    Great quality superautomatic

    I bought a Delonghi magnifica evo and immediately it just felt plasticy and cheap for how durable it seems like it should be for how expensive it is. This Ninja, while new and unproven over the long term, feels worlds more robust and high quality. It looks nice and has been working really well. The drip tray is slightly obnoxious to try to keep level, bringing over to the sink, but that's not unique to this machine. The grind IQ can burn through a lot of grounds up front, but once you get the settings locked in, it does exactly what I want and exactly why i got a superautomatic: a consistent drink with only like 1 button press. Tweaking the settings like grind size and strength everything were frustrating at the beginning because the machine adjusts things in the background which makes it hard to isolate variables, but if you just trust the grind iq and dial in little things from there, I've gotten to a really decent output. Beans I've been using successfully for the last 2 weeks: Lavazza Super Crema and Counter Culture Big Trouble.

    Coffee Heaven

    If you are thinking about getting this, DO IT!! You will not be disappointed. It is easy to use and having different drink selections gives you variety each and every day. Yes it is on the pricey side, but it will pay for itself once you start making your drinks at home and not having to buy them. It can save your selections for each drink you make. If you like variety and not having to guess at making your drinks, this is the coffee, espresso, etc machine to buy!!

    Love it!!!

    My husband loves it. It's easy to use and has very good pressure. It's big and uses a lot of water, but we really like it.

    Best yet

    Amazing machine. We have owned each of them and upgraded each tile ash’s each time we were not disappointed. Yes it’s pricey but it’s way cheaper than the other known brands and does way more at this price point. Easy to use and cleans itself each time. Well worth the money for the upgrade. So far no regrets.

Questions & Answers

  • How do you make the cold foam

    in the milk frother! there is also a setting when making cold drinks

    Answered by leslie

  • Can this machine make hot chocolate?

    It has the option to put out hot water!

    Answered by leslie

  • Can you brew just a regular cup of coffee;

    Yes! It's the drip coffee option. You can also put ground coffee in it.

    Answered by leslie

  • Is this true cold brew? How, specifically?

    The AE1051 Ninja AutoBarista does make true cold brew. It brews at a lower temperature for a naturally sweet coffee with minimal bitterness, not just hot coffee over ice.

    Answered by SharkNinja Product Expert

  • Is the coffee brewed in plastic or metal? I am looking for plastic free path for the hot water

    The AutoBarista is designed so that hot water or coffee does not come into contact with plastic after leaving the reservoir, and the internal lines are made from food-safe materials.
