La Pavoni Espresso Machine

La Pavoni espresso machines have been made in Italy by La Pavoni Spa for more than a century, and during that time the company has gained a reputation for high quality, well designed espresso machines for domestic and commercial use. Today La Pavoni espresso makers are considered to be worldwide market leaders. This article will describe three of the most popular models of La Pavoni espresso machine.

La Pavoni espresso maker Europiccola model can brew one or two cups of coffee at a time and its boiler has a capacity of 20 ounces, enough for eight cups of espresso. It is an elegant chrome plated machine with lever operation and comes with a commercial style frothing wand. The Europiccola model has a number of safety features including thermostats with reset fuses to continuously monitor internal pressure, and heat diffusers to control the buildup of heat.

La Pavoni espresso Professional Lever model is also chrome-plated and has a 38 ounce capacity boiler capable of making 16 shots of espresso. Designed in 1961, the machine is operated by a piston lever device and in addition to a frothing arm has a “cappuccino automatic” attachment to deliver frothed milk into your cup. The professional lever model has similar safety features to the Europiccola model. Both the Europiccola and Professional Lever models, being lever operated, have steam available immediately on demand.

La Pavoni espresso machine Pisa model is another semi-automatic coffee machine with 40 ounce capacity boiler and a “cappuccino automatic” attachment similar to that of the La Pavoni professional lever espresso machine. Unlike the Europiccola and Professional Lever La Pavoni espresso machines, which are lever operated, the Pisa model features a powerful pump. This pump is responsible for one of the most remarkable features of the Pisa model: the quietness of its operation. You can make an early morning cup of coffee with a Pisa model without fear of a hissing espresso machine waking the household.

These three models of La Pavoni espresso machine offer a variety of styles for those who want to make good coffee at home. If you prefer a “hands on” operation and like to have fun with an espresso machine, a lever model may appeal to the barista in you. If you like to brew cappuccinos or lattes, a machine with automatic cappuccino feature might suit you best; if you just want a quiet no-fuss espresso machine that can produce an excellent brew almost at the touch of a button, consider the Pisa. Whichever model of La Pavoni espresso machine you choose, you can be sure of a well-designed, robust, beautiful appliance.
