More information

For those of you who see the charm of a classic lever-operated espresso machine, the Pro 800 is perfect for you. It's incredibly satisfying to pull the lever, with the extra control over each espresso is something that makes one come back.

Features and performance

The secret is something that is unique to lever machines like Pro 800, which is a real pre-infusion with low pressure that gives softer, fuller and sweeter espresso flavors. You can do this by pulling the lever to fill the brew group and applying about 1 to 1.5 bar from the pan and lightly saturating the coffee. By gently lifting the lever, a spring-loaded piston is released which gradually builds up the pressure and then decreases when the lever is retracted. In this way, a kind of pressure profiling is achieved that works perfectly to release the different flavors in a special coffee. For further control, the Pro 800 has a Gicar PID controller that is artfully hidden behind the drip tray to preserve the machine's classic aesthetics. You will be able to adjust the bridge temperature as you wish, and keep it there thanks to the stability that the PID temperature control offers.

Since it is a spring-loaded piston that produces the high brewing pressure and not a pump, the Pro 800 will be completely silent during brewing. It is one of the quieter machines on the market, as the pump can only be heard when filling the boiler via the internal water tank. If the Pro 800 is directly connected, the pressure of the water line will fill the boiler instead of the pump and thus the Pro 800 will be completely silent.

Why you should get it

With a height of about 736mm, the Pro 800 is best for those who have plenty of space to proudly display the machine. With a world-class finish with a unique brewing method, you will be able to produce fantastic espresso shots.
