Classika PID – Single Boiler System with Vibration Pump
For highest demands, perfect coffee preparation and absolute espresso pleasure
This
high-performance semi-automatic comes equipped with tools we would
normally expect of much larger prosumer machines that run for $2000 or
more.
With a custom machined E61 group head
and a PID controller, you can expect great temperature stability and
the option to adjust brew temperature to bring out more subtle flavors
in high-altitude coffee, as well as adjust steam temperature to get the
steaming power you like. To complete your set of tools is the easily
accessed pump pressure adjustment screw, which can be found beneath the
cup tray.
Single Boiler
The Classika PID brews with a single
0.75 liter stainless steel boiler, which is an important consideration
when it comes to capacity versus needs. the Classika PID is a
single-boiler machine, you can pull shot after shot but you can not brew
and steam at the same time like you can with a heat exchanger machine.
You’ll need to cool and fill the boiler after steaming but it is an easy
process and doesn’t take long. Expect warm up times of about 15 minutes until brew-ready. Steam is ready in just 40 seconds. This makes the Classika PID good for
espresso lovers who want perfectly crafted shots at greatly reduced cost
and still have room on your counter for a nice grinder.
PID Controller
Control boiler temperature for searching out
those elusive coffee flavors. The integrated shot timer compliments this
by giving you a live readout of how long you’ve been pulling your shot.
E61 Brew Group
The E61 grouphead is constantly heated with
water from the thermosyphon system for temperature stability. It also
features a pre-infusion cylinder to aid in the extraction process.
Handmade & High-End Construction
The machine is housed
in mirror-finished, stainless steel panels. It rests on a one-piece
internal steel frame, which protects it from bending or bowing during
shipping or as the result of continuous use.
