With the Cafe Latte a growing favourite amongst coffee lovers the inclusion of the extra cup height clearance to the design allows the espresso to pour straight into a latte glass or your favourite mug.

What makes a good coffee?

Sunbeam have consulted with experienced coffee makers and appreciators of coffee through every stage of design, to ensure the machine delivers a great shot of espresso every time. There are many factors that contribute to the perfect espresso. The words ‘taste’ and ‘aroma’ are consistently used when describing the perfect cup.

The sweet aroma and taste of the perfect coffee is largely due to the correct combination of temperature and pressure during the brewing process. The Thermoblock heating system ensures the water is at the correct temperature, so that the full coffee flavour is extracted.

Secondly, the combination of the 15 BAR pump, dual-wall filter and stabilising baffle ensures the correct pressure at which the liquid espresso is released from the spout. The flow should consist of both liquid and cream. This cream is commonly known as the ‘crema’. The perfect crema should be thick and stable and preserve the coffee flavour, aroma and temperature.

We hope you have many enjoyable

coffee experiences with the Sunbeam Café Espresso® II.
