The Kismile CM8031 is a 20-bar espresso machine with a built-in conical burr grinder, so you grind and brew in one countertop unit. It has a steam wand for milk texturing and a compact footprint of about 13 inches wide by 16 inches tall. It suits home baristas who want fresh-ground espresso without buying a separate grinder. Against rivals like the Breville Barista Express, it offers the same grind-and-brew idea but with fewer controls and a smaller owner base, so expect less polish and a shorter track record.

The conical burr grinder has 30 preset grind settings. You can set the grinding time and the single or double cup output volume. PID temperature control keeps accuracy within 30°F.
