Know before you buy
Yes. Because this machine uses a heat exchanger system, you can pull a shot and steam your milk simultaneously without waiting for the boiler to switch temperatures.
The PID controller allows you to precisely manage the boiler temperature, resulting in more consistent extraction and better flavor stability compared to traditional pressurestat-controlled machines.
The T.E.A. (Thermal Energy Advanced) coating is a protective layer applied to the brass boiler to significantly reduce the leaching of lead and other metals into your water, ensuring a cleaner cup.
The machine features a magnetic float sensor for water level detection, which replaces the older, noisier micro-switch design, contributing to a quieter and more reliable user experience.
The Anita Evo measures 11 inches wide, 17 inches deep, and 16 inches high. You should also account for a few extra inches of clearance above the machine to easily refill the 3-liter water reservoir.
The E-61 is a professional-grade group head that uses thermo-siphon circulation to keep the brew group consistently hot. This ensures that your portafilter and coffee grounds stay at the ideal temperature for every shot.
