These programmable features will make expert coffee making as simple as pouring hot water into a mug! The extensive list of features includes a programmable portafilter integrated into a tapered mill. The tapered mill finely grinds down the coffee beans into a fine powder consistency, perfect for brewing. You can programme how much water per cup you want individually, which is handy if you’re creating different coffees of different strengths. There is a pre-brew function, and one of the best features of this machine is the manometer control function for specific and variable brewing pressures, giving you full control over the entire coffee-making process.
Some people may not be aware of the importance when it comes to an ULKA espresso pump and its use.. the pump applies high amounts of pressure to the coffee powder to extract the crema (the froth on top of your coffee) and also give a full flavour extraction. This 15-bar pump is one of the most powerful pumps for normal coffee-making, extracting and brewing in efficient time without compromising on the end result. There is also an electronic PID control that monitors water temperatures accurately to ensure you do not burn the coffee grounds, leaving you with a burnt and horrible-tasting coffee.
This machine can do so much more than just make Espresso, its capabilities stretch to Latte Macchiato, Cappuccinos, Americanos, Cafe Creme and even tea. This is possible with its dual-circuit thermo-block system which dispenses espresso and milk foam at the same time and for making teas and European tea and coffee, there is a separate hot water outlet also attached. Not only can you create a wide variety of drinks, but you can also tailor them to your taste by using one of the 30 grind settings!
The design of this machine is magnificent and extremely well-thought-out. This machine has a built-in heated warming plate to warm up coffee cups before use.. if you pour hot espresso into a cold cup it destabilises the temperature and may create a bitter-tasting cold coffee. The milk-foaming spout pivots 360 degrees and is easily cleaned. Another aspect of the design is that the fresh bean container can hold up to 260g of coffee beans, meaning you do not need to continuously refill your container, it will make over 30 shots of espresso!
What's more, a generous amount of accessories have been included in this amazing price to help you hit the ground running as soon as your coffee machine arrives! Inside the box, you will receive a stainless steel tamper, a single-walled filter insert for 1 and 2 cups, a milk foam jug and a cleaning tool.
