The Ninja ES701UK Luxe Café Pro Series bean-to-cup coffee machine uses Barista Assist Technology to recommend a grind setting for your chosen drink, then keeps an eye on brew temperature and pressure as the coffee extracts. With a 2 litre water reservoir, this 3-in-1 machine pours espresso, filter coffee and cold brew, and its built-in grinder, scale and tamper take the guesswork out of every dose.
Coffee and milk
Pick from 9 espresso styles and 4 coffee styles, served in any of 7 drink sizes. The automated burr grinder offers 25 grind settings, the scale weighs the grounds for you, and a lever on the integrated tamper presses them into an even puck without the mess. For milk drinks, the Advanced Dual Froth System heats milk with steam and whisks it at once, working with dairy or plant-based milk through 5 presets: Cold Foam, Extra-Thick Froth, Thick Froth, Thin Froth and Steamed Milk.
Controls and everyday use
Select a drink, a style and a size, and the machine proposes the settings to match, giving you the same result cup after cup. The froth wand is made to wipe clean easily once you have finished. Supplied with the machine:

- Single, Double and Luxe baskets (three in all) for the portafilter
- a cleaning brush, plus descaling powder and cleaning tablets in the cleaning and starter kit
