The Espresso Collection comprises three [fully automatic espresso machines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rivelia-fully-automatic-espresso-machine) and one [semi-automatic machine](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/javapresso-espresso-machine), offering versatility and choice to suit varying preferences and brewing styles. The easy-to-use touch screen allows you to select and customize your beverages according to your desired strength, size, and milk preferences. Unlike traditional semi-automatic models, the Espresso Collection's fully automatic machines handle milk heating and frothing automatically without the need for external accessories. The machines also boast practical design elements, such as a removable bean hopper, which makes it convenient to swap or refill coffee beans as needed. Additionally, the KF8 model offers a unique plant-based milk mode, allowing you to enjoy almond, oat, or soy milk variations in your coffee creations. A full list of features can be found on the KitchenAid website.
