More Details

Three-Way Shot Control System

Optimum temperature
This 3-way system delivers the accurate & stable water temperature that is needed for consistently great tasting coffee.

Thermoblock Technology
The Thermoblock ensures fast heat up, and precise water temperature for the best espresso extraction & milk steaming. Only the required amount of water is heated for speed and efficiency. The Thermoblock heats water so that espresso extracts at 198°F for the optimum extraction of oils from the tamped coffee grinds. Temperatures above or below will result in burnt/bitter or weak tasting espresso.
Advanced PID Controller
The PID monitors and controls the Thermoblock to ensure water is always delivered to tamped coffee grinds at the precise temperature needed.
Gentle Pre-infusion
Small amounts of water are gently introduced onto the tamped coffee grinds before the steady flow of water, for a richer flavored espresso. (For different Pre-infusion profiles, see page 23)

Café 58mm

cafã©_58mm_calphalon_bvclecmp1_temp_iq_espresso_machine_with_grinder.png

Group Head & Portafilter Extract the maximum amount of flavor

The Group Head and the portafilter are commercial sized, 58mm, just like local café.

The wider size ensures the coffee grinds are more evenly spread in the Filter Baskets. The coffee grinds are easier to fill, tamp and remove after use.
The 58mm portafilter allows a more even extraction of the tamped coffee grinds, resulting in a true café tasting coffee.

Integrated Grinder

Easy on-demand grinding experience

On-Demand Grinding
The on-demand grinding technology delivers coffee grinds directly into the Portafilter with one touch. Simply push down on the Portafilter to activate the Grinder.
Conical Burr Grinder
The integrated Grinder offers all-in-one grinding experience. The hardened Stainless Steel Conical Burr achieves consistent grind particle sizes, which minimizes heat transfer & reduces friction due to its gentle & slow rotation.
Bean Hopper
The 250g Hopper features anti-spill gates which prevents coffee beans from escaping onto the countertop when removing. The on-board Grinder offers all-in-one grinding experience with Grinder integrated in the Espresso Machine.

Care & Cleaning Espresso Machine

The espresso-making process involves extracting oils out of coffee grinds. Deposits of grinds & oils build up over time, affecting the taste of the coffee & operation of the Espresso Machine. Purging water through the Group Head & Steam Wand, before & after making each coffee, is the easiest way to keep your Espresso Machine clean.
