Great espresso is a dance of artistry and technique that is intimately tied to the performance of the espresso machine. The KitchenAid® PRO LINE™ Series Espresso Machine blends commercial quality with innovative design to bring a new experience of espresso into the home.

Dual boilers generate an optimal brewing temperature and abundant steam for frothing without the wait single-boiler machines require when switching tasks. The commercial-size brew group is chrome-plated brass for exceptional temperature stability, and the

self-priming water pump easily supplies the 9 bars of pressure perfect espresso demands. A 3-way solenoid valve instantly vents pressure after brewing, preventing a messy spray of coffee grounds when the portafilter is removed.

Of course, a new experience of espresso is also a new experience of convenience.

Separate stations for brewing and frothing provide an immense workspace. Instead of simple indicator lights, dial gauges provide a continuous readout of boiler temperatures. The frothing arm swivels horizontally and vertically for convenient use, and the volume of steam is fully adjustable.

The outstanding style and performance of the PRO LINE™ Series Espresso Machine is matched by a rugged die-cast metal construction that will last for years.

The KitchenAid® PRO LINE™ Series: commercial quality for the discriminating home chef. From the company distinguished by its legendary craftsmanship.
