Ninja has added two new domestic coffee machines aimed at people who want café-standard drinks at home without spending hours learning latte art. The range includes a fully automatic model with multiple one-touch drinks and a compact machine that pairs espresso and filter brewing in a smaller footprint — both are on sale in Ireland.
A full café menu with minimal fuss
The top-of-the-range model, the Ninja AutoBarista Pro Automatic Espresso Machine (AE1051UK), promises to reproduce a wide selection of shop-style beverages at the push of a button. It offers 13 one-touch programmes</strong), covering hot and cold options such as espresso, cappuccino, flat white, iced latte and cold brew.
Its automated system — described by the maker as AutoBarista Technology — adjusts grind, extraction and frothing for each recipe. There are five froth presets, from light steamed milk to dense, extra-thick foam and cold foam, and two user profiles so households can save individual preferences for strength, cup size, temperature and milk texture.

Dual beans and easier maintenance
The AutoBarista Pro includes two interchangeable bean hoppers, each holding 340g, so users can switch between blends or single-origin beans without emptying the hopper. Several removable components are dishwasher-safe, while a self-purging steam wand and automatic rinse cycle reduce hands-on cleaning.
The machine is listed at an RRP of €1,059.99 and is supplied with replacement water filters, cleaning tablets, descaler and a recipe guide alongside the two bean hoppers.
Smaller footprint, broad capability
For kitchens where counter space is at a premium, Ninja’s Luxe Café Mini Plus Espresso Machine (ES352UK) is positioned as a more compact alternative. The company states it is around 30% smaller than the Luxe Café Pro and combines espresso brewing with filter coffee in a single unit.
The Mini Plus features an integrated grinder, a built-in precision scale and a frothing system with a hands-free steam wand aimed at producing fine microfoam. It accepts both single and double espresso baskets and offers three strength and temperature settings to tailor each cup.
Like the larger model, parts of the Mini Plus are designed for easy cleaning: many components are dishwasher-safe and the steam wand wipes clean.
Price and where to buy
The Ninja Luxe Café Mini Plus is priced at an RRP of €589.99. Both the AutoBarista Pro and the Mini Plus are available now from NinjaKitchen.ie and selected electrical retailers across Ireland.
