The grinder is where espresso quality is made or lost.

Burr geometry, motor speed, and dosing precision determine the particle distribution in your puck — and that determines what comes out of the machine. Invest in the grind, and the machine follows.

The Engineering

Stepless Micrometric Adjustment

Infinite grind size adjustment with no click stops — dial in the exact grind your recipe requires, not the closest available setting.

Commercial-Grade Motor

High-torque motor handles continuous commercial loads without heat buildup. Consistent particle size across a full day of service — no performance degradation under sustained use.

Coffee Cart Compatible

Compact footprint and consistent performance make it a proven choice for mobile setups. Reliable output on location, at markets, and during events.

Burr Quality

Precision-machined burrs deliver consistent particle size across the grind range. Uniform distribution means more even extraction — and better-tasting espresso in the cup.

Cleaning & Maintenance

Daily Cleaning

Wipe and purge the steam wand after each use to prevent milk buildup, rinse portafilters and filter baskets, clean the drip tray, and backflush the group head to remove coffee oils and residue.

Weekly Maintenance

Soak portafilters, baskets, and shower screens in an approved cleaning solution, inspect group head gaskets and screens, and perform a deeper backflush to keep internal components clean.

Long-Term Care

Maintain proper water filtration to prevent scale buildup and descale the machine as needed based on water quality and usage to ensure long-lasting performance and consistent espresso quality.

Power Requirements
  • Voltage: 110V
  • Wattage: 350W
  • Electrical: Standard North American outlet (dedicated circuit recommended)

Summary: It can run on a standard 110V outlet, making it well suited for coffee carts, small cafés, offices, and home espresso bars. Because it draws 350 watts, it’s best to plug it into a dedicated 15–20 amp circuit, especially if you’re running other equipment (grinder, fridge, hot water tower) nearby. This setup is ideal for mobile coffee carts, where higher-voltage (220V) power isn’t always available.
