The Graef "baronessa" portafilter espresso machine now makes the perfect cappuccino faster. Thanks to its dual-pump system with two separate heating circuits, this model can prepare espresso and milk foam simultaneously without long heating times. Whether in the morning, after lunch or during work - nothing perks up tired spirits faster than an aromatic espresso or a cappuccino with a fine milk foam topping. With its high-gloss look and chic stainless steel and aluminum housing, the "baronessa" is an eye-catcher in any kitchen. But it doesn't just look bella figura, it also works particularly quickly. The appliance is ready for use after only a short heat-up. The Single or Doppio button can be used to prepare a single or double espresso at the touch of a button. Both the hot water and milk froth nozzles can be swiveled 360 degrees. The pressure gauge always shows the current brewing pressure during preparation. To ensure that the espresso and crema turn out perfectly, the "baronessa" relies on pre-infusion technology: this involves moistening the coffee powder before the actual extraction process. With the help of the control panel, both the water temperature (PID control) for espresso preparation and the steam humidity can be set. In addition, the cup volume can be set for one or two cups of espresso. The "baronessa" has 3 descaling programs for the brewing head and the steam or hot water lance. A programmable descaling reminder after a consumption of 12, 25 or 50 liters of water is also part of the equipment.
