The new simple way of making Espresso / Cappuccino: Capresso "Ultima" Pump Espresso Machine eliminates all the inconvenient steps of conventional espresso machines: no more complications with tamping, hot filter holders, or cleaning and rinsing of sieves. Just fill coffee to your liking (7 to 15 grams) into the pump espresso machine, turn and pull the coffee lever down, and switch on the pump.

The Capresso Ultima does it by itself, all the time. Just fill your ground espresso coffee in the espresso machine, and turn and close the lever. When you turn on the pump, the brewing chamber automatically seals itself so that all the water is forced through the coffee, resulting in wonderful, thick crema espresso with a wonderful aroma. Frequently Asked Questions: Q: There are machines out there with pre-packed espresso pods and capsules. Isnt this even more convenient? A: Pre-packed coffee is definitely very convenient. However, the cost of the pre-packed coffee is often two to three times higher than ground coffee. So, if you make 4 drinks a day, you spend anywhere from $250 to $350 more per year just on coffee. Pre-packed coffee portions might not be available in your preferred roast or flavor. Also, with the Capresso "Ultima," you can adjust the amount of coffee to the strengths you want. Q: Can I make a regular cup of coffee? A: Yes, we call it "Crema Coffee." Just put a large cup underneath the double pouring spout, fill one to two scoops of your preferred coffee into the brewing chamber and brew approx. 8 oz. of coffee. Pressured brewed coffee tastes completely different from drip coffee. The main reasons are that the brewing time is much shorter and flavor and aroma are extracted under pressure. Testimonials: "I am so pleased with my recent purchase that I wanted to write a note to tell you so! My wife and I owned and operated an espresso shop for 5 years and have been on a search for a home-style espresso maker for three years. We have been disappointed generally, with the espresso machines available. A week a go we purchased a Capresso Ultima Model 121 and are VERY PLEASED with the coffee it produced! Bravo... and kudos to your company!!!" J.M., CA "I purchased the Capresso Ultima Espresso Machine at Macys in 1999, and along with it the Capresso Burr Grinder model 551. I use these products EVERY DAY. The Capresso Ultima performs remarkably for a non commercial machine. It is convenient and easy to use. It makes beautiful crema. Much better than our last Gaggia. The coffee grinder has been working beautifully too. I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for such remarkable design and function."
