Features
Refined Thermosyphon System
Utilizes a large central copper boiler with dedicated heat exchangers for each group, creating a natural thermal flow that keeps the group heads heated and stable.
Massive Copper Boiler
Features a 13-liter (Duette) or 19-liter (Triplette) pure copper boiler, providing exceptional, continuous steam pressure for high-volume milk beverage production.
Progressive Pre-Infusion Cylinder
Standardly equipped with a mechanical pre-infusion cylinder on each group, gently introducing water to the puck to increase extraction yield and eliminate channeling.
Energy-Saving Mix Water System
Hot water for teas and Americanos is mixed with cold water to provide a steady, non-spattering flow, saving energy and preserving boiler pressure.
E61-Style Commercial Groups
Incorporates heavy brass-core E61-style group heads that act as massive heat sinks, guaranteeing thermal consistency from the first shot to the last.
Auto-Backflush Program
Simplifies end-of-day cleaning with an automated backflushing program where all groups pressurize and discharge simultaneously.
