From the steam joystick to ECM's hefty portafilters to the satisfying chrome brew lever, you get a ritualized mechanical espresso experience that won't wear out. Not only that, but with its clean internals, this espresso machine gets our tech team's blue ribbon. With a capable espresso grinder alongside the ECM Synchronika, you'll be able to pull shots that rival those of your favorite coffee shop. Whether you love traditional Italian-style espresso or the more subtle and nuanced specialty style, this machine has the flexibility and consistency to excel and the longevity to make it a worthy investment. It's capable of producing 2 bar steam pressure, making for commercial speed and quality, even when steaming large quantities of milk.
Our techs will bench-test this machine to ensure that no damage has occurred during shipping and that the machine is working just as it should. They will also adjust the pump pressure to pull shots at 9 bars out-of-box. That's the Clive way.
