Owning the Cuisinart EM-200
The Cuisinart EM-200 Espresso Machine gives you full control over your espresso shots. Featuring 2 programmable brewing buttons, a manual brewing button, and the option to brew using ground coffee or ESE (Easy Serve Espresso) pods, this Cuisinart espresso machine is as versatile as your neighborhood barista. The stainless steel frothing wand and included frothing pitcher let you create cappuccinos, lattes, and more with ease. Programming and brewing are also made simple by blue backlit buttons on the control panel that flash when the machine is heating up, and when in programming mode. Combined with the Cuisinart EM-200’s stainless steel housing, these backlit buttons give this espresso machine an elegant, modern look. A great asset to anyone who loves to entertain, the Cuisinart EM-200 Espresso Machine has a warming plate so you can have plenty of cups ready for brewing. Its large 64 oz water reservoir lets you make almost 34 shots before having to refill, and it’s removable for easy filling and cleaning. The drip tray is also removable, making it easy to dump and rinse at the end of the day.
The EM-200 has a control panel designed for straightforward operation, so making your morning espresso is never a complicated process. The control panel features 6 metallic, backlit buttons, and from left to right they are labeled: power, manual brewing, 1-cup, 2-cup, programming, and steam. While the machine is heating to brewing temperature, the brewing buttons will flash. And, while the machine is heating to steaming temperature, the steaming button will flash. This ensures you can always enjoy your espresso at its ideal temperature and flavor. When you find just the right size for your espresso shot, you want to get the same, consistent results every time you brew. That’s why the Cuisinart EM-200 Espresso Machine has 2 programmable brewing buttons that let you set the liquid volume of your shots. The 1-cup and 2-cup buttons come pre-programmed for 1.5 and 3 oz respectively, but can be easily changed. Simply press the programming button and then the brewing button you want to program to start the flow of espresso. The brewing button will flash, and when your desired liquid volume has been reached, just press the button again to stop dispensing. The machine will then beep to let you know your settings have been saved.
