Need-To-Know
What is it?
The Profitec Pro 300 is a German designed dual boiler, saturated group head, reservoir only espresso machine with a vibratory pump and a built-in PID and shot timer.
Who is it for?

For those that don't plan on making more than a few cappuccinos or americanos at a time, this is the only machine you'll ever need.
Why do we carry it?
Since its release, the Pro 300 has quickly asserted it's role as the key player in the entry-level espresso machine market. With all the features that most home baristas want and a footprint that will fit in any kitchen, it's hard to beat. Combine that with German design and build quality and you have an investment that'll keep you caffeinated for years to come.
