15 BAR Italian Pump
The thermoblock works in conjunction
with the pump to deliver the correct water
temperature at the correct pressure for
complete extraction of oils, coffee solids
and aroma. The 15 BAR pump is fitted
with a pressure relief system, to limit the
pressure to 15 bar (for protection from
over-pressure).
Thermoblock Fast Heating System
The thermoblock ensures quick heat up,
and a precise water temperature for the
best coffee extraction, and milk texturing.
An espresso is made with hot rather than
boiling water. The thermoblock heats the
water so that the espresso extracts at
92°C (just below boiling point) for optimum
extraction of oils from the coffee grinds.
Temperatures above this will burn the
grinds resulting in a bitter taste.
Italian Crema System
Dual Wall Filter Baskets create additional
back pressure creating a subtle aeration
for a great espresso extraction and steady
pour. They ensure a rich velvety espresso
with a signature layer of golden crema.
Dual Wall Filter Baskets are designed
for use with pre-ground grinds, however
they can also be used with freshly ground
grinds.
