Filter holder

The filter holder is one of the most heavily used parts of the machine. It is important that the design facilitates the barista’s work.

We focused on various aspects of the handle:

Designed to adapt to the palm of the hand, conveying a pleasant sense of strength and safety in use.
The 10º tilt facilitates its use, allowing the hand to adopt a natural position.
Horizontal resting position of the filter holder for perfect tamping of the ground coffee.

Coffee spouts. Thanks to the closing system these are always positioned centrally, making assembly and dismantling safe and easy.

Steam joystick (T-Plus)

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

Steam/water knobs

Over-sized, innovative shape with a pleasant feel. Non-slip grip.

Steam and water wands

Made from AISI 316 stainless steel. The steam wand is anti-lime scale and remains cool to the touch, reducing the risk of contact burns.
Milk build-up is reduced to a minimum, making for easy cleaning.

Steam outlets. Special design. The rounded edges, the smooth lines and four tangential outlets all mean creamy coffee every time. 4 outlets 1,2mm (1,6 optional)

Powerful professional steam

Emulsifies the milk to the ideal point for perfect cappuccinos. Our large-capacity boilers, with their incredible thickness, offer greater steam production stability.
