The Barista's espresso machine
Reliability, stability, and versatility are the cornerstones to which the Strada EP line of machines was produced. With the Strada EP's electronically controlled gear pumps, the barista is provided with the ability to precisely, and directly control the pressure profile. This direct control allows the barista to bring out different flavor components which affect the balance and body of the shot, thus producing a rounder, softer espresso that highlights brightness, sweetness and delicate notes. The Strada EP enables the barista to create that perfect expression of a particular single origin coffee as an espresso, and reproduce a flavor profile that may be difficult to attain at a constant 9 bars of pressure.
