Pros
Holy Shots, Batman
- Once you get the hang of this espresso machine, you'll be producing high quality espresso shots that rival any Italian cafe's
Gorgeous Design
- The chrome and wood show off the Stradivari-inspired design of this espresso machine, making it a fetching conversation piece that is perfectly at home on your counter top
Larger Boiler
- Some manual espresso machines have temperature regulation quirks, but this new addition to La Pavoni's lever machines features a larger boiler, which tends to regulate temperature a bit better
Cons
Where There's a Will...
- It will take some time to get your shot perfected on this espresso machine, but it's well worth the effort (we think!) in the end
Burr Grinder Required
- You'll need a fine, even consistency in your coffee grounds in order to effectively pull great shots from this espresso machine, so it could be a downside if you're not up for an additional investment in a high end burr grinder
A Little Light in the Loafers
- Since you're manually extracting the shot, the lever does require some level of force on your part and the base of the machine isn't super heavy; while heavier than other manual espresso machines by La Pavoni, it still isn't as stable as we would like it to be
How it Works
Grind, tamp and extract! To extract, you'll first pull the lever up in order to build pressure from the steam in the boiler and load the water, then slowly push down in order to force the water through the espresso. You can learn all about how this espresso machine works by reading La Pavoni's
user manual
