A heat exchanger machine splits one boiler between brewing and steaming. A dual boiler has two boilers, each with its own temperature. You only notice the difference when multiple drinks are made in succession.
The E61 was introduced in 1961 and has remained the reference point since.
Stainless steel is resistant to water constituents and neutral in taste.
With a tank the machine does not need a water connection and can be placed anywhere there is a power outlet.
58 millimeters is the most common size.
A PID control continuously measures the temperature and regulates the heater accordingly, instead of simply switching it on and off at a threshold.
With Flow Control you regulate during the extraction how much water runs through the coffee grounds.
The duration of the pre-infusion can be adjusted rather than being fixed by the machine's configuration.
A rotary pump runs significantly quieter and more evenly than a vibration pump and holds the pressure more steady over the entire extraction.
The same values by which you filter and compare in the shop. Is something missing? Write to us, we'll add it.
The E61 was introduced in 1961 and has remained the reference point since. A thermosiphon keeps it at temperature continuously, instead of you having to search for it before each shot. You can get seals, shower screens and portafilters for it from specialty dealers, not just the manufacturer.
A rotary pump runs significantly quieter and more evenly than a vibration pump and holds the pressure more steady over the entire extraction. It is also the prerequisite for a machine to be connected to the water line.
A PID control continuously measures the temperature and regulates the heater accordingly, instead of simply switching it on and off at a threshold. The difference does not show in the first espresso of the day but in the third in a row: the machine hits the same point again.
Stainless steel is resistant to water constituents and neutral in taste. It conducts heat more slowly than copper, but the temperature stays more stable when many shots are pulled in succession.
The duration of the pre-infusion can be adjusted rather than being fixed by the machine's configuration. With light roasted beans, which are harder to extract, this is a control you actually need.
With Flow Control you manually control how quickly the water runs through the coffee grounds: start slowly, then increase pressure. That takes the edge off acidic beans and gives you an extra adjustment. Without Flow Control the extraction runs at a fixed pressure, and that is enough for most recipes.
With a tank the machine does not need a water connection and can be placed anywhere there is a power outlet. For that you have to refill, and the water quality is in your hands: filtered or soft water reduces descaling.
58 millimeters is the most common size. Baskets, tampers, levelers and distributors are available for it from many manufacturers, so you are not tied to an unusual size or a single supplier.
The top surface of the machine is warmed by residual heat. A prewarmed cup draws less heat from the espresso, and those last degrees decide whether it still tastes the same in the glass as in the cup.
The machine switches itself off after a set time or goes into a low-power state. That saves electricity when you turn it on in the morning and then forget about it during the day. Without standby it stays on until you switch it off.

Three varieties that we have dialed in on exactly this machine. Start recipe included.
All coffee beans in our range are organic.
Beans ship free with the machine and come from the same roast week.
Wiedecent Tamper V6 58.35 mmThe tamper supplied with most machines is made of plastic. A properly fitting tamper fills the portafilter basket to the edge, and it is exactly there that you find out whether the water will flow through evenly.
Brewing group brush with wooden handleRun it through the brew group once a day, two minutes of work. Without that, coffee oils build up on the shower screen and the extraction becomes uneven long before you taste it.
PULY Caff Powder NSFBackflush with a blind basket every one to two weeks. This removes the coffee oils from the group head and valve that the water jet does not reach.
