You may have noticed a growing trend of coffee brands introducing specialized cold brew machines for home use. Recent examples include De’Longhi’s Primadonna and the Brevvo portable coffee maker, both of which feature a dedicated cold brew feature. Now, Smeg has joined the movement with its new ECF03 cold brew espresso machine.
Crafted in Italy in collaboration with Deepdesign, the Smeg ECF03 blends 1950s-inspired style with modern functionality. This stylish countertop model lets you craft barista-quality cold brew at home in just two minutes. The company claims to achieve this brewing level by optimizing the water-to-coffee ratio and extraction time.
Built with die-cast aluminum, stainless steel accents, and glossy finishes, it balances durability with a timeless look. Being an espresso machine, it works through a Thermoblock heating system with 15‑bar pressure and precise temperature control that allows you to adjust the brew settings as per your personal needs or the bean quality.
The dedicated Cold Brew function uses slow extraction to bring out delicate aromas and natural sweetness, perfect for coffee cocktails or smooth, refreshing drinks without any heating. The coffee machine supports single or double espresso, cold brew (100 ml / 160 ml), and adjustable espresso length to make it possible to prepare a wide variety of coffee styles in just one unit.
It comes with a 1.4-liter removable water tank and a 58 mm portafilter for professional-quality brewing. There is also an integrated pressure gauge that allows real-time control of the espresso process to ensure optimal brewing.
The machine also includes a professional steam wand that can be used to create silky milk froth for cappuccinos and flat whites. The removable drip tray makes room for larger cups and simplifies cleaning, while the passive cup warmer keeps your espresso at the ideal temperature.

Available in four colors, the Smeg ECF03 cold brew espresso machine measures 364 × 205 × 295 mm, weighs nearly 12 kg. With multiple functionalities, it brings the Italian espresso bar experience right into your home. The coffee machine is now available to buy from the Smeg UK official website for £500 (roughly $670).
