The Nuova Simonelli Musica is a beautifully designed stainless steel machine that harbors professional functionality combined with an easy-to-use button interface. As for its espresso-making qualities, a programmed pre-infusion system gets a full extraction from your grind and brews consistent espresso shots every time. The steam wand on this machine is one of the best we've ever seen, featuring an easy to use lever that opens up a high-pressure steam flow so you can master both lattes and cappuccinos.
- Heat Exchanger - The Musica uses heat exchanger functionality, which ensures that each espresso shot is brewed at a consistent temperature to give you the best tasting shot possible.
- Beautiful Interface - The Musica's interface displays beautiful back lit programmable buttons. With intuitive functionality, you aren't left guessing what buttons brew and which knobs steam.
- Professional Portafilter - This machine uses a high quality and durable 58mm portafilter.
- Great Steam Pressure - High pressure steam gives you the option to froth your milk almost any way you like.
- Cup Warmer - The top of this machine functions perfectly as a cup warmer, with about enough space to hold nine shot glasses cappuccino cups.

Pros
- Excellent Shots - Once you tweak the machine to your liking, it will make drinks just how you want them every time with little to no variation from the settings you have chosen.
- Aesthetics - The Musica has a practically all stainless-steel construction, which looks great on any counter.
- Steam Performance - This machine will have your milk hot and frothed in no time. The actual knob to turn on the steam wand is one of our new favorites. It features a simple slide up and down, which opens up the valve.
-
Cons
- Large Size - The size of this machine is quite large, so you'll need to measure the space in your kitchen.
- Water Reservoir Design - Some users may not like the water reservoir design. The water spigot tends to spray everywhere.

How Does it Compare?
An SCG Crew favorite, the Musica stacks up favorably against any espresso machine out there. And you can't diss the disco lights!

Tips and Tricks
