure than many entry-level machines, which can yield richer crema and more concentrated flavor. The steam wand rotates 360°, giving you freedom to position your milk pitcher comfortably. It produces low-moisture steam for dry, velvety texture—ideal for latte art. The machine’s stainless steel housing resists fingerprints and cleans easily. An LED display shows operating status, simplifying use. Included are two 2oz espresso shot glasses made from thickened glass (3mm walls, 127g each) with permanently etched measurement markings that withstand dishwashers. While the shot glasses are a nice bonus, the machine itself is the main attraction. It lacks a dual boiler, so expect a brief wait between brewing and steaming. Overall, this package provides everything needed to start crafting espresso drinks at home.

Build & Materials

The Empstorm Espresso Machine features a brushed stainless steel exterior that combines durability with a sleek appearance. The 58mm brew head is made of high-grade metal for consistent heat retention. The steam wand is constructed from stainless steel and swivels smoothly. The included shot glasses are crafted from thickened glass with a 3mm wall thickness, making them resistant to breakage. Their fired-on measurement markings are designed to endure repeated dishwasher cleaning without fading.

The machine's internal components include a 20-bar vibration pump and a 1350W thermoblock heating system. The water tank is detachable for easy filling and cleaning. Overall, the build quality feels solid for its price range, though the reliance on plastic parts for the tank and drip tray is typical for this category.
