Coffee and capsule compatibility
Coffee and capsule compatibility	Portafilter espresso machine with an integrated grinder and dosing scale; the user moves and tamps the basket by hand before extraction.	Semi-automatic portafilter machine; the user moves the basket from the grinding cradle to the group head and tamps espresso by hand. Bean-to-cup marketing does not mean automatic extraction from hopper to cup.
Drinks and brewing modes
Drinks and brewing modes	Espresso plus Classic, Rich and Over Ice coffee; maker UK comparison also lists a hot-water setting. Three strengths and three brew-temperature selections are advertised.	Current UK page advertises four espresso styles and Classic, Rich, Over Ice and Cold Brew coffee styles, with seven coffee sizes and four milk presets. Available selections depend on basket and version.
Temperature control
Temperature control	Maker publishes three temperature selections without numerical degrees; no precise extraction temperature is inferred.	UK manual offers Low, Medium and High brew and milk temperatures without numerical degrees. No precise extraction temperature is inferred.
Grinder
Grinder	Maker specifies 60 grind settings, with Barista Assist recommendations and brew monitoring. This is distinct from the 25-setting Premier and Pro.	Integrated conical burr grinder with 25 selectable settings; Barista Assist recommends a grind setting based on drink and subsequent extraction.
Dosing and tamping
Dosing and tamping	Built-in scale supports automatic weight-based dosing; supplied funnel and separate assisted tamper guide preparation.	Integrated scale measures the coffee dose. Separate assisted tamper and funnel are supplied; coffee modes use the Luxe basket without espresso-style tamping, as directed by the UK manual.
Portafilter and baskets
Portafilter and baskets	UK kit includes single and double espresso baskets, portafilter, funnel and separate assisted tamper.	Current UK silver, black and Cyber Space pages include single, double and Luxe baskets. The older manual warns that single baskets are not compatible with every version; earlier US reviews' missing single basket does not establish its absence from current UK kits.
Milk preparation
Milk preparation	Temperature-controlled automatic steam wand provides three hands-free milk presets and dairy or plant-based selection. Supplied jug has no Premier-style spinning whisk. Manual steaming is also available.	Dual Froth System steams and whisks milk in the supplied jug; steamed milk, thin froth, thick froth and cold foam presets support dairy or plant-based selection. Return the steam wand to its storage position for automatic purge; manual frothing is described in the UK manual.
Cold drinks
Cold drinks	Over Ice brews coffee for serving over ice; the UK maker page does not establish a cold-extraction or cold-foam programme.	Cold Brew and cold-pressed espresso are named rapid modes, distinct from Over Ice. The manual requires ice in the vessel; these modes are not overnight immersion cold brewing.

Electrical requirements
Electrical requirements	Current UK maker specification lists 1,650 W. The ES301UK manual linked by the distributor is not used to infer Mini Plus standby or shutdown behaviour.	Original ES601UK UK manual specifies 220–240 V, 50–60 Hz and 1,800 W, while the current maker silver table lists 1,650 W. Headline power is omitted pending resolution. Eco mode disables the boiler after brewing; this is not proof of whole-machine automatic shutdown.
Size and weight
Size and weight	Maker dimensions are length 26.01, width 30.91 and height 34.11 cm; length is recorded as depth here. Published product weight is 8.8 kg.	Current UK marketing states height 37.2, width 33.6 and length 34.4 cm with 17 kg, while its structured table gives 50.8 cm height, 38.71 cm width, 40.41 cm length and 11.77 kg. The unlabelled conflict is preserved here; neither set is assumed to be body-only measurements.
Included accessories
Included accessories	Machine, portafilter, single and double baskets, funnel, assisted tamper and milk jug are listed in the current UK kit.	Current UK kit lists portafilter, three baskets, assisted tamper, funnel, milk jug with whisk, cleaning brush/disc, descaling powder and hardness strip. Finish and promotional kit contents can vary.
Cleaning and maintenance
Cleaning and maintenance	Maker specifies a wipe-clean steam wand and dishwasher-safe removable parts; follow the exact supplied Mini Plus guide for which components and cleaning procedures apply.	Clean used baskets and portafilter, wipe the steam wand promptly, empty the drip tray and run prompted cleaning/descaling cycles. Manual explains that purge and pressure-control water fill the drip tray during ordinary operation.
Regional availability
Regional availability	Exact ES352UK maker purchase fragment has enabled Add to Cart and ready-to-order/available flags, checked October 2026. UK ordering is confirmed; delivery remains subject to address and maker terms.	Exact UK black ES601UKBK and Cyber Space ES601UKCY purchase fragments have enabled Add to Cart, checked October 2026; local delivery conditions apply. Silver ES601UK currently offers Notify Me and is explicitly out of stock, despite remaining listed.
Release and generation details
Release and generation details	Pages read do not establish first retail sale. Manual or asset dates are not used as launch dates.	Maker pages read do not establish worldwide first retail sale; the original manual's copyright or upload date is not a launch date.
Capacity
Water tank
Water tank	–	2 L
Water supply
Water supply	Reservoir capacity is omitted because the exact UK maker page does not publish it. The distributor link labelled ES352UK owners manual returns an ES301UK manual for the manual-steam Mini, which is not used for this model's figures.	Exact ES601UK manual specifies a removable 2 L reservoir; test water hardness and follow descaling prompts.
Cup sizes and clearance
Cup sizes and clearance	–	Seven maker coffee sizes from 175 to 530 ml; concentrated cold or over-ice modes dispense less liquid than the nominal cup size. Adjustable cup tray and removable centre drip tray accommodate different vessels.
Bean hopper
Bean hopper	Exact maker page does not publish hopper capacity; the two independent tests disagree on its capacity, so no headline capacity is inferred.	–
