Best latte machine
For lattes, the milk system matters more than the espresso. Every machine here froths milk for you; they differ in how close they get to café texture and how much they cost.

Which one
- Cheapest good lattes: Bambino Plus. Its automatic frothing makes good microfoam with little effort. (Tom's Guide, TechGearLab) Add a grinder.
- Lattes and iced drinks with the least effort: Ninja Luxe Café Premier. Its frothing works well with dairy and plant milks. (Tom's Guide, TechRadar, Coffee Kev)
- Push a button, nothing to hold: Magnifica Evo LatteCrema. One reviewer found its milk short of what a steam wand makes. (Reviewed) More in best super-automatic.
- Grinder and automatic milk in one box: Barista Touch. Reviewers agree its automatic frothing works well. (Expert Reviews, Kaffeemacher, Coffee Kev)
