Ninja Luxe Café Premier ES601UK
3-in-1 espresso, filter and cold-brew machine
Editorial review Reviewed 20 October 2026 How we assess products
The Ninja Luxe Café Premier ES601UK makes sense when one person wants a flat white and another wants a larger black coffee. Espresso, filter-style coffee and rapid cold modes share one grinder, while built-in weighing and grind guidance reduce the guesswork of dosing. Unlike the Ninja Luxe Café Pro, the Premier does not have an integrated tamping lever. You tamp separately and move the portafilter yourself. Automatic jug preparation then takes much of the practice out of hot milk and cold foam, including suitable dairy and plant-based milks.
