KitchenAid Red Espresso Maker KES6551CA sku-14103312610

The KitchenAid KES6551CA is a Red semi-automatic espresso machine with a burr grinder, listed under Kitchen Appliances (sku-14103312610; UPC 883049641232). Its metal-clad construction carries a 2-year warranty; see the product warranty for details. Smart Dosing Technology prepares grinds for 1 or 2 shots at the push of a button.

The flat-base 58mm portafilter has recessed spouts so it can sit steadily for tamping, which the source says helps produce consistent flavor and crema. A multi-angle steam wand can make foam or steamed milk, and fast-heating technology brings water to brewing temperature. A "clean me" notification signals when to run a cleaning cycle.

The included items are 1 machine, a 12 oz milk pitcher, a portafilter, a tamper, single-wall and double-wall filters for 1 and 2 shots, a removable bean hopper with lid, a water filter holder, a water filter, a brush and a priming pump. The source lists the included machine as model KES6551.
