The Bezzera Duo DE Espresso Machine is an advanced piece of equipment for coffee enthusiasts, blending the best of traditional and specialty coffee. This Italian-made, dual boiler machine is noted for its impressive functionality and reliability, bringing a rich taste of Italy into the home. It stands out with its programmable volumetric buttons, a rotary pump, and a unique group head controlled by a PID thermostat, offering baristas exceptional control over brewing variables.
One of the key features of the Bezzera Duo DE is its interactive LCD touch-screen, allowing for precise temperature control and an array of programmable features. This touch-screen is also home to the machine’s programmable pre-infusion settings and a shot timer, essential for perfecting espresso brewing. The machine is designed to be either plumbed directly or to run off its internal 4L reservoir, offering flexibility for various home setups.
The Bezzera Duo DE is also notable for its temperature stability, thanks to its chrome-plated brass group head, which is maintained by a third PID thermostat. This design is different from the E61 group found in similar models and is key to the machine's consistent performance. The machine's boilers are crafted from copper, with a 0.45L capacity for the brew boiler and a 1.05L capacity for the steam boiler, ensuring efficient and consistent heating.
The machine's steam boiler reaches up to 1.5 bars of pressure, facilitating quick and easy milk steaming. The volumetric settings enable the machine to automatically stop at the preset yield, ensuring consistent shot quality. The machine includes a large water reservoir, a dedicated brew boiler, and a steam boiler, all within a sturdy stainless steel frame.
