PREMIUM FEATURES AND BENEFITS

UPGRADED BRASS BOILER FOR IMPROVED THERMAL STABILITY

The Classic Pro E24 introduces a brass boiler—replacing previous aluminum designs—which delivers enhanced thermal stability and increased capacity. Brass, known for its heat-retention properties, maintains optimal brewing temperature even during continuous use, ensuring each shot of espresso is perfectly extracted. This upgraded boiler also increases steam power, supporting consecutive drinks for gatherings or a seamless solo brew.

PROFESSIONAL STEAM WAND FOR CAFÉ-QUALITY MICROFOAM

Craft lattes, cappuccinos, and other milk-based drinks with our advanced steam wand. Equipped with a two-hole tip, it provides powerful, steady steam for creating a smooth, velvety microfoam—ideal for pouring latte art or simply enjoying the perfect milk texture. Its precision and ease of control give you the ability to craft drinks that rival your favorite café.

DURABLE 58MM STAINLESS STEEL PORTAFILTER

A staple in professional espresso machines, the 58mm portafilter in the Pro E24 is crafted from stainless steel to withstand daily use while maintaining a flawless appearance. This upgrade from the previous chrome-plated design complements the polished steel frame, creating a durable and aesthetically unified machine that fits seamlessly into any kitchen setup.

3-WAY SOLENOID VALVE FOR CONSISTENT, SMOOTH BREWS

The integrated 3-way solenoid valve provides constant water pressure regulation, ensuring a precise and balanced espresso extraction. By instantly releasing pressure after brewing, it dries the coffee puck, reducing mess and simplifying cleanup—allowing you to quickly transition from brewing to enjoying your espresso.

QUIET, REFINED BREWING EXPERIENCE

Thanks to a redesigned internal foundation, the Pro E24 minimizes noise from the vibratory pump, making each brewing session quieter and more pleasant. This feature enhances the ambiance of your morning routine, allowing you to enjoy the sounds of brewing without disruptive noise.

VISIBLE WATER LEVEL WITH IMPROVED DRIP TRAY STABILITY

Monitor water levels easily with a visible reservoir window, ensuring you’re always prepared for brewing. The newly designed drip tray provides enhanced stability and greater capacity, reducing the frequency of emptying and minimizing spills, allowing you to focus on crafting the perfect shot.

INTUITIVE ROCKER SWITCH CONTROLS FOR EASY OPERATION

Control your brew with a set of dedicated rocker switches for on/off, espresso, and steam functions. The tactile, easy-to-navigate buttons offer precision and simplicity, allowing both new users and experienced baristas to confidently create exceptional espresso drinks with every use.

Beverages Making - FAQs

Q: How do I make a traditional Italian espresso?

• Choose your favorite coffee blend (freshly ground for the richest flavor).
• Grind the coffee to the perfect consistency.
• Insert the filter into the filter-holder and tamp evenly.

For the best froth, use cold whole milk (around 5°C/41°F) with at least 3% protein and 3.5% fat. This combination helps create dense and creamy froth. Alternative milk types like semi-skimmed, lactose-free, and soy also work well.
