Overview
Looking for a home-size machine that can keep up with the occasional crowd? The Alex PID Pro espresso machine is an ideal pick for the home entertainer. This heat-exchange style espresso machine packs in a generous 2.3-liter boiler built from stainless steel—a material it shares with its double-wall case, frame and furniture. This ample service boiler offers capacity for back-to-back lattes without losing steam while keeping shots toasty thanks to its actively heated E61 brew group. All this energy is efficiently managed through a programmable PID controller that doubles as a shot timer during brewing. Other volume-focused design choices—like a plumbable pump design, ultra-deep drip tray, and wide cup rack—ensure you'll have your next dinner party well caffeinated all night long.
Features
- Limited - Limited edition Black powdercoat and walnut furniture.
- Stainless Steel Boiler - A massive 2.3-liter insulated heat-exchange boiler offers stable steam pressure and temperature.
- PID Controller - Temperature is managed electronically, offering more efficient operation than similarly-spec'd analog models.
- Shot Timer - When brewing, the front-facing PID doubles as a convenient shot timer.
- Steel Case and Frame - Polished double-wall side panels and a hard-wearing stainless frame add extra sturdiness to an already overbuilt machine.
- Rotary Pump - A commercial-caliber rotary pump brings an extended life cycle and the option to plumb-in directly to your water line.
- E61 Group - This boiler-heated design keeps your shot temp stable for better tasting coffee.
-
Pros
- Design - The matte powdercoat looks amazing—while also making the machine a snap to clean compared to its stainless counterpart.
- Big Boiler - The Alex PID's combo of size and insulation brings stability to both brew and steam temperatures.
- Front PID - The PID placement made it easy for us to adjust temperature for different coffees, or if we were steaming lattes for a crowd.
-
Cons
- And Hot - The PID placement is a double-edged sword. Useful: Yes. Distracting: Also yes. The easy access had us mucking about steam settings at any opportunity.
