MODEL KPES100

ESPRESSO MACHINE FEATURES

Portafilter

Commercial-size portafilter features chrome-plated brass construction and an easy-to-grip flared handle. Attaches to the brew head with a firm twist to the right.

Filter Baskets

Stainless steel filter baskets snap into portafilter. Use the small capacity basket for a single shot (1 oz.) of espresso, and the large capacity basket for double shots (2 oz.). The small basket also accommodates paper coffee pods.

Frothing Pitcher

The 81⁄2 oz. capacity stainless steel pitcher is invaluable for frothing.

Tamper

Evenly tamps coffee into the filter basket.

Coffee Scoop and Shower-Screen Brush

Use one level scoop of coffee for each shot (ounce) of espresso. The shower-screen brush will help keep the brew head and shower screen free of grounds.

Not Shown:

Dual Boilers

Separate boilers eliminate the wait single-boiler machines require when switching between frothing and brewing. Boiler heating elements never touch water: they are located on the outside of the boiler for superb brew temperature consistency and burnout- resistance. Quick heating boilers reach operating temperatures in less than 6 minutes.

Drip-Free System with 3-Way Solenoid Valve

A 3-way solenoid valve virtually eliminates drips by instantly reducing pressure in the brew group when the pump is switched off. The portafilter can be removed immediately after brewing without a messy spray of coffee grounds.

15 Bar Pump

Self-priming water pump comfortably supplies the 9 bars (130 psi) of pressure that perfect espresso demands.
