La Pavoni has a rich history which includes production of the world’s first espresso machine back in 1905. La Pavoni semi-professional coffee machines are built by hand in Italy. The simplicity of these machines, the after sales support here in Australia, and the use of high quality components are things that I value.
The La Pavoni Cellini Mini Pro is a rock solid single boiler machine. It does not have a PID, but this isn’t a problem as the e61 group is made with 4kg of brass, and this brass acts as a thermal mass, regulating brew temperature by adding or removing heat to water travelling through it. This is the old school, low tech approach that has made the E61 brew group legendary. With this type of coffee machine the temperature variation from shot to shot is circa 2 degrees. A 2 degree variation isn't noticeable to most people, including me. I recommend this machine and I think it’s the best machine available under $2k. It’s fantastic.
This machine is great for black coffee drinkers and it’s great for milky coffee lovers as well. In fact, it’s a steaming champion. After making your espresso just flick the steam switch and 60 seconds later it’s ready to steam. After 90 seconds it reaches full steam pressure, with all the pressure you need for fantastic milk. It really is very impressive.
