For less than a Pasquini or a top model Saeco Primea you get a machine that actually automatically froths the milk for you. Simple to use, with an iPod like Ring knob and digital display you quickly scroll through the menu to make the best espresso cappuccino and latte.

Designed and manufactured in the UK by two developers with over a combined 50 years experience in the home espresso market there are elements you just can’t find anywhere else.
