Description
Overview
The Strega truly does set the standards of lever machines.The 58mm commercial sized portafilter is seen in very few home lever machines, which makes following recipes a lot easier.
Luigi Bezzera is the original creator of Espresso. Invented in 1901, it wasn’t until 1906 that the original espresso machine was shown in a public setting at the Milan International Fair. Now 4 generations later, Bezzera still continues to innovate on what was created over 100 years ago with modern designs for the modern home.
Premium features can be seen in all parts of the machine. Its ability to be plumbed in for ease of use and a silent experience. Additionally, the joystick controls that Bezzera is so incredibly fond of allows you to harness your machine’s steam boiler easily. This machine has continued to keep classic designs while bringing them into a modern light.
If you’re someone who enjoys finessing your espresso and profiling each shot, the Strega is a machine that will give you professional quality drinks. Its large water tank means you won’t need to spend a lot of time refilling your machine. The heat exchange boiler is going to provide lots of steam for any milk based drinks you may make. It will automatically refill your boiler with water from the tank, which means there’s no interruptions to your workflow.
