The Atatix EM3111 espresso machine has the little front pressure gauge, the stainless-steel finish, and the steam wand that make a countertop coffee setup feel like a tiny café. The interesting part is how much it fits into that narrow body.
According to Atatix’s Amazon listing, it measures about 5 inches wide, 12 inches deep, and 11 inches tall. That is a much easier proposition than surrendering an entire counter to the coffee situation.
Atatix provided this machine to Totally The Bomb as a gift. Coverage and opinions are our own.
The coffee-shop details are all here
The EM3111 has a 20-bar pump, a 1350-watt rating, and a pressure gauge on the front. There is a portafilter for the coffee, plus single- and double-cup filters in the box.
That little gauge gives it a proper espresso-machine look. Between that, the silver finish, and the wand on the side, this is absolutely coffee-bar territory.
The controls also offer a manual extraction option alongside the automatic espresso settings. Atatix describes that as a way to adjust how long the machine brews. Those are the listed features, rather than a promise that every shot will come out perfect.
The steam wand is where the latte plans begin
The built-in wand is designed to steam and froth milk for drinks like lattes and cappuccinos. So the possibilities go beyond a straight shot of espresso.
White chocolate mocha? Very reasonable. Something with an unreasonable amount of whipped cream? Also an option.
Our copycat Starbucks White Chocolate Mocha uses espresso, milk, white chocolate sauce, and whipped cream. It is an easy place to start planning the home-coffee menu.
One practical detail worth knowing: the EM3111 listing at Walmart says to let the machine cool down after frothing milk before brewing coffee. Follow the machine’s instructions for that step rather than going straight from steaming to another shot.
A removable tank helps with the everyday stuff
The water reservoir comes off for refilling, and the drip tray is removable too. Less glamorous than the pressure gauge, considerably more relevant when it is time to clean up.
Atatix lists the construction as ABS and stainless steel, so this is a stainless-steel look with plastic components, rather than an all-metal machine.
