In this video, we look at the highly anticipated Luxe Cafe home espresso machine by Ninja. This is a sweet machine, that does well for espresso, what with a 53mm portafilter, non-pressurized double basket, included spring tamper, and supposed temperature and pressure monitoring. Additionally, it can do coffee brews, and cold brews. In my opinion, the most amazing thing is that it includes a 40mm conical burr grinder, that grinds by weight. There’s an integrated scale, offering consistent dosing for your espresso and coffee! Awesome. All this, in a package that beats the pricing of its competitors makes this an awesome consideration. Only problem is, the steam wand can only be used in automatic mode.

A viewer pointed out that manual milk streaming is in fact possible! Somehow I managed to read the Quick and Inspirational Guides, but I missed the Owner’s guide. 🙈
Here’s the online Version of the Owner’s Guide, which does in fact show how to engage manual steaming: https://support.ninjakitchen.com/hc/en-us/article_attachments/14670346024348
I tried it tonight, and made some great silky milk foam with it!
