I mean, what you say is not completely wrong, but it’s open for discussion. We (you, me, some other people here) are in the bubble of coffee enthusiasts, while majority of people simply want their daily drug in the morning or sweetened energy booster in the afternoon and they are perfectly happy wit

This machine is awesome. Ninja Lux Cafe.

Ngl, I have had a Ninja Luxe cafe for just about six months now. The wife and I use it as a daily driver for almond milk lattes. The foam isn’t the greatest, but we’re not latte artists and don’t claim to be. It’s absolute heaven, we both love it. Just got done with my cup of joe.

Pro or Luxe?

They are all called Ninja Luxe Café, then there is the:- ES501 Essential ES601/ES655 Premiere/Costco variant ES701 Pro I had two Pro's. If I was to buy one again, which I won't, I'd go for the ES601/ES655 as the Integrated tamper on the Pro is just one of its Achilles heel's. Through many months of

Output color mostly black

Yes, please see below. It's quite long, so just dip in and out if the sub-headings that suit your needs. Hope it helps. Ninja's basics For your sanity only use Barista Assist (BA) as a guide to get you close to dialed in and once there ignore it. Before pulling your shot run a blank shot through the

Is the luxe pro awful or am I just unlucky?

Ouch! Don't worry about the grind size hit matching your old one, they are set up by hand in the factory, some shimmed, some not. What intrigued me is the fact you're still using Barista Assist. Go into the Additional Settings menu and turn it off, the very worst part of these machines. Dial In from

Ratio not correct on the luxe pro.

No. Well that answers your question. Can I make a recommendation, the next time you go into the Additional Settings menu and reach for _h04, can I suggest stopping at _h03 and turn it off. Barista Assist is by far the worst thing in the Ninja Luxe Café machines. If you look at the image below, even Ni

Ditching Nespresso for real espresso. Don't know where to start, help me build a setup [$500-2k]

I got the ninja luxe cafe and I’m really enjoying it. My wife can easily make a shot while I’m not home when I have it dialed in. I got it from Costco in case it gave me troubles or didn’t like it.

My new ES701 is not brewing the full amount of coffee it is set to brew

Ah, thanks for that last bit of info. Barista Assist is just that, an assistant, not Grind Size Almighty. My personal opinion, go into Additional Settings menu and turn it off, it's caused more problems than anything else. Change the grind size to get the output you want. Don't let the machine ruin

Finally got perfect shot - Pro

I’ll make adjustments to the temperature. Then I’ll use the manual tamper from ES655 just to see if I have to adjust the tamping pressure. Probably try to brew from both machines to see if both consistent. If I got a perfect shot from ES655 but not ES701 with the same prep ,I know I have issue with

Morning Routine Question

We just replaced our Nespresso Vertuo with a Ninja ES701. It’s a massive step up in terms of quality of both coffee and milk. My wife is less technically minded than me but has made the switch with no problem. We changed because the Nespresso coffee was in my view just coffee flavoured water, the Ni
