Profitec is a German brand designing and manufacturing high quality espresso machines and coffee grinders. If you’re looking for the Audi of espresso machines, this is it. The Pro 700 offers a dual boilers system with a very generous 2 litre steam boiler giving plenty steam power. An accurate PID temperature controller keeps the coffee water in the 0.75 litre brew boiler at exactly the right temperature. The full-size rotary pump provides quiet and consistent pump pressure and is well-suited for optional water line hookup.
The Pro 700 is a dual boiler semi-automatic espresso machine with an E61 grouphead and PID temperature control. Just like the latest ECM Synchronika, this machine received a minor updated from the folks in Heidelberg. Besides the new knobs and black gauges, the machine can now steam at a higher pressure than the first version of the 700.
Pressure profiling: If you have mastered the art of espresso and want to advance your skills, add Profitec’s flow control. We can install the flow control at the time of purchase or at a later time.
Our take: This machine should be on your short list of dual boiler rotary pump espresso machines. It checks all the boxes at one of the lowest costs.
