Overview
Modern Italian design in a compact footprint, the Stone Plus Espresso Machine packs in all the tech you need to make espresso that rocks. Designed as a 'walk-up' espresso machine, the Stone is optimized to make excellent espresso without the need to wait half an hour, monitor temps, or run flushing routines to hit your target. A custom-designed 1000W, 1.5L steam boiler encases a calibrated brew coil designed to heat just below brew temperature. From there, a 200W cartridge heater built into the group brings your brew water up to its final temp—all actuated seamlessly with the twist of the brew paddle. This dual-element system also brings the Stone up from cold to brew and steam temperatures at a blazing fast 10-minutes—less than half the time it takes many E61s. Controls couldn't be simpler, brewing is actuated from a group-mounted paddle while steaming uses a standard knob and 2-hole steam wand setup. Maybe most unique, the Stone Plus features a black base color with swappable magnetic side panels, called Slabs. Designed to keep your machine current in your kitchen for years to come, additional panel colors and finishes can be matched, mixed, and swapped from Stone's ever-changing selection.
