Aroma Kicco ABS ESE Coffee Pod Machine

It looks like a coffee bean. Because it is.

The Kicco was designed around the shape of the thing it makes — and that's either the most obvious idea in espresso machine history, or a stroke of Italian genius. Probably both.

Load a 44mm ESE paper pod. Pull a rich, crema-topped espresso. Repeat. That's the whole routine — no grinding, no tamping, no mess. Just great coffee from a machine that earns its spot on the bench every single day.

Made for people who care how the bench looks

At 16cm wide with a hidden 1-litre tank, the Kicco takes up less space than it deserves. It fits the kitchen, the home office, the holiday house — anywhere you want café-quality espresso without a café-sized machine taking over.

What are ESE paper pods?

ESE stands for Easy Serving Espresso — Italy's original single-serve coffee format, and still the best one.

Each pod is a precise dose of freshly ground coffee, wrapped in biodegradable filter paper. Not plastic. Not aluminium. Just coffee and paper, the way it's been done across Italy for decades.

Insert the pod, brew, compost it. That's the whole story.

Compatible with hundreds of blends from any brand — so you choose the coffee, every time. No lock-in, no compromises, no capsule collection cluttering your bench.
