Main Product Features:

When you are looking for an espresso machine at home, it is easy to become discouraged after searching over the market. This is because there are many subpar espresso machines that deliver less-than-tasty espressos. However, this is definitely not one of those machines.

With a powerful stainless steel design, this espresso machine has been designed to impress aesthetically as well as in taste. The linear design will sit on your counter without taking up too much room, which is a great feature for an espresso machine.

The brew group, as well as the boiler, have been modeled after commercial-grade espresso machines. The design of these features are made to retain as much heat as possible, giving you a perfectly warmed cup of espresso or coffee every time you use it.

One of the most professional features, that is surprisingly easy to use, is the over pressure valve, or OPV. This valve allows you to alter the pressure while brewing, which is necessary for creating a wide variety of coffee drinks.

The unique Ease Serve Espresso feature has been adapted to use with pods. With the unique coffee pod adaptation system, you are able to receive consistent espressos whenever you use it. This is a great feature for those who have never made their own espresso before.
