The WMF Lumero portafilter coffee machine is a household espresso machine designed to prepare various coffee drinks such as espresso, cappuccino and latte. Its primary purpose is to enable coffee lovers to prepare coffees with a rich aroma and foam, as we know them from cafes, which is convenient for everyday use at home.

Using a classic portafilter system and high pressure of up to 15 bars, the machine allows you to prepare drinks from freshly ground coffee, but does not use capsules, which is important for those who want more control over the taste and types of coffee and prepare drinks to their taste. The machine has an integrated milk frother, with which you can prepare foam for cappuccino or latte, which further expands the possibilities of use for lovers of milky coffee drinks.

Key product features

⚖️ Compare features with other products of your choice

The machine works by pouring ground coffee into the portafilter, pressing it evenly and then preparing the desired beverage with the press of a button. The pump pressure reaches up to 15 bars, which allows for rapid extraction of flavors and the creamy crema that is key to authentic espresso. In practice, this pressure ensures that even small amounts of coffee will have a rich flavor, suitable for a short coffee or so-called espresso shot.

The water tank has a usable capacity of between 1.1 and 1.4 liters, which means you don't have to refill water often, even if you're making several coffees in a row. This capacity is suitable for normal everyday use in a household or a small company.

The milk frother is designed to easily froth milk for a cappuccino or create foam for a latte macchiato. The machine does not come with an integrated coffee grinder, so it is recommended to use pre-ground coffee or a separate grinder for the freshest taste.

The stainless steel exterior is not only aesthetically pleasing, but also easy to maintain and clean. The elegant silver finish blends in with a variety of kitchen styles, while the portafilter design allows for creativity in preparing a variety of coffees and beverages to suit your taste. The pod-less brewing function allows for more choice in using different coffee types and roasts, suitable for users who value the flexibility and tradition of manual brewing.

It is important to know

The key when choosing is whether you are comfortable with more manual preparation or want to make your coffee as automatically as possible. If you plan to frequently make several cups in a row, also keep in mind that you will need to refill the water more often than with a machine with a larger tank.

• The portafilter brewing method involves more involvement in the preparation than with an automatic machine; if hands-free brewing is most important to you, this is an important compromise.
• The tank capacity is below the recommended 1.5L guidance from the ENAA guide for multiple cups throughout the day, so more frequent refills may be necessary for multiple users.
• The data provided does not include a built-in grinder. If you want to use coffee beans, check before purchasing whether a grinder is included or whether you will need a separate one.

In practice

☕ Home espresso brewing with more control

🟢 Very suitable - a portafilter machine is a consistent choice for users who want to be more directly involved in preparing espresso.

🏠 Multiple cups throughout the day for multiple people

🟡 Suitable with limitations - the tank is smaller than the 1.5 l that the ENAA guide states as a guideline for several cups throughout the day, so more frequent refilling may be necessary.

⏱️ Coffee without manual labor

🔴 Less convenient – the portafilter brewing method requires more cooperation than an automatic machine, so it's not the best choice if you want one-touch brewing.
