BlitzHome CM5105 and Novulife BG710T: Coffee Machine and Grinder Overview

The BlitzHome CM5105 espresso machine has a 20-bar pump and a 1-liter water tank. The Novulife BG710T electric grinder offers 30 grind settings. Together, they allow you to prepare espresso from freshly ground beans without a separate large grinder.

BlitzHome CM5105: Specifications and controls

The espresso machine has a touch control panel and a power rating of 1,350 W at 220 V. Its 1-liter tank holds enough water for multiple preparations, although the number of cups depends on their size and how else the water is used.

The manufacturer states an extraction temperature of 92 °C. This describes the set temperature, not verified temperature stability throughout brewing. Similarly, 20 bar is the pump's pressure rating; it does not mean the coffee is extracted at that same pressure. Coffee freshness, grind size and preparation technique also affect the final taste.

The machine measures 299 × 301 × 123 mm. Before placing it on a counter, check that there is also enough room to refill the water and operate the machine. The order of the dimensions is not specified.

Novulife BG710T: Grinding and capacity

The Novulife BG710T electric grinder offers 30 grind settings. Finer settings are used for espresso, while coarser settings may suit other brewing methods. The number of settings alone does not guarantee that the grind range and adjustment steps will suit every espresso setup.

The grinder has a CNC-machined grinding component made of 420 stainless steel and operates at 350–450 rpm. A lower speed may help limit heat buildup during grinding, though the result also depends on how the grinder is used.

The stated capacity is 100 g for beans and ground coffee. The available specification does not make clear whether this is the capacity of each container separately. The grinder measures 159 × 112 × 265 mm, has a 150 W power rating and runs on 220 V. The order of its dimensions is not specified either.

Using the two devices

Grinding beans just before brewing helps make use of their fresh aroma. For espresso, you can start with a fine setting and adjust it according to how the coffee flows and tastes. If it flows too quickly or too slowly, grind size is one of the settings worth checking.

Before buying, check the dimensions and the space needed to operate both devices, as well as whether the grinder's range suits your brewing method. Check the electrical ratings on the device labels and confirm that the voltage, frequency and plug are compatible with your local supply. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for cleaning and maintenance.

The CM5105 and BG710T are a practical combination for making coffee at home from freshly ground beans. Their specifications alone, however, do not establish long-term durability or the machine's temperature stability during extraction.
