EPBB-8 Features: A great addition to any kitchen, this manual (lever) espresso maker is perfect for home use. Its easy-to-use hands-on lever and piston operation allows you to make 8 cups of espresso (2-ounce servings). Crafted with a metal body and base, the machine is available in a sleek silver finish.

Dimensions: This compact espresso maker measures 12 inches in height, 7 inches in width, and 11 inches in depth, weighing 14 pounds.

Barista-Style Espresso: True baristas "pull" an espresso with a lever instead of pressing a button and relying on an automatic pump. This Italian-made machine gives you the control to force water through the coffee yourself, using the lever to precisely adjust the speed. This allows you to achieve the full flavor and thick crema that mark an ideal espresso drink.

Milk Frothing and Heating: A steam wand heats milk for hot chocolate and creates foam for cappuccinos, lattes, and other coffee drinks. An alternate wand with a frothing attachment also produces heaps of foam automatically.

Water Capacity and Heating: The water tank holds 20 ounces, enough to make 8 cups before needing to be refilled. The heating element has a maximum rating of 1,000 watts and a minimum of 800 watts, ensuring the water reaches the correct temperature for producing crema. A glass tube allows you to monitor the water level, and a thermostat triggers a green light when the water is at the ideal temperature.

Safety Features: An internal fuse, which can be reset in the base, prevents the machine from overheating.

Appearance and Warranty: This version of La Pavoni's Europiccola model features a gleaming chrome finish with black plastic accents and a durable black acrylic base with a polished-granite effect. It comes with a 1-year warranty.

Note: The machine may arrive with water inside from the manufacturer's pressure test, which is a normal occurrence and does not indicate a problem with the machine.
