What reviewers say
Expert Reviews and Ideal Home found the guided preparation approachable and the milk system effective, while both noted frequent water and drip-tray attention. Ideal Home valued the tamping lever, easier-cleaning wand and larger jug. Expert Reviews found the grinder consistent but criticised the hard-to-see bean level and missing early refill warning, along with limits that may frustrate experienced espresso users. These tests cover the stainless-steel Pro rather than independently testing every later cosmetic finish.

Specifications
Report a wrong or missing specBrewing
- Type
- Espresso
- Integrated grinder
- Yes
- Grind settings
- 25
- Milk system
- Automatic steam wand
- Coffee and capsule compatibility
- Uses separately handled single, double and Luxe baskets in a portafilter, despite bean-to-cup wording in some marketing. User moves the portafilter from the grinder/tamper cradle to the brew group; extraction is not fully automatic bean-to-cup operation.
- Drinks and brewing modes
- Espresso, ristretto, lungo, quad and Americano settings; Classic, Rich, Over Ice and Cold Brew coffee styles. Available basket and drink combinations depend on selected model and mode.
- Temperature control
- UK Pro manual provides Low, Medium and High brew and froth temperature settings without numerical degrees; no numerical extraction temperature is inferred.
- Grinder
- Integrated conical burr grinder with 25 selectable settings and Barista Assist grind recommendations.
- Dosing and tamping
- Built-in scale measures the dose; integrated lever tamper prepares the puck. UK manual recommends tamping twice and following subsequent grind recommendations.
- Milk preparation
- Advanced Dual Froth System automatically steams and whisks milk in the supplied XL jug, with steamed milk, thin, thick, extra-thick and cold froth presets. Steam wand auto-purges when returned to its storage position; manual frothing is also described by the Pro manual.
- Cold drinks
- Cold Brew and cold-pressed espresso are maker-named rapid extraction modes. Over Ice is a separate mode and its name alone is not evidence of cold extraction. Manual requires ice in the vessel for cold coffee modes; these are not overnight immersion brewing.
Capacity
- Water tank
- 2 L
- Water supply
- Removable 2 L reservoir in the exact ES700 UK Pro manual. Test supplied strip and set water hardness; optional filter use does not remove descaling requirements.
- Cup sizes and clearance
- Seven advertised coffee sizes from 175 to 530 ml; concentrated or over-ice outputs and strength settings alter dispensed volume. Hot-water program dispenses 200 ml unless stopped earlier.
Design and power
- Height
- 371.1 mm
- Width
- 351 mm
- Depth
- 333 mm
- Weight
- 11.56 kg
- Rated power
- 1,650 W
- Controls and profiles
- Onboard buttons and dials for grind, brew, milk type, temperature, strength, hot water, purge and cleaning; guided notifications are not full automation.
- Electrical requirements
- Exact UK ES700 Pro manual specifies 220–240 V, 50–60 Hz and 1,650 W. Eco mode turns the boiler off after brewing; this does not establish whole-machine automatic power-off.
- Size and weight
- Current stainless-steel ES701UK maker table gives length 33.3 cm, width 35.1 cm, height 37.11 cm and weight 11.56 kg, retained only in that configuration. Earlier UK marketing used 17.25 kg and different dimensions. Current ES701UKBK2 table gives clearly malformed 2.01 cm per axis and 2 kg; those values are omitted, and the stainless-steel figures are not transferred to it.
- Included accessories
- Portafilter, single/double/Luxe baskets, integrated tamper, funnel, XL jug with whisk, cleaning brush, cleaning starter kit and water-hardness strip. Supplied kits may vary by finish or promotion.
- Cleaning and maintenance
- Clean used portafilter/baskets and milk jug, wipe the steam wand, empty drip tray and follow cleaning/descale prompts. Exact manual makes filter preparation and water-hardness setup separate steps.
- Regional availability
- UK ES701UKBK2 black-on-black purchase fragment has enabled Add to Cart, checked October 2026; local stock/delivery conditions apply. Stainless-steel ES701UK fragment currently offers Notify Me, so its listing is not claimed in stock. Shared page stock text and schema entries for other variants are not used as evidence for silver availability.
- Release and generation details
- Exact worldwide first-sale date is unestablished by the maker sources read. Manual copyright and upload dates do not establish a retail launch.
