BENTON HARBOR, Mich., Sept. 29, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Just in time for the chilly days and holiday entertaining season ahead, KitchenAid is debuting several new coffee and espresso machines that are sure to help keep everyone warm and cozy. Designed with new brewing technologies, the machines bring barista quality to the home kitchen and celebrate the art of handcrafted coffee. Further details about the products listed below can be found at KitchenAidCraftCoffee.com.
Pour Over Coffee Brewer
Pour over coffee is a craft brewing method used to produce small batches of coffee by hand, providing a more complex, flavor infused cup of coffee. The new KitchenAid® Pour Over Coffee Brewer simulates this method with the touch of a button by using automatic pour over brew technology. Unlike traditional drip coffee makers that continuously flood the brew basket, the Pour Over Coffee Brewer heats the water to an optimal 200°F and then pulses it in carefully calibrated, staggered amounts to evenly saturate the grounds. This method prevents flavor dilution by not over-soaking the grounds, resulting in bright and full flavored coffee. Additional features include one-touch medium and dark roast settings, a cup selector setting and an easy-to-read digital progress bar.
As a testament to its precision and consistency, the KitchenAid® Pour Over Coffee Brewer has been recognized by the Specialty Coffee Association of America and the European Coffee Brewing Center, joining their esteemed short lists of brewers that have earned the Home Brewer certification. The Pour Over Coffee Brewer, available now exclusively at Williams-Sonoma in Medallion Silver and Onyx Black, carries a suggested retail price of $199.99.
Nespresso by KitchenAid
KitchenAid has partnered with Nespresso, the worldwide pioneer and reference in premium portioned coffee, to launch the Nespresso by KitchenAid machine, combining the brand's superior performance and design with Nespresso's expertise in sourcing the highest quality coffees and delivering an exceptional cup of coffee. The machine is built with a stainless-steel heating element that heats water in less than 30 seconds, and uses premium Nespresso OriginalLine Grand Cru coffee capsules to brew ristretto, espresso and lungo coffees at the touch of a button. Designed with sturdy die-cast metal construction and a removable 1.4 liter water tank, the Nespresso by KitchenAid machine will be available in Candy Apple Red, Empire Red, Onyx Black and Sugar Pearl Silver, at a suggested retail price of $399.99.
Pro Line® Series Espresso Maker with Dual Independent Boilers
For a hands-on espresso experience, the KitchenAid® Pro Line® Series Espresso Maker offers all of the premium features of a professional espresso machine, but in a size compact enough to fit on a kitchen countertop. Designed with dual independent boilers, the Pro Line® Series Espresso Maker can quickly brew espresso and steam milk simultaneously. A water dispenser can be used for Americanos, tea and other drinks, with a water boil time of just six minutes. A no-drip, adjustable frothing arm fits into a variety of cup sizes, and can swivel horizontally and vertically for added convenience. Built with a die-cast metal design, the Pro Line® Series Espresso Maker is available now in Candy Apple Red, Empire Red, Frosted Pearl White and Onyx Black at a suggested retail price of $1,299.
