Know before you buy
Yes, the machine is highly flexible. You can operate it using the internal water reservoir or connect it directly to your home's water supply via a plumbed connection.
The dual boiler system features separate boilers for brewing espresso and steaming milk. This allows you to pull shots and steam milk simultaneously without any loss in temperature stability or pressure.
The detachable touchscreen allows you to easily adjust the temperature for both boilers, toggle the machine on or off, and set the 7-day programmable timer. It keeps the front of the machine clean and minimalist while providing precise control over your extraction parameters.
Yes, the machine is equipped with no-burn steam and hot water wands. They are insulated to remain cool to the touch, which prevents accidental burns and makes them much easier to clean after frothing milk.
The machine operates on standard 110V/120V household power and draws 1600W. It is designed to work with a standard 15-amp circuit, so no specialized industrial electrical setup is required.
The PID controller maintains precise temperature stability within the boilers, preventing the fluctuations that can lead to sour or bitter espresso. By keeping the water at a consistent set temperature, you can achieve repeatable, high-quality extractions every time.
