Crew Review: Rancilio Epoca S1 Tank Commercial Espresso

While perhaps not totally at home in your kitchen, this commercial-class machine is an excellent choice for locations that will not be doing a ton of espresso drinks but still want to be able to whip up the drinks in a timely, expert manner. The Epoca S1 comes with an internal water reservoir (no plumbing) and runs on 15 amp / 110 volts, so you don't have to have special electric outlets installed. It's not a super mobile machine, however, because it's a bit unwieldy, so may not be the best choice for caterers, but if you're staying in one spot this could be the solution for your small cafe. Watch Gail take us through the features and show us how this little baby performs.
