Automatic espresso machines may dominate the market, but many of us would agree that semi-automatic machines still offer a more authentic taste and tactile experience. Capitalizing on the ongoing “hands-on” quality trend, New York-based brand Brooklyn Steel Co. has launched an at-home espresso machine that brings café-quality home. Named Talos 20, the espresso machine features an all-in-one design, which means you do not need multiple devices for your daily coffee rituals.
Built for both beginners and aspiring home baristas, Talos 20 includes a built-in conical burr grinder with 27 settings for precise, fresh grinding as required for different beans. It offers customizable grind times for both shot sizes: 3-20 seconds for a single shot and 8-30 seconds for a double.
The Talos 20 uses a Dual Thermoblock System with PID temperature control that reduces “wait time”. You can also manually adjust the water temperature for brewing from three preset ranges: Low, Medium, and High to “fine-tune” the extraction based on your beans. Furthermore, the onboard 20-Bar Italian Pump with pressure gauge offers more control over the extraction process.
Once you set your preferred settings, Talos remembers them to ensure you get consistent espresso automatically every day. Talos also includes a steam wand with a silicone grip and a Steam Pre-Heat button to prepare milk-based espresso recipes. Another cool highlight is the double-spout design that lets you dispense two drinks at once.

At the top of everything mentioned above, the Talos 20 includes a commercial-size 58mm portafilter and a full suite of barista tools, including a bean hopper, hopper extender, milk pitcher, dosing ring, tamper, tamping mat, single and double filter baskets, and cleaning tools. It is a complete package offering you cafe-quality brewing at home.
The Brooklyn Steel Co. Talos 20 espresso machine stands out for its professional-grade manual tools, without a hefty price. Available in two colors, it can be purchased for $499 from the official website or Amazon.
