WHAT STANDARD CHARACTERISTICS SHOULD I LOOK FOR IN AN ESPRESSO-CAPPUCCINO MACHINE?

Look for the features found in our machines. Those features are:

  • Rapid boiler temperature recovery through proper sizing of boiler and heating element to rated output
  • Ability to maintain optimum brewing temperature
  • Adequate volume of dry steam
  • Anti-siphon valve to prevent liquids from being sucked back into boiler
  • Automatic filling of boiler to optimum level when drawdown requires
  • Boiler safeguards, such as pressure switches, blow off valves and thermal safety switches
  • Ease of access for maintenance and repairs

WHAT ABOUT YOUR MACHINE CONSTRUCTION?

  • Group and filter holder are chrome plated brass
  • Vertical 1.5 litre boiler, nickel plated copper 1/8" wall x 3 1/2" in diameter, head exchange 1" diameter copper tubing.
  • All brass fittings, stainless threadware, 1/4 copper lines, 2 and 3 way stainless solenoid valves
  • Chrome plated steam wand, stainless steel tip.
  • All functions are rocker switch activated for ease and accuracy.
  • Removable self-contained stainless steel tray. Cup warmer atop the machine.
  • Microprocessor controlled dosing system (automatic models)
  • External programming of doses. Lighted push pad controls (automatic models)

WHY WOULD A PERSON PURCHASE A MACHINE FOR HOME USE?

That's what we asked when we started receiving so may inquiries about the availability of home espresso machines...

We learned that many people want to set up their own espresso bar at home so they could start enjoying their favorite drinks at any hour, day or night, and without the crowds - espresso, latte, cappuccino, mocha, teeccino.

In additional, there is rapid pay-back on the investment.
Purchasing $4.00 of drinks per day at an espresso bar or coffee shop adds up to $1460.00 in a year.
The Home Semiautomatic Espresso Machine is the same quality as our commercial espresso machines, and the regular price for the home semiautomatic espresso machine is only $1250.

WHAT IS A "POD"?

Pods are pre-measured packets of espresso coffee.

WHAT IS A "KNOCK BOX"?

Knock Boxes are stainless steel trays to hold spent pods or coffee grounds.
