Capresso Café TS 15-bar Touchscreen Espresso Machine 50oz

Touchscreen Espresso Machine

The Capresso Café TS is a steam espresso machine built for home users who want barista-quality drinks without a steep learning curve. Its illuminated touchscreen offers four preset buttons for single or double espresso, latte, cappuccino, and hot water. The 15-bar stainless-steel lined Thermo-Block heats water immediately before brewing for consistent results. It accepts both ground coffee and pods for daily flexibility.

Installation and common issues

Setup is straightforward: fill the 50-ounce removable water tank, insert the portafilter with coffee or a pod, and select a beverage on the touchscreen. The compact stainless housing fits tight counter spaces, but the steam wand requires enough vertical clearance for frothing pitchers. Users should descale the Thermo-Block regularly to maintain pressure and prevent blockages in the steam system. The 30-minute auto-shutoff prevents accidental operation if the machine is left on.

Capacity and headroom

The 50-ounce water tank supports multiple drinks before needing a refill, suiting households with several coffee drinkers. The 15-bar pump delivers enough pressure for rich espresso extraction and steady steam for milk texturing. Single and double shot presets cover standard servings, though the tank volume limits back-to-back entertaining without refills. The machine is designed for personal or small-group use rather than high-volume service.
