  • THIS ROBOT IS COMPLETELY MANUAL!

    Handmade, assembled and tested in Hong Kong, the Cafelat Robot is the plastic-free manual espresso maker that's fun to use as it looks.

    Make real espresso with the Robot. This small, high-quality, manual coffee maker is assembled from only has a handful of parts, has no complicated electronics and is built from only premium materials like stainless steel. Add fresh ground coffee, boiling water from a kettle, a little practice and you can add great home espresso to your coffee skill set. The whole process is simple and only takes a few minutes.

    Though it may look like one, this isn't a toy from a bygone era. The Robot is a tool for home baristas and is capable of pulling espresso shots like a professional machine costing much more. Capable of producing 9 bar pressure, but preferring 6-7 bar, this machine is built to withstand the work demanded of it, like all good robots should be. The lever arms and internal piston force the hot water through the coffee creating the thick, syrupy, delicious espresso, for the perfect start to the day, mid-day boost or after dinner digestif.

Great

I've had about a month to get a feel for this great little manual espresso machine. There's a learning curve, but that's half the fun.

Love my Cafelat Robot

I've had about a month to get a feel for this great little manual espresso machine. There's a learning curve, but that's half the fun. I've had to play around with the grind quite a bit on my Orphan Espresso hand grinder. Also, it takes some time to get a feel for the pre-infusion and how to generate the right pressure to achieve 6 or 7 bars; which in other words gives you a lot of flexibility. I've produces some great shots with freshly roasted beans. Best purchase I've made in a long time.

Great supplier of the Cafelat Robot!

Really amazing communication and an amazing store. A good place to buy the Robot from. The Robot is such a neat and powerful machine. It takes up little counterspace, does not require a plug, and produces some extremely rich espresso. A really great purchase. And I highly recommend!

Excellent build quality and great espresso

I upgraded from my Breville Cafe Roma to the Cafelat Robot standard. The espresso made from this machine is noticeably richer and sweeter than the breville after dialing in my grind setting; I use a Kingrinder K3. I also think the workflow is actually easier and more efficient on the robot (I don't have to wait for the machine to warm up/ temperature surfing, etc) I love the retro look and the building quality is top notch. Overall, I enjoy using this machine daily and I'm very satisfied with this purchase.
