Whip up custom coffee specialty drinks in your own kitchen, with just the right amount of foam on your double tall latte, with this sturdy Italian-made espresso machine. It has an all-steel construction under heavy chrome plating, making it as sturdy and shiny as the bumpers of a ‘55 Buick. The machine is 12 by 7 inches in size (with the handle lowered) and comes with a tamper, screen, screen holder, measuring ladle, and cappuccino attachment, as well as complete operating instructions and a ten-minute video. The machine’s sleek, retro look sports shiny surfaces, a thick base with curved edges, and a pull-down coffee compressor. It’s attractive enough to leave out on the counter (and really too heavy to move around frequently), and once you get used to inexpensive lattes at home, you’ll want it handy for everyday use. –Marcie BovetzEditor’s note: This item may arrive with water inside from the manufacturer’s pressure test. This is a normal occurrence and doesn’t point to a problem with the machine.

Whip up an easy after-dinner cappuccino for guests with this steam-free frother with stand from Aerolatte. The frother foams skim, whole, and soy milk alike for fluffy hot café lattes or cold chocolate malts in seconds. (Frothing water-based powdered milk is not recommended.) The frother features a sleek chrome body with a slender 18/8 stainless-steel whisk, designed for optimum foaming efficiency, and is compact for easy travel. Two installed AA batteries power the whisk as it froths milk up to 60 degrees C. For best results, turn on the frother with whisk placed near the base of the mug and slowly raise and lower the unit as foam develops. Foam forms in only 15 to 20 seconds. To avoid splatters, turn the frother off before removing from the beverage. The included chrome stand holds the frother secure while protecting the whisk wand with a sturdy, circular base and two sets of arms that fit snug around the frother body. To clean the frother, run the whisk in hot soapy water and rinse. Wipe the body with a damp cloth. Do not immerse the frother in water or place in the dishwasher. Aerolatte offers a five-year guarantee against defective parts or craftsmanship for this product. The frother measures 8-3/

When the aroma of freshly brewed coffee–from freshly ground beans–wafts into your bedroom in the morning, you won’t need your alarm clock. Preset this coffeemaker for your desired wake-up time, add coffee beans to the grinder, and in the morning the beans are ground to a medium grind and hot coffee awaits in the 10-cup stainless steel, double-wall insulated thermal carafe. You can also program the machine to start brewing at the end of a dinner party to avoid having to get up from the table, or to have hot coffee waiting after a brisk winter walk. When making fewer than five cups of coffee, use the 1-to-4-cups setting to improve extraction and heat; coffeemakers without this setting often lack the time to heat up properly, and coffee comes out cooler. A disposable charcoal filter removes chlorine and odors from tap water, improving coffee flavor, and should be changed every few months. Other features include a gold-tone commercial-style filter (or use No. 4 basket-style paper filters); capacity to use preground coffee instead of beans; 30-second Brew Pause, which allows a cup be poured before brewing is complete; and an audible tone to indicate the pot is ready. The grinder removes for easy cleaning, and all removable parts can be washed safely in the upper rack of a dishwasher. The Cuisinart Grind and Brew measures 15 by 8 by 7-1/2 inches, and comes with a three-year warranty. –Ann Bieri

Product Description
With its sleek Italian styling, brushed stainless finish and “loaded” feature package, you’d expect nothing less than a fabulous cup of coffee. And you won’t be disappointed! From filtering the water, to grinding the beans, to keeping your brew hot, not to mention having it ready and waiting for you first thing in the morning, this handsome machine does it all, and then some.

La Pavoni’s shiny, square-shaped espresso machine is 12 by 16 inches in size and looks more like a regular coffee maker than models with a pull-down handle. It’s attractive enough to leave out on the counter but light enough to put away if storage space permits. This model has a chromed body made of sturdy ABS plastic, with black wrap-around accent stripes. It has push-button features for frothing milk and automatically metering out water, so it’s a good choice for those new to making their own lattes. All the gadgets needed for making drinks are included: a tamper, drip tray, measuring ladle, and cappuccino attachment. It also includes an adapter for use with purchased coffee “pods” (prepackaged ground coffee for espresso making) for those in a hurry for a morning mocha. –Marcie Bovetz

Equipped with an extra-large feed tube, a small feed tube, a dough blade, and slicing and shredding discs, this 600-watt, 11-cup, full-size food processor provides all the power, versatility, and capacity needed by any household. The motor automatically adjusts the speed to ensure proper consistency when mixing dough. Cooks experienced with Cuisinart food processors will welcome the new feed tube and pusher assembly, which is easy to use and conveniently located at the machine’s front. At 4-1/4 inches by 2-3/4 inches, the large oval feed tube accommodates whole fruits and vegetables. The small, cylindrical tube is located inside the pusher assembly and has its own hollow pusher, which removes with a twist. On the bottom of the small pusher is a pinhole for dribbling oil into the bowl while making mayonnaise. The Lexan work bowl is virtually shatterproof and impervious to heat or cold. There’s the familiar stainless-steel chopping blade and a dough blade. Stainless-steel slicing (4 mm) and shredding discs, a plastic spatula shaped for the work bowl, a recipe booklet, and an instruction video showing basic use, tips, techniques, and preparation of some recipes from the booklet complete the package. (Existing Cuisinart blades and discs also fit this machine.) Cuisinart warranties the motor against defects for 10 years and the remaining parts for three years. –Fred Brack

Two powerful kitchen appliances have been brought together in this blender/food processor by Cuisinart. The heavy-duty motor base is up to both blending and processing tasks, and won’t “walk” on the counter, even when it’s crushing ice. Use the blender with its dripless pour spout to make and serve 40 ounces of frozen drinks or to purée baby foods or soups; use the processor to prep up to 3 cups of vegetables, cheeses, nuts, and meats. With one motor base, it’s simple to keep the blender out on the counter and then bring out the processor attachment for special tasks. This is an amazingly sturdy product, with tight-fitting lids, a heavy glass blender jar, and a motor that chops meat or ice with equal aplomb. Most attachments are dishwasher-safe, and the flat touch pad, which has seven settings (including ice crush and pulse), is easily wiped down with a sponge. This dual appliance comes with a booklet that explains how to use all the features and lists 48 recipes, from cranberry-orange mimosas to classic mayonnaise. –Maria Dolan

With its powerful 1/2-horsepower motor, this convenient food processor quickly and easily slices, dices, chops, and purees, helping to reduce prep time in the kitchen.

The food processor features a large 9-cup-capacity work bowl, premium-quality multipurpose stainless-steel blade, and a large feed tube and pusher for continuous processing. The food processor also comes with a 4-cup mini bowl with a mini multipurpose blade, which transforms the food processor into a mini chopper, perfect for smaller tasks like chopping herbs, nuts, and onions, mincing garlic, or making baby food. Accessories include a dough blade, a 4-mm (medium) shredding disc, a spatula/cleaning tool, and instructions with recipes. For added convenience, the base of the appliance wipes clean easily, and the bowls, blades, and discs are dishwasher safe. Stylish and functional for today’s busy kitchen, the food processor measures 10-1/2 by 14-1/2 by 8-9/32 inches and carries a one-year hassle-free replacement warranty.
