1. Main specifications
Paddle
Allows to change, in real time, the ow of the water during
extraction to regulate pressure manually for the best possible
result in the cup with every type of coffee blend.
Pre-infusion with programmable
parameters
To moisten the coffee for a few seconds before the start of the
actual brewing stage. This compacts the coffee powder and
improves the ow of coffee.
Flow programmable parameters
Through the LCC, the water ow can be set and automatically
replicated every at extraction.
LCC
To adjust the boiler temperature, control the perfect settings for
coffee and steam.
Stainless steel

pliance. A simple wipe with a microber cloth and your machine
will shine again.
Coffee slide
An innovative dispensing spout that can be used for both one or
two cups and that allows the user to see the coffee cream on its
way towards the cup.

Dual boiler
Two separate boilers, one for steam and hot water and one for

consumption of the machine to match your routine. By default,

is stable; if needed, screw/unscrew the feet to adjust the position of the machine.
