Steam technology system

Steam is an essential element of the coffee machine. It is crucial for making drinks that contain milk (lattes, cappuccinos, emulsions).

In response to baristas’ needs, we have developed a system with a large capacity as well as the flexibility to allow maximum control during use.

Excellent steam power thanks to a specific, large capacity boiler.
PID Temperature Control
Exclusive in-house technology steam nozzle in stainless steel with two positions.
Very long, multi-directional steam wand with thermal protection.
Ergonomic lever design.
Steam tips with a special angle and design.

Independent steam boiler. AISI 316

Manufactured in 100% AISI 316 stainless steel.
Plasma-welded both inside and out.
Extremely sturdy and large capacity: 8,5 litres
Weight: 9 kg

In addition, with more than 9 kg of thermal mass in very thick AISI 316 stainless steel it provides exceptional thermal stability. This means that the steam pressure is kept constant and it uses less energy while at the same time maximising steam production.

Lime scale hardly ever adheres to stainless steel. This makes cleaning much simpler and means repairs are a thing of the past.

Our boilers (coffee and steam) include a thermal sleeve which reduces the machine’s consumption by up to 35%.

PID temperature control

PID temperature control
The temperature can be regulated by PID control. This system dramatically reduces recovery time, leading to a much larger and more consistent amount of steam.

Steam joystick

The stick facilitates use and improves control. A smooth, intuitive ‘natural’ movement makes it easy to use and control.

Water push buttons

Double dose/hot water selection. Backlit buttons.

Steam wands

Made from ‘cool touch’ AISI 316L stainless steel. Very thick (12 mm in diameter). The heat insulation (double stainless steel wall + insulating material) prevents burns and makes it easy to clean any milk residue.

We offer two types of outlet (Peek material):

Outlet with four holes 1.2 mm in diameter, with a smaller steam flow for greater control.
Outlet with four holes 1.6 mm in diameter with a larger steam flow for heating large quantities of milk. (Optional)

Special design makes it easy to obtain a constant cream.

Double Wall Stainless Steel. Longer thermal insulation time (in 2 minutes of continuous use, the tube does not exceed 40ºC). Longer durability (stainless steel is almost eternal).

Red. Teflon inner tube.
Green. Stainless steel double walled tube.

Hot water

The hot water system is equipped with a water diffusor in AISI 316 stainless steel designed especially to obtain a more consistent and gentle water flow.

Solenoid valve-fed hot water.
